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 graph below shows the distance, y, that a car traveled in x hours:
Vika [28.1K]
This is a linear relationship as the rate of change is constant, ie constant velocity.  And the slope represents the velocity, and slope is:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(50-25)/(2-1)=25/1

m=25

So the rate of change is 25 mph

Over what interval is the function of the graph
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

1 ≤ x ≤ 6                             Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

When graph is constant it means, value of graph ( y-values)  not to be change different values of x in given interval.

In other words, graph must be parallel to the x axis is known as the constant graph.

A function is a measure of the rate of change of function values with respect to change in input values.

In given graph horizontal line is lie on the interval from x ≥ 1 to x ≤ 6.

So, option A is correct.
