Peggy is 9, Peter is 4, and Susan is 2
9+4+2=15
Wilda can do the job in 4 hours ... she does 1/4 (or 0.25) of it each hour.
Karla can do it in 5 hours ... she does 1/5 (or 0.2) of it each hour.
Wilda worked alone for 1 hour ... 0.25 of the job was done before her helper
arrived. So only 0.75 of the job remained to be done together.
Working together, they accomplish (0.25 + 0.2) = 0.45 of the job in 1 hour.
How many times do they need to do 0.45 of the job in order to finish
the 0.75 of it that remains ? That's the number of hours it will take them,
working together.
0.75 / 0.45 = <em>1 and 2/3</em>
After Wilda worked alone for 1 hour and Karla came along to join her, it will
take them another <em>1 hour and 40 minutes</em> to finish the job and go for a swim.
Answer:
y = -
x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mc + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Here m = -
and crosses the y- axis at (0, 10 ) ⇒ c = 10
y = -
x + 10 ← equation of line
