A=1/10, b=1/12, c=1/15 (these are the rates for each worker...)
1.)
2(1/10)+4(1/12)+t/15=1
1/5+1/3+t/15=1
(3+5+t)/15=1
3+5+t=15
8+t=15
t=7
So it would take c 7 hours to finish the job.
2.)
1/40-1/60
(3-2)/120
1/120
The drain rate is 1/60. So you will need to find t when the tank is empty, while starting at 2/3 capacity...
2/3-t/60=0
(40-t)/60=0
40-t=0
t=40
It would take 40 minutes to empty the tank when it is 2/3 full.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 4c + 9 + 7c - 5 + 5c + 2 + 5c - 3
= 4c +7c + 5c +5c + 9 - 5 + 2 - 3
= 21c + 3
System: x + y = 44; x = 2y + 2
Solve with substitution: x = 30; y = 14
x + y = 44
x = 2y + 2
Substitute 2y + 2 for x
2y + 2 + y = 44
3y + 2 = 44
Subtract 2 on both sides.
3y = 42
y = 14
Now substitute back in.
x + 14 = 44
Subtract 14 on both sides.
x = 30
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So we would have to multiply the "2x - 8" by 5 each resulting in 10x - 40 + 15. Then we subtract which results in 10x - 25 = - 15. We add 25 to 25 and 15 resulting in 10x = 10. We divide each by 10 which results in x = 1.
Answer:
dividing denominators
Step-by-step explanation:
you say for example 12/5, means 12 divides 5 is going to give something 2.4, so as the answer is gonna be 2 hole number 4/5.
