Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)
Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)
Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)
==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy
But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50
Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5
i think the person below me is correct and the answer is 12
The kangaroo's speed in feet per second is 58.67 feet per second
<h3>What was the kangaroo's speed in feet per second?</h3>
The speed is given as:
Speed = 40 mph
Rewrite properly as
Speed = 40 miles per hour
1 mile = 5280 feet
So, we have
Speed = 40 * 5280 feet per hour
Evaluate
Speed = 211200 feet per hour
1 hour = 3600 seconds
So, we have:
Speed = 211200 feet per 3600 seconds
Evaluate the quotient
Speed = 58.67 feet per seconds
Hence, the kangaroo's speed in feet per second is 58.67 feet per seconds
