Answer: 4/3 hours or 1 1/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that two mechanics, Martin and Gordon, are working on your car. Martin can complete the work in 4 hours, while Gordon can complete the work in 2 hours.

Since Martin can complete the work in 4 hours, that means in 1 hour, he will do 1/4 of the work.

Since Gordon can complete the work in 2 hours, that means in 1 hour, he'll do 1/2 of the job.

When they both work together, we will add their fraction of work done in one hour together. This will be:

= 1/4 + 1/2

= 3/4

This means that both of them will do 3/4 of the job in one hour. Then to get the time taken to get the whole job done, we divide 1 by 3/4. This will be:

= 1 ÷ 3/4

= 1 × 4/3

= 4/3 hours

= 1 hour 20 minutes.

Blanche bought a 5-year cd for $7100 with an apr of 2.8%, compounded quarterly, but she wants to take all her money out 9 months
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The money she will end up earning in interest on the cd = $11,352.90

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for getting the accumulated amount(compounded) is;

A =P(1+\frac{r}{n})^n*t

Where

A = Accumulated amount  

P = principle (deposit)

r = interest rate and

n = no of times interest applied per time period.  

The interest is compounded quarterly so in one year it will be 4 times

In 5 years

n = (5×4)-3 = 17  (as she will withdraw 3 month before the completion of five years)

A = 7100(1+\frac{2.8}{100} )^17

  = 7100( 1 + 0.028)^17

  =  7100(1.028)^17  

   = 7100 * 1.599

  = 11,352.90

Therefore the money she will end up earning in interest on the cd = $11,352.90

Suppose y = 2x +10. Find y if x = -2.
liubo4ka [24]

If x = -2, y = 6.


To solve this quesiton, we need to find the value of y if x is equal to -2. We can do this by substiuting the value of x and then solving.


y = 2 (-2) + 10


y = -4 + 10


y = 6

Pls asap... use trigonometry to find the area of a regular 20- gon with each side = 6 in
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Area of polygon[20 sides] = 1,140 inch² (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of sides = 20 sides

Length of each side = 6 inch

Find:

Area of polygon[20 sides]

Computation:

Perimeter of polygon[20sides] = 20 x Length of each side

Perimeter of polygon[20sides] = 20 x 6

Perimeter of polygon[20sides] = 120 inch

Apothem[Shortest distance from center] = S / 2tan[180/n]

Apothem[Shortest distance from center] = 6 / 2tan[180/20]

Apothem[Shortest distance from center] = 6 / 2tan[9]

Apothem[Shortest distance from center] = 18.94

Apothem[Shortest distance from center] = 19 inch (Approx.)

Area of polygon[20 sides] = [Perimeter x Apothem] / 2

Area of polygon[20 sides] = [120 x 19] / 2

Area of polygon[20 sides] = 1,140 inch² (Approx.)
