Together, they refinish 1/8th table per hour. Alone, the cousin does 1/12th table per hour. So:
1/8-1/12=1/24
1/1/24=24 hours for the person to finish the table by themself

that equals 8 parts

if you divide 60 by 8 that's 7.5

times 7.5 by 5 and you get 37.5

don't know how u get half a person but that's just how it is

40 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST!! I NEED THIS DONE ASAP
inna [77]

(a) Answer: One solution.

Explanation: two lines that have same slope with opposite sign will necessarily cross each other at a single point, as one is "pointing uphill" and the other "downhill."

(b)  Answer: Infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

2x + 3y = 5.5

4x + 6y = 11   | divide by 2

-->

2x + 3y = 5.5

2x + 3y = 5.5

--> equations are identical.

2x + 3y = 2x + 3y

so any (x,y) will satisfy this equation. This means infinitely many solutions.

(c) Answer: One solution

Explanation:

Continuing the two lines it becomes obvious they will cross at one point (the solution)

(d) Answer: No solution

Explanation: If the two lines are parallel, they will never cross (by definition of "parallel"). Therefore there will be no solution to the corresponding linear system.

10x^3 y^-5 z^-2 if x=3 y=2 and z=5 express your answer as a reduced fraction
sineoko [7]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\dfrac{27}{80}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Put x = 3, y = 2 and z = 5 to the given expression 10x^3y^{-5}z^{-2}:

10(3^3)(2^{-5})(5^{-2})\qquad\text{use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\\\=\dfrac{10(27)}{(2^5)(5^2)}=\dfrac{270}{(32)(25)}=\dfrac{270}{800}=\dfrac{27}{80}

The coordinates of rhombus ABCD are A(–4, –2), B(–2, 6), C(6, 8), and D(4, 0). What is the area of the rhombus? Round to the nea
a_sh-v [17]
Check the picture below.

so the rhombus has the diagonals of AC and BD, now keeping in mind that the diagonals bisect each, namely they cut each other in two equal halves, let's find the length of each.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
A(\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\qquad 
C(\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{8})\qquad \qquad 
%  distance value
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
AC=\sqrt{[6-(-4)]^2+[8-(-2)]^2}\implies AC=\sqrt{(6+4)^2+(8+2)^2}
\\\\\\
AC=\sqrt{10^2+10^2}\implies AC=\sqrt{10^2(2)}\implies \boxed{AC=10\sqrt{2}}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
B(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad 
D(\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0})\qquad \qquad BD=\sqrt{[4-(-2)]^2+[0-6]^2}
\\\\\\
BD=\sqrt{(4+2)^2+(-6)^2}\implies BD=\sqrt{6^2+6^2}
\\\\\\
BD=\sqrt{6^2(2)}\implies \boxed{BD=6\sqrt{2}}

that simply means that each triangle has a side that is half of 10√2 and another side that's half of 6√2.

namely, each triangle has a "base" of 3√2, and a "height" of 5√2, keeping in mind that all triangles are congruent, then their area is,

\bf \stackrel{\textit{area of the four congruent triangles}}{4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(3\sqrt{2})(5\sqrt{2}) \right]\implies 4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(15\cdot (\sqrt{2})^2) \right]}\implies 4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(15\cdot 2) \right]
\\\\\\
4[15]\implies 60
