1 hour = 1/56 miles
1/56 miles = 1 hour 
[7/8 = 49/56]
49/56  miles = 1 x 49 hours
49/56  miles = 49 hours
7/8 miles = 49 hours

Answer:  49 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A road crew can repave \dfrac{1}{56} miles of road each hour.

i.e. the rate of of repave = \dfrac{1}{56} miles per hour.

Distance required to cover = \dfrac{7}{8} miles.

The formula used here is :-

\text{Time}=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{rate of repave}}

i.e. \text{Time}=\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{8}}{\dfrac{1}{56}}

i.e. \text{Time}=\dfrac{7}{8}\times56=7\times7=49

Hence, it will take 49 hours to repave the road.

Suppose H,K C G are subgroups of orders 5 and 8, respectively. Prove that H K = {e}.
kow [346]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

We have given that H and k are the subgroups of orders 5 and 8, respectively.

We need to prove that H∩K = {e}.

As we know "Order of element divides order of group"

Here, the order of each element of H must divide 5 and every group has 1 identity element of order 1.

1 and 5 are the possible order of 5 order subgroup.

For subgroup order 8: The possible orders are 1, 2, 4 and 8.

Now we want to find the intersection of these two subgroups.

Clearly both subgroup H and k has only identity element in common.

Thus, H∩K = {e}.

How many solutions does the pair of equations y = 0 and y = -5 have?
Crank

Answer: None

Step-by-step explanation:

y=0 and y=-5 don't have any solutions. When you ask if a pair of equations have a solution, that means there is an intersection of the equations. The 2 equations will meet somewhere, and that is the solution. To find the solution, you set the equations equal to each other.

0≠-5

It is obvious that 0 and -5 are not equal to each other. Therefore, there is no solution. Also, y=0 and y=-5 are horizontal lines that are parallel to each other. They will never meet, which means there will be no intersection. No intersection means no solutions.
