Okay, so the rate is 1 job / hours, so:
1/3 + 1/7 (This covers both their work rates) = 1/n (n represents the time it take for them to work together)
Get the LCD:
7/21+ 3/21 = 1/n
10/21 = 1/n
Cross multiply:
10n = 21
n = 2.1
It will take them 2.1 hours, or 2 hours and 6 minutes
Answer:
UNIF(2.66,3.33) minutes for all customer types.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the problem above, it was stated that the office arranged its customers into different sections to ensure optimum performance and minimize workload. Furthermore, there was a service time of UNIF(8,10) minutes for everyone. Since there are only three different types of customers, the service time can be estimated as UNIF(8/3,10/3) minutes = UNIF(2.66,3.33) minutes.
Total cost = $13.05 + 10.26
= $23.31
Indivdual pay = $23.31 / 3
= $7.77 each
