Answer:
12/5hours=2.4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Sam:6hours
Tom:4hours
This is a rate problem
Sam's rate is one job completed in 6 hours which is 1/6
Tom's rate is one job completed in 4 hours which is 1/4
Together, they could complete 1/4+1/6 of the job in y hours
We are trying to find the rate at which Sam and Tom could complete the job together, or one job in x days, for a rate of 1/y
1/4+1/6=1/y
The least common denominator is 12y
Multiplying through by the LCD which gives:
12y(1/4)+ 12y (1/6)= 12y (1/y)
3y + 2y=12
5y = 12
y=12/5 hours=2.4hours
Therefore it will take 12/5 hours or 2.4 hours to complete the job if they work together
Answer:
28 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
62 = angle BAC since they are vertical angles
angle ABC is a right angle since KL is perpendicular to FG
Adding the angles in triangle ABC
BAC + ABC + BCA = 180
62 + 90 + BCA = 180
152 + BCA = 180
BCA = 180-152
BCA = 28
BCA = x since they are vertical angles
28 = x
The answer to this question is D. 14
0
You compare the degrees of the numerator and the denominator.
The numerator has a degree of 0 and the denominator has a degree of 1.
Since the numerator < denominator the degree is 0.
