1 dozen = 12
Divide 941 by 12:
941 / 12 = 78.42
So the greatest number of dozens he can make is 78.
1) He worked 4 hours leaving 6 more hours for him.
rate for A alone 6 baker
rate for A & B together 4
1/a+1/b=1/x
1/6+1/b=1/4
1/b=1/4-1/6
1/b=6/24-4/24
1/b=2/24
1/b=1/12
b=12
rate for wife alone 12 hours for the remaining 6 hours
check
1/6+1/12=1/4
12/72+6/72=1/4
18/72=1/4
ok

But we want to know how long it would have taken her for the whole job not just part of it
he works twice as fast as she does so the job that takes him 10 hours alone would take her 20 hours alone.
2) jessica and cynthia work in a pet shop.
it takes jessica 6 hours to groom all the pets but cynthia needs 8 hours to groom them.
if jessica starts to groom 1 hour before cynthia joins, how long will it take them to finish?
:
let t = time it takes them to finish (C's working time)
then
t+1 = J's working time
let 1 = completed job (all pets groomed)
:
A shared work equation, each does a fraction of the job, the two fractions add up to 1
%28%28t%2B1%29%29%2F6 + t%2F8 = 1
Multiply by the least common multiple of 6 and 8, 24. cancel the denominators
4(t+1) + 3t = 24
4t + 4 + 3t = 24
4t + 3t = 24 - 4
7t = 20
t = 20/7
t = 26%2F7 hrs, which is: 2 + 6%2F7*60 = 2 hrs 51.43 min to finish the job
3) math club takes 40 minutes
science takes 50 minutes.
rate * time = quantity
quantity = 1 set up of the tables.
rate for math club is 1/40 of all the tables in 1 minute.
rate for science club is 1/50 of all the tables in 1 minute.
math club works for 10 minutes.
rate * time = quantity
1/40 * 10 = 10/40 = 1/4 of the tables are already set up by the math club.
there are 3/4 of the tables that still need to be set up.
rate * time = quantity
the rates of the math club and the science club are additive.
(1/40 + 1/50) * time = 3/4 of the tables that still need to be set up.
common denominator is 200.
(5/200 + 4/200) * time = 3/4.
9/200 * time = 3/4
time = 3/4 * 200/9 = 600 / 36 = 16 and 2/3 minutes.
total time required is 10 + 16 + 2/3 minutes = 26 + 2/3 minutes.
how to check.
10 minutes is used to do 1/4 of the tables.
16 + 2/3 minutes is used to do the remaining 3/4 of the tables.
combined rate of math and science club is 9/200 of the tables in 1 minute.
math club rate of 1/40 * 10 = 10/40 = 1/4 of the tables.
combine rate of 9/200 * (16 + 2/3) = 9/200 * 50/3 = 450/600 = 9/12 = 3/4 of the tables.
1/4 + 3/4 = 1 = all of the tables.
First of all, we know that Dianna has total 6+5+4=15 coins including: 6 quarters, 5 dimes and 4 nickles in her purse.
P(grabbing the first dimes):
5/15 or 1/3
P(grabbing the second dimes):
5/15 or 1/3
P(grabbing 2 dimes in a row):
1/3*1/3=1/9. As a result,the probability that Diana grabs 2 dimes is 1/9. Hope it help!
X= 70 degrees
Y= 70 degrees
Understand that every triangle has three angles and they add up to 180 degrees.
If I split this triangle in half the total degrees of each individual piece will be 90 degrees. A split in the isosceles triangle will also cause the 40 degrees to halved (thus, how I got 20 degrees in our 90 triangle).
Since we are dealing with an isosceles triangles two of the sides will be equal (hence, the dashes on the triangles sides). Therefore, x and y will also be equal.
Now if our 40 degreed angle is now 20 degrees, we have an unknown angle and the triangle in total now adds up to 90 degrees we can set up an equation.
20 + y = 90
Y = 70
Since X and Y are equal, X will also be 70.
If we return to to the isosceles triangle before it was split (use your photo for reference) and we add 40 +70 + 70 we will get 180 degrees. Which is the standard total of degrees for any triangle that is not a 90 degreed triangle.
I hope this helps. Feel free to ask questions.
Below I uploaded my work.
Solve for "y" and you get y=3x/2-2 and the equation for a line is y= mx+b, I mean the slope is the number which companion the "x" in the line equation, so the slope in your problem is 3/2
