Let me help you with this :)

John = x 
Mike = y

x = 4 + 3y (4 more than 3 times)

x + y = 20 (we put the x above into this equation)

4 + 3y + y = 20 
4y = 16 (we transfers the 4 on the left side to the right side and subtract it from the 20)
y = 4 (the answer is 4)

we use this for the equation:

x = 4 +3*4
x = 16

John is 16 years old and Mike is 4 years old :)

A cutting tool fails due to flank wear while machining. It is observed that the tool life at a cutting speed of 160 m/min is 5 m
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The answer is:

30 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

at 160 m/min, tool life = 5 min.

at 120 m/min, tool life = 17 min.

This means that as the speed reduced from 160 m/min to 120 m/min, the tool life increased from 5 min. to 17 min, hence the difference between the changes are:

speed = 160 - 120 = 40 m/min

tool life = 17 - 5 = 12 min.

Therefore, it can be concluded that a change of speed of 40 m/min, increases the tool life by 12 min.

40 m/min = 12 min

∴ 1 m/min = 12/40 min.

∴ 100 m/min = 12/40 × 100 = 0.3 × 100 =30 min.

Ms. Federman graded 5 papers in 40 minutes. At this rate, how many minutes will it take her to grade 30 papers?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

240 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's 40 minutes for just 5 papers, we need to figure how many minutes it would take to grade just 1. So you have to divide 40 by 5 which is 8. Then 8 time 30 which is 240.
