Hello! Your answer is B, 10 minutes.
Say the x = minutes taken to do the job. You can set up an equation like this to solve this.
This is representative of the situation. The fractions each represent <u>how much each person does in a minute</u>, and when they're multiplied by x, that's <u>how much of the project they get done</u> based off of the minutes they work together on the job. Add the two together, and you get <u>how much of the project is finished in x amount of time</u>. Set it equal to 1, as you are looking for 100% completion.
Once you have this equation, find a common denominator, add, and solve.
Therefore, it will take them 10 minutes to do the job together.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
<h2>10. C. (2, -1)</h2><h2>11. B. (-2, -4)</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
10.
The y values cancel out if you add the equations
5x = 10
x = 2
plug in x
2 - 2y = 4
-2y = 2
y=-1
Answer: C. (2, -1)
11.
In order to get terms to cancel out, multiply the top by 3 and bottom by 2
The y values cancel out if you add the equations
10x = -20
x = -2
plug in x
6(-2) - 2y = -4
-12 - 2y = -4
-2y = 8
y = -4
Answer: B. (-2, -4)
