Let n be the amount of time it takes william to cut the lawn. Then Shelly takes
n-2 hours. So:
1/n+1/n-2=1/3
3(n-2)+3n=n²-2n
6n-6=n²-2n
n²-8n+6=0
Using the quadratic formula, we get a positive value of 7.1623 hrs as the amount of time william takes working alone, and 5.1623 as the amount  of time Shelly takes working alone

A triangular pyramid has a height of 18 yards and a base with an area of 330 square yards. What is the volume of the pyramid?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

option C. V=1,980\ yd^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the triangular pyramid is equal to

V=\frac{1}{3}Bh

where

B is the area of the triangular base

h is the height of the pyramid

In this problem we have

B=330\ yd^{2}

h=18\ yd

substitute in the formula

V=\frac{1}{3}(330)(18)=1,980\ yd^{3}

Please help me. these problems<br>​
jeyben [28]

Answer:

1st problem:

Converges to 6

2nd problem:

Converges to 504

Step-by-step explanation:

You are comparing to \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} a_1(r)^{k-1}

You want the ratio r to be between -1 and 1.

Both of these problem are so that means they both have a sum and the series converges to that sum.

The formula for computing a geometric series in our form is \frac{a_1}{1-r} where a_1 is the first term.

The first term of your first series is 3 so your answer will be given by:

\frac{a_1}{1-r}=\frac{3}{1-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{3}{\frac{1}{2}=6

The second series has r=1/6 and a_1=420 giving me:

\frac{420}{1-\frac{1}{6}}=\frac{420}{\frac{5}{6}}=420(\frac{6}{5})=504.
