S a punishment for something naughty that we did, my little brother and I have to whitewash both sides of a fence. We start at t

he same time, and we each work at a constant rate.
If we each whitewash one side, I'll finish in 2 hours and my brother will finish in 3 hours. But I'm a nice kid, so after I finish my side, I go around to the other side and help my brother finish his side. From the time I start helping him, how many minutes does it take us to finish the job?

Hint(s):

How many sides per hour can I paint? How about my brother? How about both of us together?

AnnZ [28]
Total surface area of first box = 2(8 * 6.25) + 2(8 * 10.5) + 2(6.25 * 10.5) = 2(50) + 2(84) + 2(65.625) = 100 + 168 + 131.25 = 399.25 sq. ins

Total surface area of second box = 2(9 * 5.5) + 2(9 * 11.75) + 2(5.5 * 11.75) = 2(49.5) + 2(105.75) + 2(64.625) = 99 + 211.5 + 129.25 = 439.75 sq. ins

Hence, the second box requires more material to make.

I need help pleaseeee!!

a) Since ∠FGI is bisected, that means <em>∠FGH and ∠HGI are congruent</em>.

Therefore, <em>5x - 3 = 6x - 8</em>

x to one side: 6x - 5x = -3 + 8

Subtract: x = 5

Plug in: m∠FGH = 5(5) - 3

Simplify: 25 - 3 = 22

m∠FGH = 22°

b) Since ∠FGH is congruent to ∠HGI, m∠FGH = m∠HGI.

Through substitution, m∠HGI = 22°

c) ∠FGI is ∠FGH and ∠HGI combined, so m∠FGI = m∠FGH + m∠HGI

Substitute: m∠FGI = 22° + 22°

Add: m∠FGI = 44°
