Answer:
is this science?
Step-by-step explanation:
This kind of problems requires to add the working velocities. The total velocity is the sum of the individual velocities.
Anita's velocity = 1 pool/8 hours
Chao's velocity = 1 pool/6 hours
Combined velocity 1/8 + 1/6 = (3 + 4)/24 = 7/24 pool/hour
Time = 1 pool / (7/24) pool/hour = 24/7 hour =3.43 hours
Answer:
a=1 or a=5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to attempt to factor 6a^2-a-5
a=6
b=-1
c=-5
Find two numbers that multiply to be a*c and add to be b.
a*c=-30 =-6(5)
b=-1 =-6+5
So replace -a with -6a+5a in the expression we started with
6a^2-6a+5a-5
now we factor by grouping
6a(a-1)+5(a-1)
(a-1)(6a-5)
Now let's solve the equation:
(a-1)(6a-5)=0
So a=1 or a=5/6
