Working together, it takes Sam, Jenna, and Francisco two hours to paint one room. When Sam works alone, he can paint one room in
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:  12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Working together, it takes Sam, Jenna, and Francisco two hours to paint one room.

When Sam works alone, he can paint one room in 6 hours. When Jenna works alone, she can paint one room in 4 hours.

Let 't' be the time taken by Francisco to paint one room on his own.

Then , we have

Rate of work of  Sam +Rate of work of Jenna + Rate of work of  Francisco =Rate of work they all do together

\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-(\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{4})

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-(\dfrac{4+6}{24})

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{10}{24}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{5}{12}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{6-5}{12}

i.e.  \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{12}

i.e. t= 12

Hence,  Francisco would take 12 hours to  paint one room on his own.

what are two practical products you could add to find 990 x 37 ; 297 693 2970 6930 69300 6330 29700
VMariaS [17]
First evaluate 990 x 37.
990 x 37 = 36630

Test the given numbers to find the pair that adds up to 36630.
Test 297.
The missing pair will be
36630 - 297 = 36333
Will not work

Test 693.
36630 - 693 = 35937
Will not work

Test 2970.
36630 - 2970 = 33660
Will not work

Test 6930
36630 - 6930 = 29700
This works, because 6930 + 29700 = 36630.

Answer: 6930 and 29700.

A committee consisting of 3 faculty members and 5 students is to be formed. Every committee position has the same duties and vot
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

In 16170 ways the committee can be formed.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 faculty members and 5 students are required to form a committee.

The eligible to serve on the committee are 7 faculty members and 11 students.

If each committee position has the same duties and voting rights.

Then, the number of ways of selecting 3 faculty members out of 7 eligible faculty members is ^7C_{3} = 35.

Again, the number of ways of selecting 5 students out of 11 eligible students is given by ^{11}C_{5} = 462.  

Therefore, in (35 × 462) = 16170 ways the committee can be formed. (Answer)
