Answer:
4.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
You times .75 and 6 and you should get 4.5 miles
Cody ALONE = 8 hours
Kaitlyn ALONE = 6 hours
Let Joseph ALONE take j hours
Cody ALONE in 1 HOUR = 1/8 of the work Kaitlyn ALONE in 1 hour = 1/6 of the work Joseph ALONE in 1 HOUR = 1/j of the work
Since TOGETHER they take X hours, in 1 hour TOGETHER they complete 1 / X of the work
1/8 + 1/6 + 1/j = 1/X
1/j = 1/X - 1/8 - 1/6 = (24 - 3X - 4X ) /24X = (24 - 7X ) / 24X
j = 24X / ( 24- 7X )
After completing the work value of X will be known , calculate j from the above formula ANSWER
Answer:
x = -36, y = 6, z = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
The requirement x/z = -z means x = -z².
The requirement x/y = z means x = yz.
These two requirements together mean yz = -z², or y = -z.
The requirements that z/2 and z/3 are integers mean that z is a multiple of 2·3 = 6. The smallest magnitude non-zero multiple is z=-6 (since we also require z < -z).
Using z=-6, we have x = -z² = -36; y = -(-6) = 6.
For some positive integer n, ...
... x = -36n², y = 6n, z = -6n.
