<u>Answer:</u>

Both Sally ans Manny can detail a car in 20.6 min.

<u>Solution: </u>

Let us assume that together they will take total x minutes to detail the car.

Sally detail the car in 50 min.

So in 1 min sally can detail \left(\frac{1}{50}\right) of the car.

Hence in x min sally can detail \left(\frac{x}{50}\right) of the car.

Manny can detail a car in 35 min.

So in 1 min many can detail \left(\frac{1}{35}\right) of the car.

Hence in x min Manny can detail \left(\frac{x}{35}\right) of the car.

So we can say,

\left(\frac{x}{50}\right)+\left(\frac{x}{35}\right)=1

x\left(\frac{1}{50}+\frac{1}{35}\right)=1

x\left(\frac{7+10}{350}\right)=1

\left(\frac{17 x}{350}\right)=1

17 x=350

x=\left(\frac{350}{17}\right)=20.5 8\approx 20.6

So, both of them can detail a car in 20.6 min.

Luden [163]

Answer:

99

Step-by-step explanation:

-6-5[-4-(6+12)]+(-5)

Following PEMDAS

We work the parentheses from the inside out

-6-5[-4-(18)]+(-5)

-6-5[-22]+(-5)

Now we multiply

-6+110 -5

Now we add and subtract from left to right

104 -5
