If we say there are 100 cars in a lot (It's an arbitrary number. You can use any number you want), Matthew can wash 100 cars in 14 hours or 7.14 cars an hour. Arianna can wash 100 cars in 11 hours or 9.09 cars an hour. Together, in an hour they can wash 7.14 + 9.09 or 16.23 cars. So to wash 100 cars it would take them 100/16.23 = 6.16 or about 6 hours.
You can do this with variables as well.
Matthew has a rate of x/14 while Arianna has a rate of x/11. Together their rate is x/14 + x/11= x/y
Divide both sides by x, you would get 1/14 + 1/11 = 1/y
Solve for y which would be around 6 hours.
The awnser oild be b because you add and multiply and add and divided and multiply then subtract theb you get 15/2
Answer:
maximum/minimum value for f(x) = ax2 + bx + c: Put the quadratic in standard form f(x) = a(x − h)2 + k, and the absolute
Step-by-step explanation:
maximum/minimum value is k and it occurs at x = h. If a > 0, then the parabola opens up, and it is a minimum functional value of f.
Here is an easy way to figure this out, do 16/5 (16 divided by 5) then what ever that equals, times it by 2 since it's 2/5 not 1/5.
Once you do all of this, it should equal 6.4
