Answer:
1 hour 56 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Time taken by Lucy = 3 hours 15 minutes = 3.25 hours
Time taken by brother = 4 hours 45 minutes = 4.75 hours
Rate = 1 / time taken
Lucy's rate = 1 / 3.25
Brother's rate = 1 / 4.75
Combined rate = Lucy's rate + brother's rate
Combined rate = 1/3.25 + 1/4.75
Combined rate = 0.5182186
Time taken if they work together = 1/ combined rate
= 1 / 0.5182186
= 1.9296 hours
= 1 hour (0.9296 * 60) minutes
= 1 hour 56 minutes (approximately)
Answer:
a) y = 6x - 3
b) 1/3y = 2x -1
The first thing you need to do is isolate (y) in the second equation
3 x (1/3y) = 3 x (2x - 1)
y =6x - 3
After isolating (y) in equation b they end up being the same.
Graphing:
In order to graph this, you have to make the first point at (0, -3) since this is the Y-intercept of the equation.
In order to graph the other points, you must move 6 units up and 1 unit to the right. Or vise versa If you need a visual I'll gladly link one.
P = (2.5,0)
T=(-1.5,-1)
Point R is located (1.5 -2.5)
