Frank can build a fence in twice the time it would take Sandy. Working together, they can build it in 7 hours. How long will it take each of them to do it alone?
Answer
If Frank and Sandy can build the fence in 7 hours, they must be building
1
7
of the fence every hour.
Now, let the amount of time it takes Sandy be
x
hours so that Frank takes
2
x
hours. Sandy can build
1
x
of the fence every hour and Frank can build
1
2
x
of the fence every hour.
We now have the following equation to solve.
1

Thus, Sandy takes
10.50
hours and Frank takes
21
hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
-w - 11 < or = w - 5
-2w - 11 < or = -5
-2w < or = -16
w > or = -8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know that from a theorem,
A greater angle of a triangle is opposite a greater side. Let ABC be a triangle in which angle ABC is greater than angle BCA; then side AC is also greater than side AB. For if it is not greater, then AC is either equal to AB or less.
As we have angle A =120 so it means the other 2 angles will be less than angle A , hence the opposite side to angle A is BC ,
Hence BC line is the longest line in triangle ABC
