Answer:

Steve can mow the lawn in 240 minutes

Explanation:

It is given Hillary works three times as fast as Steve

When both work together the work is completed in 60 minutes

Let Steve can do 1 work in 1 minute

So Hillary can do 3 work in 1 minute

So work done by both in 1 minute = 1+3 = 4

As they can complete the work in 60 minutes

So total work = 4×60 = 240 work

As Steve can do 1 work in a minute

So time taken by Steve to complete the work =\frac{240}{1}=240minutes

Answer:

Steve will take 240 minutes or 4 hours.

Explanation:

Steve and Hillary can mow a lawn in 60 minutes by working together. However, Hillary works three times faster than Steve.

Let's assume Steve takes takes x minutes to mow alone.

This implies that Hillary can mow alone in x/3 minutes.

In a minute, Steve can mow 1/x of the lawn, so this means Hillary can mow 3/x of the lawn.

In a minute together then can mow,

= \frac{1}{x} + \frac{3}{x}

= \frac{4}{x}

In 60 minutes they can mow

= \frac{4}{x} \times 60

= \frac{240}{x}

This means that it takes 4 hours for Steve to mow the lawn alone.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

$117,600

Explanation:

Given that the company  has Cash sales that are normally 60% of total sales and Of the credit sales, 25% are collected in the same month as the sale, 60% are collected during the first month after the sale, and the remaining 15% are collected in the second month after the sale

In June, total sales $370,000

Amount that would not have been collected from this sale at the end of July

= 40% * 15% * $370,000

= $22,200

In July, total sales is $318,000,

Amount that would not have been collected from this sale at the end of July

= 40% *75% *  $318,000

= $95,400

Hence the amount of accounts receivable reported on the company’s budgeted balance sheet as of July 31

= $22,200 + $95,400

= $117,600

Which of the following is an explanation of the capture theory​? A. When products have too many warning labels comma consumers m
seropon [69]

Answer: B. People who have been in an industry are most likely to be asked to be regulators of the industry.

Explanation:

The Capture Theory or Regulatory Capture refers to a situation where the agencies that are supposed to be regulating an industry come under the influence of the companies they are meant to be regulating.

This leads to a situation where the Agencies make regulations that favour these companies instead of the consumer.

One key way this occurs is the REVOLVING DOOR. This is known as the tendency of professionals to move between Government and Private jobs. Simply put, a professional could work in an industry and then go on to work in an Agency regulating that industry. Once this happens, the once private citizens could start influencing the Agencies in favour of their previous bosses.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

With the line from Shakespeare’s Macbeth, “Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, creeps in its pretty pace,” I could create a very strong password. The Microsoft Company has very strict criteria forcreating strong passwords. They include:

• Having between ten and twelve characters

• Not containing one’s username, real name, or the company name

• Not be a word found in any language's dictionary

• Be different from previous passwords

• Have upper case and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters.

Using the first letter of each word along with the punctuation, I would have all the criteria incorporated except for the last one.

In order to include numbers I could use "+1" in second and last"tomorrow" words. My password would look like this:

T+1+1,ciipp.
