Okay, so the rate is 1 job / hours, so:
1/3 + 1/7 (This covers both their work rates) = 1/n (n represents the time it take for them to work together)
Get the LCD:
7/21+ 3/21 = 1/n
10/21 = 1/n
Cross multiply:
10n = 21
n = 2.1 
It will take them 2.1 hours, or 2 hours and 6 minutes

Andru [333]
From 6,1 to 7,4 
We can determine the slope of the line
rise/run
3/1=3

Now we know the slope of the line, a line parallel to it must obtain the same slope, therefore, I tried to see if the increase in y is three times the increase in x
I found the true pair to be A

(-4,1) and (-2,7)

greg invested $20 and qudrupled his money in five years.sabrena also invested $20 and after five years the amount was eqaul to 2
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The money of Greg after five years is $80

The money of Sabrena after five years is $160,000

So,The money of Sabrena is more than Greg after five years .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Greg invested $20 and quadrupled his money in five years

Let the quadrupled money after five years = $x

∵ quadrupled means the money becomes 4 times of previous

So, x = $20 × 4

i.e x = $80

So, The money of Greg after five years is $80

Again

Sabrena invested $20 and after five years money becomes 20 to the fourth power

Let the money after 20 to the fourth power = $y

So, y = 20^{4}

i.e y = 160,000

So, The money of Sabrena after five years is $160,000

∵ Sabrena money is more than Greg money

Hence, The money of Sabrena is more after five years . Answer
