Emily can rake 1/5 of the lawn in an hr.
Andrew can rake 1/8 of the lawn in an hr.

Together, they rake 1 yardful. x represents time in hours.
(1/5)x+ (1/8)x= 1

Multiply all values by 40
8x+5x=40
13x=40
x= 40/13
x=3.0769...

Final answer: 3 hours

Complete the ordered pair for the given equation. (_,-1);y=-3/5x-7
Fiesta28 [93]
Hi!

So for this problem, we're given the y-coordinate and we can plug that in for y in the equation. So let's do that

-1 = -3/5x - 7
6 = -3/5x
30 = -3x
-10 = x

The missing coordinate would be x, assuming that the equation was y = (-3/5)x - 7

Divide and simplify 3/4÷2/3
Ne4ueva [31]
To start off, you have to change 2/3 into 3/2 and then multiply it by 3/4. (Which the equation becomes into 3/4 × 3/2.) Then solve 3/4 × 3/2 =9/8 or 1 and 1/8.
