Answer:

Time taken by first team by their own =  10 days

Time taken by second team by their own = 15 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

The ratio of the number of days taken by the first team to that of second team = 2:3

Let the number of days taken by first team = 2x days

Let the number of days taken by second team = 3x days

Let the work to be done = 6x units

So, Efficiency of first team = 6x units / 2x days = 3 units/day

Efficiency of second team = 6x units / 3x days = 2 units/day

If they work together they complete in 6 days, then total efficiency = 5 units/day

So,

5 units/ day * 6 days = 6x units

x = 5 units

Total work = 30 units

<u>Time taken by first team by their own = 30 units / 3 units/day = 10 days</u>

<u>Time taken by second team by their own = 30 units / 2 units/day = 15 days</u>

A point moves along the curve y = √ x in such a way that the y-component of the position of the point is increasing at a rate of
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The value of x component changes at a rate of \frac{dx}{dt}=4\sqrt{x} units per second

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that y=x^{\frac{1}{2}}

Differentiating on both sides with respect to time we get

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{d\sqrt{x}}{dt}\\\\\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}x^{\frac{-1}{2}}(\frac{dx}{dt})\\\\\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}\frac{dx}{dt}

It is given that \frac{dy}{dt}=2units/sec

Solving for \frac{dx}{dt} we get

\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{dy}{dt}\times 2\sqrt{x}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=4\sqrt{x}

Karolina [17]
The tunnel is made of two shapes and we can find the volume of each.
Cuboid volume=15×5×30=2250 cu yds.
Half cylinder volume=π(7.5)²30/2=843.75π=2649.38 cu yds.
Total volume=4899.38 cu yds.

If two parents, one with brown eyes (a dominant trait) and the other with blue eyes (the recessive trait) produce one twin boy w
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

50 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that one of the parent with a dominant trait have brown eyes and the other parent with a recessive trait has blue eyes. They produce a twin boy with eyes that is blue in color. So the probability of the fraternal twin to transmit his allele of blue eye to his or her offspring is 50 percent.

And also the probability of the offspring to pass the allele on to his or her offspring is 50 %.

The product rule is used : 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25 or 25%.

Solve for x. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
babymother [125]

Using the law of cosine:

Cosine(angle) = Adjacent leg / Hypotenuse

You are given the angle, and the adjacent leg and need to solve for X, which is the hypotenuse.

Using the formula above you have:

Cosine(58) = 17 / x

Solve for x by dividing 17 by cos(58)

x = 17 / cos(58)

x = 32.08
