Define rates at which the individuals paint.
Bill: x = 1/8 signs/h
Bob: y = (2 signs)/(8 h) = 1/4 signs/h
Barry: z = (4/3 signs)/(8 h) = 1/6 signs/h
The job is to paint 2 signs, working together.
In the first 3 hours, the amount painted is
(x+y+z signs/h)*(3 h) = (1/8 + 1/4 + 1/6)*3 = 13/8 signs
Remaining: 2 - 13/8 = 3/8 signs
Barry quits.
In the next 1/2 hour (30 minutes), the amount painted is
(x + y signs/h)*(0.5 h) = (1/8 + 1/4)*0.5 = 3/16 signs
Remaining: 3/8 - 3/16 = 3/16 signs
Now Bob quits.
The time for Bill to finish the job is
(3/16 signs)/(1/8 signs/h) = 3/2 h
Answer: Bill finishes the job in 1.5 hours (or 1 hour, 30 minutes)
Answer: NO
Step-by-step explanation:
The line that separates the two part is a dashed line which means that the point on the lines are not in the solution
EXTRA: ONLY IF IT IS A SOLID LINE, THE POINTS WILL BE A SOLUTION
(-2,0) is on the dashed line, so it is not a solution
Answer:
Slope is -0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
(0,4.5) (2,4)
<em>-5 4/9 is one way.</em>
-5 = -45/9, so -45/9 + 4/9. <em>-41/9 is another way.</em>
-41/9 = -4.5555.... , so -4.5555... is another way.
<h2>-5 4/9 , -41/9 , -4.5555....</h2>
