Answer: Annette will take 6 hours to do the entire job alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Time taken by Kelly to do \dfrac{1}{5} of job = 2 hours

i.e. Time for complete job done alone by Kelly =5\times2=10\ hours

Rest of work = 1-\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{4}{5} of the job

\dfrac{4}{5}  of the complete job done by both Kelly and Annette in 3 hours

Time would be taken by then to do entire job together = 3\times\dfrac{5}{4}=3.75\ hours

Let t be the time taken by Annette to do job alone.

Then, as per situation

\dfrac{1}{3.75}=\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{1}{t}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{3.75}-\dfrac{1}{10}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{4}{15}-\dfrac{1}{10}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t=6

hence, Annette will take 6 hours to do the entire job alone.

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

8 - 8 = 0 , 8 * 5 / 4 = 10 , 8 * 4 - 8 = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

8 - 8 = 0

8 * 5 = 40 / 4 = 10

8 * 4 = 32 - 8 = 24

<u>Question 4</u>

1) \overline{BD} bisects \angle ABC, \overline{EF} \perp \overline{AB}, and \overline{EG} \perp \overline{BC} (given)

2) \angle FBE \cong \angle GBE (an angle bisector splits an angle into two congruent parts)

3) \angle BFE and \angle BGE are right angles (perpendicular lines form right angles)

4) \triangle BFE and \triangle BGE are right triangles (a triangle with a right angle is a right triangle)

5) \overline{BE} \cong \overline{BE} (reflexive property)

6) \triangle BFE \cong \triangle BGE (HA)

<u>Question 5</u>

1) \angle AXO and \angle BYO are right angles, \angle A \cong \angle B, O is the midpoint of \overline{AB} (given)

2) \triangle AXO and \triangle BYO are right triangles (a triangle with a right angle is a right triangle)

3) \overline{AO} \cong \overline{OB} (a midpoint splits a segment into two congruent parts)

4) \triangle AXO \cong \triangle BYO (HA)

5) \overline{OX} \cong  \overline{OY} (CPCTC)

<u>Question 6</u>

1) \angle B and \angle D are right angles, \overline{AC} bisects \angle BAD (given)

2) \overline{AC} \cong \overline{AC} (reflexive property)

3) \angle BAC \cong \angle CAD (an angle bisector splits an angle into two congruent parts)

4) \triangle BAC and \triangle CAD are right triangles (a triangle with a right angle is a right triangle)

5) \triangle BAC \cong \triangle DCA (HA)

6) \angle BCA \cong \angle DCA (CPCTC)

7) \overline{CA} bisects \angle ACD (if a segment splits an angle into two congruent parts, it is an angle bisector)

<u>Question 7</u>

1) \angle B and \angle C are right angles, \angle 4 \cong \angle 1 (given)

2) \triangle BAD and \triangle CAD are right triangles (definition of a right triangle)

3) \angle 1 \cong \angle 3 (vertical angles are congruent)

4) \angle 4 \cong \angle 3 (transitive property of congruence)

5) \overline{AD} \cong \overline{AD} (reflexive property)

6) \therefore \triangle BAD \cong \triangle CAD (HA theorem)

7) \angle BDA \cong \angle CDA (CPCTC)

8) \therefore \vec{DA} bisects \angle BDC (definition of bisector of an angle)
