Answer:
v is 120
Step-by-step explanation:
if the perimeter is 480 then you need to divide 480 by 4 which gives you 120.
p=4(a)
If it takes one person 4 hours to paint a room and another person 12 hours to
paint the same room, working together they could paint the room even quicker, it
turns out they would paint the room in 3 hours together. This can be reasoned by
the following logic, if the first person paints the room in 4 hours, she paints 14 of
the room each hour. If the second person takes 12 hours to paint the room, he
paints 1 of the room each hour. So together, each hour they paint 1 + 1 of the 12 4 12
room. Using a common denominator of 12 gives: 3 + 1 = 4 = 1. This means 12 12 12 3
each hour, working together they complete 13 of the room. If 13 is completed each hour, it follows that it will take 3 hours to complete the entire room.
This pattern is used to solve teamwork problems. If the first person does a job in A, a second person does a job in B, and together they can do a job in T (total). We can use the team work equation.
Teamwork Equation: A1 + B1 = T1
Often these problems will involve fractions. Rather than thinking of the first frac-
tion as A1 , it may be better to think of it as the reciprocal of A’s time.
World View Note: When the Egyptians, who were the first to work with frac- tions, wrote fractions, they were all unit fractions (numerator of one). They only used these type of fractions for about 2000 years! Some believe that this cumber- some style of using fractions was used for so long out of tradition, others believe the Egyptians had a way of thinking about and working with fractions that has been completely lost in history.

Step-by-step explanation:
not sure what class this is for but I\ll try. Each traveller has a 21 km drive so their fare should be equal.
method 1) each traveller can pay for 21 km worth when they get out
method 2) Curly can pay the full fare and Andy and Bob can pay him back later (they're brothers so this should be easy to manage)
Answer:
<em>x = 0.05</em>
<em>x = 1.57</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is:
Moving all terms to the left side:
Now we define a function:
The solutions of the equation are the values of x such that y=0.
Since the function cannot be solved by algebraic methods, we use a graphing tool.
Those points where the graph crosses the x-axis are solutions of the equation.
Please refer to the graph in the figure below.
We can clearly identify there are two solutions at
x = 0.05
x = 1.57
ANSWER
Approximately after 15 minutes.
EXPLANATION
The growth rate of the first bacteria is
The growth rate of the first bacteria :
To find the time that, there will be an equal number of bacteria, we equate the two equation;
We solve for t to get,
Or
We discard the negative value.
This implies that,
