Answer:
(x+y)/xy or (1/x + 1/y) portion of the leaves
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total work done to rake the leaves be a for representation.
Thus,
given Maya takes x minutes to rake the leaves
thus,
work done by may in x minutes = a
dividing both side by x
work done by maya in x/x = 1 minutes = a/x
similarly
given Calra takes y minutes to rake the leaves
thus,
work done by may in y minutes = a
dividing both side by y
work done by maya in y/y = 1 minutes = a/y
__________________________________
Total work done by both in 1 minutes = a/x + a/y = a(1/x+1/y) = a(x+y)/xy
Thus, if a is the total work , then they do (x+y)/xy of a work in one minute.
Thus, (x+y)/xy portion of leaves do they rake in one minute if they work together.
Answer:
y = -1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
y/5 +3/10 = (y+2)/7
The LCD is 10·7 = 70. Multiplying the equation by 70 gives ...
14y +21 = 10(y +2)
14y +21 = 10y +20 . . . . eliminate parentheses
4y + 21 = 20 . . . . subtract 10y
4y = -1 . . . . . . . . . subtract 21
y = -1/4 . . . . . . . . .divide by 4
_____
<em>Check</em>
(-1/4)/5 +3/10 = (-1/4 +2)/7 . . . . . substitute for y
-1/20 +6/20 = (7/4)/7 . . . simplify a bit, rewrite 3/10
5/20 = 1/4 . . . . . . . . . . true
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral (has 4 sides and 4 angle) with two pair of parallel and opposite sides. Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal.
Given parallelogram ABCD:
AB = CD = 18 cm; BC = AD = 8 cm
∠P = ∠P, ∠PDA = ∠PCQ (corresponding angles are equal).
Hence ΔPCQ and ΔPDA are similar by angle-angle similarity theorem. For similar triangles, the ratio of their corresponding sides equal. Therefore:
Perimeter of CPQ = CP + CQ + PQ
15 = 6 + 8/3 + PQ
PQ = 15 - (6 + 8/3)
PQ = 6.33
∠CQP = ∠AQB (vertical angles), ∠QCP = ∠QBA (alternate angles are equal).
Hence ΔCPQ and ΔABQ are similar by angle-angle similarity theorem
Perimeter of BAQ = AB + BQ + AQ = 18 + 8 + 19 = 45cm
PA = AQ + PQ = 19 + 6.33 = 25.33
PD = CD + DP = 18 + 6 = 24
Perimeter of PDA = PA + PD + AD = 24 + 25.33 + 8 = 57.33 cm
ANSWER If you solve for x you get -4/3 y+5/6 If you solve for y you get -3/4x +5/8.
Step-by-step explanation
and then the second answer is
If you solve for x you get-4/3y +-1/2
If you solve for y you get -3/4x +-1/2
