The answer is <span>twelve sevenths (12/7)
</span>
x - the job<span>
t - time to do the job x
</span><span>Robin can mow a lawn in 3 hours: x/3 * t
</span><span>Brady can mow the same lawn in 4 hours: x/4 * t
</span><span>If they work together, the total work will
be the sum of their speeds:
</span>x = x/3 * t + x/4 * t = (x/3 + x/4)*t = (4x/12 + 3x/12) * t = 7x/12 * t
x = 7x/12 * t
Divide both sides by x:
x/x = 7x/12 * t/x
1 = 7/12 t
t = 1 : 7/12
t = 12/7
The answer is 8. this is because 6/1=6 so 48/6= 8
Answer:
MN = 34, x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
look at the file, cut off numbers are:
37
37
36
If x is the first of the integers then the statement is:
(x) , (x+2) , (x+4) , (x+6)
This means that the smallest is x and the largest is x + 6
so:
3(x) + 2(x+6) = 293
3x + 2x + 12 = 293
5x = 281
x = 56.2
This gives us a none integer (decimal)
What now?
Wait remember how x started as the lowest? what if x was the highest instead?
x, x-2, x-4, x-6
so:
3(x-6) + 2(x) = 293
5x = 315
x = 62.2
This is as close as have gotten to the answer
Cant seem to get an integer.
Maybe error in the question or some bad math on my part.
Yeah it really be like that sometimes, you gotta try girl
