Answer:

Together they build a cart in 10 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mike can build a go cart in 30 days, Jed can build one in 20 days and Erick in 60 days. If all of them share the work.

To find : How quickly can they build a go cart?

Solution :

Let the work done be in x days.

and total work done is 1.

Then, Mike can build a go cart in 30 days

i.e. Mike done his work in \frac{x}{30}

Jed can build one in 20 days

i.e. Jed done his work in \frac{x}{20}

Erick can build one in 60 days

i.e. Erick done his work in \frac{x}{60}

If they work together work done is 1.

i.e.  \frac{x}{30}+\frac{x}{20}+\frac{x}{60}=1

Taking LCM,

\frac{2x+3x+x}{60}=1

Cross multiply,

6x=60

x=\frac{60}{6}

x=10

Therefore, Together they build a cart in 10 days.

Answer: 10 days

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Mike: \frac{x}{30}

Jed: \frac{x}{20}

Erick: \frac{x}{60}

Together: \frac{x}{30} + \frac{x}{20} + \frac{x}{60} = 1

60(\frac{x}{30} + \frac{x}{20} + \frac{x}{60} = 1)

2x + 3x + x = 60

             6x = 60

               x = 10

The weekly sales in thousands of items of a product has a seasonal sales record approximated by n=60.31+19.4sin(/24) (pi x t /24
Paladinen [302]
We are given with the equation
n = 60.31 + 19.4 sin (πt/24)
where n is the weekly sales in thousands of item
and t is the time in weeks

The week that will result to a sales of 70,010 is
70.01 = 60.31 + 19.4 sin (πt/24)
t = 4

Which of the following is equivalent to 5√13^3?
sergeinik [125]
LOL...it took me a few seconds to realize what you were attempting to express...which is the fifth root of 13 cubed...

(13^3)^(1/5)  rule:  (a^b)^c=a^(b*c)

13^(3*1/5)

13^(3/5)

Suppose a bag contains 4 white chips and 6 black chips what is the probability of randomly choosing a white chip not replacing i
ipn [44]
Number of white chips = 4
Number of black chips = 6
Total number of chips = 4 + 6 = 10
Choosing the first white chip:
p(white chip) = 4/10 = 2/5

Now the numbers are:
Number of white chips = 3
Number of black chips = 6
Total number of chips = 3 + 6 =
Choosing the second white chip:
p(white chip) = 3/9 = 1/3

p(white chip followed by white chip) = 2/5 * 1/3 = 2/15

Find x if m ∠ GHI = 173°, m ∠ GHQ = 29 + x, and m ∠ QHI = x + 162.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

<h3>-9</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following angles;

m ∠ GHI = 173°

m ∠ GHQ = 29 + x

m ∠ QHI = x + 162

The following expression is true for the three angles;

m ∠ GHI = m ∠ GHQ+ m ∠ QHI

substitute the given values into the formula and calculate x

173 = 29+x+x+162

173 = 29+162+2x

173 = 191+2x

2x = 173 - 191

2x = -18

x = -18/2

x = -9

Hence the value of x is -9
