<u>Answer:</u>

The older repear will harvest in 6 hrs

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given a field can be harvested in 1 hr with 2 reapers

Consider the total field to be 1

Let x be the time of older’s reaper

The field can be harvested in 1.2 hr with newer reaper alone

Older’s time of harvesting = \frac{1}{x} per hour

Newer’s time of harvesting = \frac{1}{1.2}per hour

Total (Older+Newer) = 1 = {\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{1.2}}

 \frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{1.2}=1

 \frac{1.2+x}{1.2 x}=1

1.2 + x = 1.2x

1.2 = 0.2x

x = 6

Therefore, older repear will harvest in 6 hrs

Simplify the expression. (3x/y)^-3
AysviL [449]

Answer:

y^3/(27 x^3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

((3 x)/y)^(-3)

((3 x)/y)^(-3) = (y/(3 x))^3:

(y/(3 x))^3

Multiply each exponent in y/(3 x) by 3:

(y^3)/((3 x)^3)

Multiply each exponent in 3 x by 3:

y^3/(3^3 x^3)

3^3 = 3×3^2:

y^3/(3×3^2 x^3)

3^2 = 9:

y^3/(3×9 x^3)

3×9 = 27:

Answer:  y^3/(27 x^3)
