If Chad can paint the whole room in 5 hours, in 1 hour he gets 1/5 of it painted.  If Cassie can paint the whole room in 3 hours, in 1 hour she gets 1/3 of it painted.  If we add those together we can find out how much of the room they can paint together in one hour.  1/5 + 1/3 = 1/x, with x being the number of hours it will take them to paint the room together.  Common denominator is 15, therefore, 3/15 + 5/15 = 1/x and 8/15 = 1/x.  Cross-multiply to get 8x = 15, so it will take them 15/8 hours, or 1.9 hours to paint the whole room together.

What are some of the reasons for Venus’s high temperatures?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

As sunlight passes through the atmosphere, it heats up the surface of Venus. Most of this heat cannot escape back into space because it is blocked by the very thick atmosphere of Venus. The heat becomes trapped and builds up to extremely high temperatures

3x^2 -5x -2=0
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find two numbers that add to make the coefficient of x (in this case, -5) and that multiply to make the constant term multiplied by the coefficient of x^2 (in this case, -2 x 3 = -6)

Two numbers that work are -6 and +1

-6 x +1 = -6

-6 + -1 = -5

2. Split the middle term into the two numbers that you found.

3x^2 -6x +x -2 = 0

I've put the -6 on the left side because in our next step, when we factorise, it will be easier than having the numbers the other way around.

3. Factorise the left side by taking out common factors from each pair. The pairs I'm talking about here are '3x^2 and -6x', and 'x and -2'

3x (x-2) +1 (x-2) = 0

4. You now have two numbers both being multiplied by the term x-2. We can rearrange this equation to give us two brackets being multiplied by each other.

(3x + 1) (x-2) = 0

5. According to the Null Factor Law, if two terms are multiplied together and the result is 0, then one of those terms must be 0. Make both terms equal to 0 and solve each for x.

3x + 1 = 0              x-2 = 0

3x = -1                   x = 2

x = -1/3

6. The solutions to this equation are x = 2 and x = -1/3
