Answer:

2.4 hours or 2 hours and 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack mows 1/6 of the lawn per hour while Marilyn mows 1/4 of the lawn together. Adding up those rates yields in their combined mowing rate:

R = \frac{1}{6}+ \frac{1}{4}\\R=\frac{10}{24}

The time required for them to mow the entire lawn is:

t = \frac{1}{R}\\t = \frac{1*24}{10}\\ t=2.4\ hours

It would take them both 2.4 hours to mow the lawn together.

S_A_V [24]

answer: 28: 4

21: 3

70: 10

step-by-step explanation:

divide 28 by 4, and of course, do to the bottom what you do to the top. 4 divided by 4 is 1, and 28 divided by 4 is 7.

7: 4.

then, multiply by the number of smoothies.

for 3, it's 21: 3.

Simplify: −√16x^2 , when x<0
Savatey [412]

Answer:

-4|x|

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify :

-\sqrt{16x^2} , when x

In order to simplify the given expression we will take the square root of the term inside the root.

The term in the square root are perfect squares (square of an integer), so, we can write them in square of the numbers.

⇒ -\sqrt{(\pm4x)^2}   [As (\pm4x)^2=16x^2]

On taking square root the square gets removed. So, we have,

⇒ -(\pm4x)

⇒ -4|x|

Since x, so the value would be negative.

So, simplified answer is

-4|x|  (Answer)
