Work in the rates  / minute 
wilma:-  in 120 minutes she mows 1 lawn
             so in 1 minute she mows 1/120 lawn

similarly, Rock mows 1/80 lawn in 1 minute

working together  1/120 + 1/80  = 1/x  where x is number of minutes working together

1/20 + 1/80 =  1/48  

so 1/x = 1/48

x = 48

answer is 48 minutes

95. A 20-gallon alcohol-water solution contains 15% pure alcohol. How much alcohol should
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

  1.25 gallons of alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of alcohol to add to the mix. Then the total amount of alcohol in the mix is ...

  0.15×20 + x = 0.20×(20 +x)

  3 +x = 4 + 0.2x . . . . simplify

  0.8x = 1 . . . . . . . . . . add -3-0.2x

  x = 1/0.8 = 1.25 . . . . divide by 0.8

1.25 gallons of alcohol should be added to make 21.25 gallons of 20% alcohol.

What is the length of the missing side? What is the area of the figure?<br>Show ALL work.​
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Missing side=25 units.

Area of the figure= 470 sq units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is made up of a rectangle and a triangle.

To get the base of the triangle, we find the difference between the two parallel sides, that is, 16ft and 31 ft.

31ft-16ft=15ft  

The height of the triangle is 20 since it is parallel and equal to the length of the rectangle.

We therefore use pythagoras theorem to find ?

a²+b²=c²

15²+20²=c²

625=c²

c=25

ii. The figure is a trapezium therefore we use the following formula to find the area.

A= 1/2(a+b)h, where a and b are the two parallel sides. and h the distance between them.

=(1/2)(31+16)×20

=470 sq units
