You are dividing the piece of wood into 8 pieces, so you divide 4/5 by 8. You will get 1/10, which is your answer. Each piece of wood will be 1/10 of a foot long.

Machine A can complete a certain job in x hours. Machine B can complete the same job in y hours. If A and B work together at the
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

\frac{y}{x+y}

Step-by-step explanation:

The required answer is the rate at  which Machine A  works when the two machines are combined.

Note: the rate of doing work is express as

rate=\frac{1}{time taken} \\

Hence we can conclude that Machine A working rate is

machine A=\frac{1}{x} \\ and machine B working rate is

machine B=\frac{1}{y} \\

When the two machine works together, the effective working rate is

\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}\\\frac{xy}{x+y}\\

The fraction of the work that Machine B will not have complete because of Machine A help is the total work done by machine A

Hence the fraction of work done by A is expressed as

\frac{1}{x}*combine working rate

\frac{1}{x}*\frac{xy}{x+y}\\\frac{y}{x+y} \\

Hence the fraction of the work that Machine B will not have complete because of Machine A help is the total work done by machine A is \frac{y}{x+y} \\

Can a five year old do Algebra? yes but how and why?
melamori03 [73]

A five year old can do algebra. They can if they are one of those VERY rare children. By rare children I mean their brains can process work faster than others making them able to understand it yet being so young. Also maybe because they had learned quickly they had found a algebra book and started to self teach themselves how to do that. Because if a child has a strong mind and can grasp things and learn for themselves they can learn it from looking at complete problems. Then solve them. I have seen kids be able to do math like this at a young age because they were quick at grasping the information. Also it could be that they had copied a basic formula for algebra off of a website or math book and just put their numbers in and started solving it like that. Also it could just be that they had learned it form a parent or older sibling because they were smart enough they were able to already be learning. Finally it could just be that they are a mathematical genius and were able to complete things like that themselves.
