If it takes one person 4 hours to paint a room and another person 12 hours to
paint the same room, working together they could paint the room even quicker, it
turns out they would paint the room in 3 hours together. This can be reasoned by
the following logic, if the first person paints the room in 4 hours, she paints 14 of
the room each hour. If the second person takes 12 hours to paint the room, he
paints 1 of the room each hour. So together, each hour they paint 1 + 1 of the 12 4 12
room. Using a common denominator of 12 gives: 3 + 1 = 4 = 1. This means 12 12 12 3
each hour, working together they complete 13 of the room. If 13 is completed each hour, it follows that it will take 3 hours to complete the entire room.
This pattern is used to solve teamwork problems. If the first person does a job in A, a second person does a job in B, and together they can do a job in T (total). We can use the team work equation.
Teamwork Equation: A1 + B1 = T1
Often these problems will involve fractions. Rather than thinking of the first frac-
tion as A1 , it may be better to think of it as the reciprocal of A’s time.
World View Note: When the Egyptians, who were the first to work with frac- tions, wrote fractions, they were all unit fractions (numerator of one). They only used these type of fractions for about 2000 years! Some believe that this cumber- some style of using fractions was used for so long out of tradition, others believe the Egyptians had a way of thinking about and working with fractions that has been completely lost in history.
Answer:
c = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
3(c+5)=12
3 × c = 3c
3 × 5 = 15
3c + 15 = 12
<u> - 15 -15</u>
3c = -3
c = -3 ÷ 3 = -1
Check:
3(-1+5)=12
-3 + 15 = 12
The series 1022,1032,1042,1052....
a1=a=1022
d=a2-a1=1032-1022=10
n=5 as 5th term
Sn= a+(n-1)d
= 1022+(5-1)10
= 1022+40
= 1062
Next house will have 1062 as number.
