Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.

So:
a) p=45(1-0.06)^t=45*0.94^t
Where t is the number of weeks.

We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 = 31psi

Answer:

t=34.64 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

let Arya be A, Robot be B and Combined time be t

A+B=\frac{1}{t}\\A=\frac{1}{t+120}\\B=\frac{1}{t+10}\\\frac{1}{t+10}+\frac{1}{t+120}=t\\\frac{1}{t+10}=\frac{t+120-t}{t+120}\\t^2+120t=120t+1200\\t^2=1200\\t=34.6410
