Answer:

\frac{5}{6} minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find unit rate of each.

<u>Jada</u>

2 scoop in 5 minutes

So,

1 scoop in 5/2 = 2.5 minutes

<u>Noah</u>

3 scoop in 5 minutes

So,

1 scoop in 5/3 = 1.25 minutes

These are the times. Time and rate are inverses of each other. So the rates of each is:

Jada = 1/2.5 = 0.4

Noah = 1/1.25 = 0.8

Working together, we add the rates and find the time:

(0.4+0.8)*t = 1

1.2t = 1

t = 1/1.2 = \frac{5}{6} minutes

So, they take \frac{5}{6} minutes to eat one scoop, working together

What is the surface area of the figure shown? Plz answer asap
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

264\ cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the figure is equal to the lateral face of the triangular pyramid plus the lateral face of the rectangular prism plus the area of the base of the rectangular prism

step 1

Find the lateral face of the triangular prism

The lateral area is equal to the area of its four lateral triangular faces

LA=4(\frac{1}{2}(6)(7))=84\ cm^{2}

step 2

Find the lateral area of the rectangular prism

The lateral area is equal to the perimeter of the base multiplied by the height

LA=(4)(6)(6)=144\ cm^{2}

step 3

Find the area of the base of the rectangular prism

B=(6)(6)=36\ cm^{2}

step 4

Find the surface area

84\ cm^{2}+144\ cm^{2}+36\ cm^{2}=264\ cm^{2}

It’s late work and I’ve forgotten how to do it
Veseljchak [2.6K]
You want to eliminate one of the terms (x or y) in one of the equations so you can solve for the other variable.  You have to multiply by the opposite number of the coefficient to be able to eliminate the term in the other equation.  If the x coefficient is 2, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by -2.  If the y coefficient is -5, then you have to multiply the entire other equation by 5.


10)
-4x + 9y= 9
x - 3y= -6

STEP 1:
multiply the bottom equation by 4
4(x- 3y)= 4(-6)
4x - 12y= -24

STEP 2:
add the top equation and the equation from step 2

-4x + 9y= 9
4x - 12y= -24
the x term cancels out

-3y= 15
divide both sides by -3

y= -5

STEP 2:
substitute the y value in either original equation to solve for x

x - 3y= -6
x - 3(-5)= -6

x + 15= -6
subtract 15 from both sides

x= -21

ANSWER: x= -21; y= -5

12)
-7x + y= -19
-2x + 3y= -19

STEP 1:
multiply the top equation by -3 to eliminate the y term and to solve for x

-3(-7x + y)= -3(-19)
21x - 3y= 57

STEP 2:
add the bottom equation and the equation from step 2 to solve for x

-2x + 3y= -19
21x - 3y= 57
the y term cancels out

19x= 38
divide both sides by 19

x= 2

STEP 3:
substitute the x value in step 2 to solve for y; you can use either original equation

-7x + y= -19
-7(2) + y= -19

-14 + y= -19
add 14 to both sides

y= -5

ANSWER: x= 2; y=-5

Hope this helps!  :)

Reduce to simplest form.<br> -7/12 + 3/8<br> (They are fractions)
denpristay [2]

Answer:

-5/24

Step-by-step explanation:

You first change -7/12 to -14/24, and 3/8 to 9/24 so they have the same denominator. You then do -14/24 + 9/24. That will be the same as the opposite of the answer to 14/24 - 9/24.

14/24 - 9/24 = 5/24

-5/24

[Algebra 2] Find the quotient with the necessary restrictions.​
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is:   3x² (4x - 1) / (x - 4) (x - 3) ∧ restriction x ≠ 3, x ≠ 4, x ≠ 0 and x ≠ 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

((16x² - 8x + 1) / (x² - 7x + 12)) : ((20x² - 5x) / 15x³) =

dividing with one fraction is the same as multiplying with its reciprocal value

((16x² - 8x + 1) / (x² - 7x + 12)) · (15x³ / (20x² - 5x))

First we need to factorize both numerators and denominators

16x² - 8x + 1 = (4x - 1)²   This is square binomial

x² - 7x + 12 = x² - 4x - 3x + 12 = x (x - 4) - 3 (x - 4) = (x - 4) ( x - 3)

20x² - 5x = 5x (4x - 1)

(4x - 1)² / (x - 4) (x - 3) ·  15x³ / 5x (4x - 1)

The existence of this rational algebraic expression is possible only if it is:

x - 4 ≠ 0 and x - 3 ≠ 0 and x ≠ 0 and 4x - 1 ≠ 0  =>

x ≠ 4 and x ≠ 3 and x ≠ 0 and x ≠ 1/4  This is restriction

Finally we have:

3 x² (4x - 1) / (x - 4) (x - 3)

God with you!!!
