Answer:
Exact Form: 15/2
Decimal Form: 7.5
Mixed Number Form: 7 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Time taken by Michelle to complete the work alone = 6 hours
Time taken by Nancy to complete the work alone = 3 hours
Now, when they both are working on the same job for 1 hour,
Amount of job completed = (1/6) + (1/3)
= (1 + 2)/6
= 3/6
= 1/2
So in 1 hours time they both will complete half of the job. Then in 2 hours Michelle and Nancy will complete the total job. I hope the answer has come to your help.
This is an arithmetic sequence with the common difference being 1
and if u have 1 cent on day 1 and 2 cents on day 2....then on day 40, u would have 40 cents....but we need the sum of all the days..
the sum of an arithmetic sequence can be found using the formula :
sn = n(a1 + an) / 2
n = number of terms = 40
a1 = first term = 1
an = last term = 40
now we sub
s(40) = 40(1 + 40) / 2
s(40) = 40(41)/2
s(40) = 1640/2
s(40) = 820.....820 cents = $ 8.20 <== the sum
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Method
Inversely in this sentence means
y = k/x
So you first step is to find the value of k. You do that by setting up an inverse relationship with y = 2 , x = 5
2 = k/5 Multiply both sides by 5
2*5 = 5*k/5
10 = k
Now you are able to answer the question.
y = 10/x
3= 10/x Multiply both sides by x
3*x = x * 10/x
3x = 10 Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 10/3
x = 3.33 or x = 3 1/3
Answer
x = 3.33 or x = 3 1/3
