Answer:

If both computers are working together, it will take 24 minutes to do the job

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

There are two computers.The slower computer can send all the company's email in 60 minutes.

The faster computer can complete the same job in 40 minutes

<u>To find the LCM of 40 and 60</u>

LCM (40, 60) = 120

<u>To find efficiency of 2 computers</u>

Let x be the efficiency of faster computer and y be the efficiency of faster computer

x = 120/40 = 3

y = 120/60 = 2

then, x + y = 3 + 2 = 5

Therefore efficiency of both the computer work together = x + y =5

<u>To find the time taken to work both the computer together</u>

time = 120/5 = 24 minutes

the number of defectives in 10 different samples of 50 observations each is the following: 5, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 1, 4, 2, 3. what is
Law Incorporation [45]

The estimate of the population proportion of defectives is 0.05.

Given that,

There are 10 different samples of 50 observations, that is, total of 500 observations.

To find : The estimate of the population proportion of defectives

And total number of defectives from 500 observations is (5+1+1+2+3+3+1+4+2+3) = 25

Thus, the point estimate for the population proportion defectives will be,

=25/500=0.05

or just obtain the individual proportion of each sample and then take their average to obtain the same result.

Thus, the point estimate for the population proportion defectives will be 0.05

James deposited $575 into a bank account that earned 5.5% simple interest each year. If no money was deposited into or withdrawn
Basile [38]
The answer is $654.06.
5.5% of $575 is $31.63.  575 x 0.055 = 31.63
This means that in one year he earns $31.63. In two years it will be $63.25 (31.63 x 2 = 63.25)
Then in half a year it will be $15.81 (31.63/2 = 15.81)
Finally add 15.81 and 63.25 to get $79.06 which you then add to the initial $575 to get the total amount earned in 2 1/2 years which is $654.06.

Angle JKL is an equilateral triangle jk=13x+5 KL=17x-19 and JL=8x+35
Goshia [24]

The value of x is 6, then the value of JK is 83, KL is 83 and JL is 83.

<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>

A triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three vertices. It is one of the basic figures in geometry.

An equilateral triangle is a shape with three sides that have an equal measure of side length.

The 3 sides of triangle JKL are equal to each other, therefore we can equate any of the two sides together to find the unknown variable called x.

So, JK = KL

JK = 13x + 5

KL + 17x - 19

13x + 5 = 17x - 19

Collect like terms;

17x - 13x = 19 + 5

4x = 24

x = 24/4

x = 6

We can now proceed to find the sides;

JK = 13x + 5

13 x 6 + 5

= 78 + 5

= 83

JK = 83

KL = 17x - 19

= 17 x 6 - 19

= 102 - 19

= 83

KL = 83

JL= 8x + 35​

= 8 x 6 + 35

= 48 + 35

= 83

JL = 83

Hence, The value of x is 6, then the value of JK is 83, KL is 83 and JL is 83.
