<span>Faster maid DATA:
time = x hr/job ; rate = 1/x job/jhr
Slower maid DATA:
time = 3x hr/job ; rate = 1/3x job/hr
Together DATA:
time = 3 hr/job ; rate = 1/3 job/hr
Equation:
rate + rate = together rate
1/x + 1/3x = 1/3
Multiply thru by 3x to get:
3 + 1 = x
x = 4 hrs (time for the faster maid to do the job)</span>
Answer:
a cubic polynomial has 3 solutions
Answer:
The answer is -3.1, or 3 1/10.Since diving a negative and a positive equals a negative, your quotient will be negative. You can start by removing the 0.5, and divide 15 by 5 which is 3. Then with the 0.5 from -15.5, divide it by 5 and you get 0.1. 3 plus 0.1 is 3.1, and since it has to be negative, it's -3.1.
