Marcus and Tony work for​ Lombardo's Pipe and Concrete. Mr. Lombardo is preparing an estimate for a customer. He knows that Marc

us lays a slab of concrete in 6 hours. Tony lays the same size slab in 4 hours. If both work on the job and the cost of labor is $ 43.00 per​ hour, decide what the labor estimate should be.

Remark
The equation is job1/ time + job2/time = job3/time 

Discussion
job one is the time it takes one of the workers to complete the job.
job two is the time it  takes the other workers to complete the job
job three is the time it takes to do the job together. 

Givens.
Let Marcus's time = m
Let Tony's time be =t
Let their together time = t1

Equation Substitution and solution.
1/m + 1/t = 1/t1
1/6 + 1/4 = 1/t1  The common denominator on the left is 12.
2/12 + 3/12 = 1 / t1
5/12 = 1/t1          Cross multiply.
5*t1 = 12             Divide by 5
t1 = 12/5
t1 = 2 2/5
t1 = 2.4 hours

Cost
1 hour = 43 dollars for labor.
2.4 hours = x dollars for labor.

1*x = 43 * 2.4
x = 103.2 dollars. <<<<< Answer

Answer:

3.

7.608

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number is any number which can't be written as a fraction this way. For example, pi and the square root of two cannot be expressed as a fraction of two whole numbers, so they are both irrational.

if we make the respective accounts in the first and second problem we will see that they are irrational numbers

the fourth is a periodic number, which falls within the irrational

the only rational is the third

krek1111 [17]
<span>B. It must be the same as when he constructed the arc centered at point A. This problem would be a lot easier if you had actually supplied the diagram with the "arcs shown". But thankfully, with a few assumptions, the solution can be determined. Usually when constructing a perpendicular to a line through a specified point, you first use a compass centered on the point to strike a couple of arcs on the line on both sides of the point, so that you define two points that are equal distance from the desired intersection point for the perpendicular. Then you increase the radius of the compass and using that setting, construct an arc above the line passing through the area that the perpendicular will go. And you repeat that using the same compass settings on the second arc constructed. This will define a point such that you'll create two right triangles that are reflections of each other. With that in mind, let's look closely at your problem to deduce the information that's missing. "... places his compass on point B ..." Since he's not placing the compass on point Q, that would imply that the two points on the line have already been constructed and that point B is one of those 2 points. So let's look at the available choices and see what makes sense. A .It must be wider than when he constructed the arc centered at point A. Not good. Since this implies that the arc centered on point A has been constructed, then it's a safe assumption that points A and B are the two points defined by the initial pair of arcs constructed that intersect the line and are centered around point Q. If that's the case, then the arc centered around point B must match exactly the setting used for the arc centered on point A. So this is the wrong answer. B It must be the same as when he constructed the arc centered at point A. Perfect! Look at the description of creating a perpendicular at the top of this answer. This is the correct answer. C. It must be equal to BQ. Nope. If this were the case, the newly created arc would simply pass through point Q and never intersect the arc centered on point A. So it's wrong. D.It must be equal to AB. Sorta. The setting here would work IF that's also the setting used for the arc centered on A. But that's not guaranteed in the description above and as such, this is wrong.</span>
