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

Greg has 4 shirts: a white one, a black one, a red one, and a blue one. He also has two pairs of pants, one blue and one tan. Wh
alexgriva [62]

The distribution of the pants and the shirts illustrates probability

The probability that he winds up wearing the white shirt and tan pants is 1/8

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The number of shirts is given as:

Shirts = 4

The number of pants is given as:

Pants = 2

The probability that he winds up wearing the white shirt and tan pants is then calculated as:

P = P(White shirt) * P(tan pant)

This gives

P = 1/4 * 1/2

Evaluate the product

P = 1/8

Hence, the probability that he winds up wearing the white shirt and tan pants is 1/8
