Answer:

48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Reggie can line 1/120 of a football field in 1 minute while Rosalinda can line 1/80 of a football field in 1 minute.

Therefore adding the 2 fractions we get; that BOTH of them can line 1/120+1/80 of a field in 1 minute. 1/120+1/80=1/48.

1/48 of a field can be done in a minute, so it would take them 48 minutes to do 48/48 or 1 whole field.

Answer:

48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Rosalinda can line the football field in 80 minutes

Reggie can line the football field in 120 minutes

Lets assume that if they work together, they will take T minutes to line the football field

Hence;

Thus in 1 minute, Rosalina can line 1/80 of the field where as Reggie can line 1/120 of the field

\frac{1}{T} =\frac{1}{120} +\frac{1}{80} \\\\\frac{1}{T} =\frac{2+3}{240}\\\\

The sum of the two fractions will represent the size of the field that can be lined in 1 minute.

\frac{1}{T} =\frac{5}{240} \\\\\frac{1}{T} =\frac{1}{48} \\T= 48

The reciprocal of the sum of the two fractions will represent the time taken for both Rosalinda and Reggie to line the field.

Answer ; It will take them 48 minutes for them to line the football field

2x-1=3/4x+9<br> Help Me Brainilist to whoever explains the best
alexdok [17]

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

normally it would be 2x-1=\frac{3}{4}x+9 so now we have to combine the x into one fraction which will be 2x-1=\frac{3x}{4}+9 now for my way i will be taking the -1 to the other side and when that happens its going to become positive so now the answer will be 2x=\frac{3x}{4}+10 ok so now we have to have the x's to the same side so i have to drag the fraction to the other side and making it positive which will conclude into 1.25x=10 and now 10 divided by 1.25 is 8 so the answer is x=8 (sorry for the ok nows) hope this helped

13. Maria earns $8 per hour plus a 5% commission on the price
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Inequality:

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solution:

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the weekly sales she must make to reach her goal.

Given;

Pay rate = $8

Weekly total work hours = 15 hours

Commission on sales = 5% = 0.05

Total weekly earnings is;

8×15 + 0.05×x

120 + 0.05x

Minimum Weekly target earnings = $200

So;

120 + 0.05x ≥ 200

Solving the inequality equation;

0.05x ≥ 200 - 120

0.05x ≥ 80

x ≥ 80/0.05

x ≥ 1600

x ≥ $1,600

Her total weekly sales must be equal to or greater than $1,600
