Answer:

18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Sophie can peel all potatoes in 45 minutes, in 1 minute she can peel:

  • 1/45 of all the potatoes

Simon can peel all potatoes in 30 minutes, in 1 minute he can peel:

  • 1/30 of all the potatoes

Together, in 1 minute they can peel:

  • 1/45+1/30= 2/90+3/90= 5/90= 1/18 of all the potatoes

To peel all the potatoes they need:

  • 1 ÷ 1/18= 1 × 18= 18 minutes

So it will take them 18 minutes to peel all the potatoes

An analysis of the decay of 10 grams of an unstable element over time was completed and is displayed in the computer output.
Lady bird [3.3K]

The equation of the least-squared regression line is: In(Element) = 2.305 - 0.101(Time).

<h3>What is a regression line?</h3>

A regression line displays the connection between scattered data points in any set. It shows the relation between the dependent y variable and independent x variables when there is a linear pattern.

According to the given problem,

From the table we can see,

ln(Element) is the dependent variable and Time is the independent variable.

The constant = 2.305,

Time = -0.101

Hence, we can conclude, our least squared regression line will be

In (Element) = 2.305 - 0.101 (Time).
