1/4 + 1/3 + 1/6 = 3/12 + 4/12 + 2/12 = 9/12 reduces to 3/4...leaving 1/4 for worker z.

answer is : 1/4 hrs was allocated to worker z

Calculate the total area of the shaded region.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

so hmmm seemingly the graphs meet at -2 and +2 and 0, let's check

\stackrel{f(x)}{2x^3-x^2-5x}~~ = ~~\stackrel{g(x)}{-x^2+3x}\implies 2x^3-5x=3x\implies 2x^3-8x=0 \\\\\\ 2x(x^2-4)=0\implies x^2=4\implies x=\pm\sqrt{4}\implies x= \begin{cases} 0\\ \pm 2 \end{cases}

so f(x) = g(x) at those points, so let's take the integral of the top - bottom functions for both intervals, namely f(x) - g(x) from -2 to 0 and g(x) - f(x) from 0 to +2.

\stackrel{f(x)}{2x^3-x^2-5x}~~ - ~~[\stackrel{g(x)}{-x^2+3x}]\implies 2x^3-x^2-5x+x^2-3x \\\\\\ 2x^3-8x\implies 2(x^3-4x)\implies \displaystyle 2\int\limits_{-2}^{0} (x^3-4x)dx \implies 2\left[ \cfrac{x^4}{4}-2x^2 \right]_{-2}^{0}\implies \boxed{8} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\stackrel{g(x)}{-x^2+3x}~~ - ~~[\stackrel{f(x)}{2x^3-x^2-5x}]\implies -x^2+3x-2x^3+x^2+5x \\\\\\ -2x^3+8x\implies 2(-x^3+4x) \\\\\\ \displaystyle 2\int\limits_{0}^{2} (-x^3+4x)dx \implies 2\left[ -\cfrac{x^4}{4}+2x^2 \right]_{0}^{2}\implies \boxed{8} ~\hfill \boxed{\stackrel{\textit{total area}}{8~~ + ~~8~~ = ~~16}}

Tom earned $72 walking dogs for 6 hours. How many total hours will it take tom to earn $96 in all? Solve using unit rates
slava [35]

Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

Tom earned $72 walking dogs for 6 hours

amount earned = $72

time taken = 6 hours

Required

The time taken to earn $96

Step two:

let us find the unit rate of his earning

unit rate = 72/6

= 12 per hour

 

In 1 hour Tom earns $12

in x hours he will earn $96

cross multiply we have

96*1= 12x

divide both sides by 12

x= 96/12

x=8 hours

Shannon's family is going to install a custom swing set in the backyard. There are 5 kinds of swings and 3 kinds of slides, and
asambeis [7]

Answer:

15 different swing sets

Step-by-step explanation:

The swing set is composed by one swing and one slide.

There is 5 different types of swing, so there are 5 possibilities to fill the one swing we need.

There are 3 different types of slides, so there are 3 possibilities to fill the one slide we need.

So, to find the total number of swing sets, we just need to multiply the swing possibilities and the slide possibilities:

Number of sets = 5 * 3 = 15 different sets
