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

Investigate how demand elasticities are affected by increases in demand. Apply the midpoint formula to calculate the demand elas
inn [45]

It should be noted that a good that has a high demand elasticity for an economic variable implies that consumer demand for that good is more responsive to changes in the variable.

<h3>How to explain the demand?</h3>

It should be noted that an elastic demand is one werr the change in quantity demanded due to a change in price is large.

Also, an inelastic demand is one in which the change in quantity demanded due to a change in price is small. When the formula creates an absolute value greater than 1, the demand is elastic.

Here, a good that has a high demand elasticity for an economic variable implies that consumer demand for that good is more responsive to changes in the variable.

Solve 3x2 + 4x = −5.
Alla [95]
Move the -5 over by adding 5 to both sides
3x^2+4x+5=0
must use quadratic formula

for an equation in the form
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

a=3
b=4
c=5

x=\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{4^2-4(3)(5)} }{2(3)}
x=\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{16-60} }{6}
x=\frac{-4+/- \sqrt{-44} }{6}
x=\frac{-4+/- 2\sqrt{-11} }{6}
remember that√-1=i
x=\frac{-4+/- 2i\sqrt{-11} }{6}
x=\frac{-2+/- i\sqrt{-11} }{3}

x=\frac{-2+ i\sqrt{-11} }{3} or x=\frac{-2- i\sqrt{-11} }{3}

Write an expression for the sequence of operations described below. multiply 3 by t, triple the result, then raise what you have
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer: 43046721(t^8)

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, multiply 3 by t to get 3t. Then, multiply it again by 3 to get 9t. Raise it to the 8th power to get (9^8)(t^8). This gives you 43046721(t^8)

Suppose a water tank in the shape of a right circular cylinder is thirty feet high and eight feet in diameter. a) How much sheet
Zanzabum

Answer:

755.98 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the Cylinder= 30 feet

Diameter = 8 feet

Radius= Diameter/2 = 8/2 = 4 feet

The Amount of Metal Sheet used in constructing the tank is the Total  Surface Area of the Tank.

Total Surface Area of a Cylinder =

=2\pi r(r+h)\\=2*\pi*4(4+30)\\=8*\pi*30=\\=240\pi\\=755.98 ft^2
