Ok so pete lays 10 more than jim per hour

pete and jim laid same amount of tiles

j=jim's rate
p=pete's rate

6j=5p

but pete lays 10 tile per hour faster so
p=10+j

sub
6j=5(10+j)
6j=50+5j
minus 5j both sides
j=50


jim can lay at 50 tiles per hour

How can you find all of <br> the dimensions of a rectangle prism with the given volume
katen-ka-za [31]

You can't.  Knowing the volume doesn't tell you the dimensions. 
There are an infinite number of different rectangular prisms, all
with different dimensions, that all have the same volume.

Here's an example.  Let's say I have a rectangular prism and its
volume is 64.

The dimensions could be . . .

1 x 1 x 64
1 x 2 x 32
1 x 4 x 16
1 x 8 x 8
2 x 2 x 16
2 x 4 x 8
4 x 4 x 4 .

If I only tell you the volume, there is no way to figure out the dimensions.

Form a union for the following sets. K = {2, 3, 5, 8} L = {3, 5, 7}
Kisachek [45]
A union for sets means you combine the two sets together. The symbol of a union is ∪, so we can represent this question with K <span>∪ L.

You simply must combine the two sets together without repeating any of the same numbers.

K </span><span>∪ L = {2, 3, 5, 7, 8}.</span>
