Answer:

6.66 hours, that is, 6 hours and 40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mike can plow a field in 12 hours, we plows 1/12 of the field each hour.

If Phil can plow a field in 15 hours, we plows 1/15 of the field each hour.

So if they are working together, they can plow (1/12) + (1/15) of the field each hour, that is:

(1/12) + (1/15) = (5 + 4) / 60 = 9 / 60 = 3 / 20 = 1 / 6.66

So if they work together, they can plow the field in 6.66 hours, that is, 6 hours and 40 minutes.

The perimeter of a standard-sized rectangular rug is 44 feet. The width is 2 feet
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+b)

Let the length be x

then width  = x-2

44 ft = 2(l+b)

44ft = 2(x + x-2)

44ft  =  2(2x-2)

44 ft = 4x -4

44+4 = 4x

48 = 4x

x = 48/4 = 12

Length = <u>x = 12</u>

Width = <u>x-2 = 12-2 =10</u>

<u></u>

<u>Length is 12 and width is 10</u>

<u></u>

<u>check if its correct </u>

2(l+b) = 44

2(12+10)=44

2(22) = 44

If in terms of a and b, then

az - 17 = -4z - b

z(a-4) = -b+17

z = (-b + 17)/(a+4)
