Answer:

3 1/3 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Bob's rate:: 1/5 job/hr

Bill's rate:: 1/8 job/hr

together rate:: 1/x job/hr

Equation:

rate + rate = together rate

1/5 + 1/8 = 1/x

8x + 5x = 40

13x = 40

x = 40/13 = 3 1/3 hr (time to do the job together)

The ratio of isabellas money to shanes money is 3:11. If isabella has $33, how much money do Shane and Isabella have together?
solong [7]
The ratio of Isabella’s money to Shane’s money is 3:11

Isabella has $33.   

We can make a proportion to solve for how much money Shane has.   
A proportion is two ratios that are set equal to each other.  

Let’s call Shane’s money ‘S’   

We get this proportion:   3/11 = 33/x   

If we cross multiply we get:   
(33) * (11) = (3) * (x)   

Simplifying it, we get:
363 = (3) * (x)   

Divide both sides by 3, we get:
x = 121   

However, the question asks how much money they have together. 

Isabella + Shane = Total
33 + 121 = $154   

<span>They have $154 together.</span>

While shopping at a clearance sale, Samantha finds a $60.00 dress on sale for 25% off. Samantha also has a 50% off coupon. Which
liq [111]

It seems most likely that ...

... Samantha will save $37.50 because she must first find the 25% sale price before taking the extra 50% reduction

_____

In the real world, it seems probable that Samantha will be offered the choice of using the coupon <em>or</em> the sale discount. If she chooses tht 50% coupon, her savings will be $30. If she chooses the marked sale discount, her savings will be $15.

The scenario above assumes she gets 50% off the sale price of $45, so saves $15+22.50 = $37.50 off the original price.
