Answer: it will take the faster computer 15 minutes to do the job on its own.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the number of minutes it will take the faster computer to do the job on its own. It means that the rate at which it does the job per minute is 1/t
If it takes the slower computer 30 minutes to do the job on its own. It means that the rate at which it does the job on its own per minute is 1/30
By working together, they would work simultaneously and their individual rates are additive. Working together it takes two computers 10 minutes to send out a company's email. It means that the rate at which both computers work together per minute is 1/10 Therefore,
1/t + 1/30 = 1/10
Cross multiplying by 30x, it becomes
3x = x + 30
3x - x = 30
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15 minutes
Answer:
5 felt pads.
7 cards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
- The total number of items is 12
- So let the felt sheets be x
- Let the cards = y
Equations and Solution
x + y = 12
Now the price is 7.75 that she has to pay for the 12 items. She wants to come back with 0 dollars.
0.5x + 0.75y = 7.75 Multiply this equation by 2
x + 1.5y = 15.50 write the first equation underneath and subtract.
<u>x + y = 12</u>
.5y = 3 Divide by 0.5
y = 3/0.5
y = 7
So she can get 7 cards.
x + y = 12
x + 7 = 12
x = 12 - 7
x = 5
So she can buy 5 felt pads.
All the primes of 24 is 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,and 24
It was reduced because as you can see on the scale the actual picture has larger spaces between the numbers.
