Let's look at work rates per minute.
Together they can paint the wall in x minutes.
Working together, in 1 minute, they do 1/x of the job.
The student who paints the wall in 16 minutes does 1/16 of the job in 1 minute.
The student who paints the wall in 24 minutes does 1/24 of the job in 1 minute.
Together, they do 1/16 + 1/24 of the job in 1 minute, but from above, we see that together, they do 1/x of the job in 1 minute, so 1/16 + 1/24 must equal 1/x. That gives us our equation.
1/16 + 1/24 = 1/x
1/16 * 3/3 + 1/24 * 2/2 = 1/x
3/48 + 2/48 = 1/x
5/48 = 1/x
x = 48/5 = 9.6
Answer: It takes them 9.6 minutes, or about 10 minutes to do the job together.
First you put the equation in point slope form- Y-0= 5x - 4
Then add the zero to the 4.
Final answer: y= 5x -4
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
to convert into radian measure, multiply by π/180
40 x π/10
The 8 full boxes have 80 apples (8x10) and the 6 half boxes have 30 apples (6x5).
So: 80+30=110
Answer:
83.33% change
Check work:
30 x 0.8333 = 24.999
30 + 24.999 = 54.999 or about 55
