This is the concept of proportionality, we are required to calculate for the number of hours two crews can use to paint the house altogether.
Here proceed as follows;
number of hours new crew can paint=12 hrs
portion of work painted by new crew in 1 hour= 1/12
number of hours experienced crew can paint=6 hours
Portion of work painted by experienced crew in 1 hour=1/6
Portion of work painted by the two crews altogether in 1 hour will be:
1/6+1/12=1/4
thus the total amount of hours that the two painters will take to paint will be:
4 hours
Answer:
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
−x+y=0 −2x+y=−5
Multiply the first equation by -2
-2(-x+y=0)
2x-2y =0
Add this to the second equation
2x-2y =0
−2x+y=−5
-------------------
0x -y = -5
-y =-5
Multiply by -1
y = 5

Answer:
Length of each leg = 130 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that there is an isosceles triangle which has perimeter 345 cm.
Base length =85 cm.
Since other two sides are equal, let the equal size = x
Perimeter = sum of all 3 sides of a triangle
= 85+x+x = 85+2x
But perimeter = 345 (given)
So equate x term perimeter with actual
85+2x = 345
Subtract 85
2x = 260
Divide by 2
x =130 cm.
Hence answer is 130 cm.
