Patrice, by himself, can paint four rooms in 10 hours. If he hires April to help, they can do the same job together in 6 hours.

If he lets April work alone, how long will it take her to paint the four rooms?

-- The whole discussion involves 4 rooms, never more and never less,
so we can call the 4 rooms "1 job" for simplicity.

-- Patrice, by himself, does the job in 10 hours.  So he does 1/10 of
the job each hour.

-- Working together, Patrice and April do the job in 6 hours.  So when
they work together, they do 1/6 of the job each hour.

-- April's part of the job is (1/6 - 1/10) = (5/30 - 3/30) = 2/30 = 1/15 job per hour.

-- Her unit rate alone is  1/15 job per hour, or  <em>15 hours</em> per job.

USE THE IMAGE ATTACHED BELOW please help me with my work answer it correctly I HAVE SO MUCH WORK DURING QUARANTINE
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Question 1:

a. The answer is B because the graph inclined really quickly and then it inclined at a much slower pace, suggesting that the person was running and then walking.

b. The answer is C because you can see on the graph that after a while, the distance from the starting point goes back to 0, indicating that the person forgot something at home.

Question 2:

a. The dashed line reaches the bottom at 15:30 so the answer is C.

b. Siobhan travels 8 km to go from home to school so the answer is 2 * 8 = 16 which is option D.

Question 3:

The answer is C because after the distance from the starting point increased, it then decreased and came back to the original point suggesting that he walked, turned around and walked back to the starting point.

If a population of 100 cells triples every hour, which function represents p(t), the population after t hours?
tia_tia [17]
Exponential functions are in the form f(x)=a*b^x, where <em>a</em> is the initial value, <em>b</em> is the growth rate (percent increase) + 1, and <em>x</em> is the number of time periods.  Our initial value is 100, and we're given the growth rate + 1 (tripling is the same as increasing by 200%; 200%=2.0; 2.0+1=3).  Therefore our function is p(t)=100*3^t.

ahrayia [7]

The ratio can be determined as,

\begin{gathered} \text{Ratio}=\frac{14}{10+14} \\ =\frac{14}{24} \\ =\frac{7}{12} \end{gathered}

Thus, the requried ratio is 7:12.
