Answer:
55
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x-y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide both sides if the equations by 3.
(3y-3x)÷3=6÷3
y-3x÷3=2
calculate the quotient
y-x=2
multiply both sides of the equation bub -1
-1x(-x)-1y=-1x2
any expression multiplied by -1
x-1y=-1x2
any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same.
x--y=-1x2
x-y=-2
Let's look at work rates per minute.
Together they can paint the wall in x minutes.
Working together, in 1 minute, they do 1/x of the job.
The student who paints the wall in 16 minutes does 1/16 of the job in 1 minute.
The student who paints the wall in 24 minutes does 1/24 of the job in 1 minute.
Together, they do 1/16 + 1/24 of the job in 1 minute, but from above, we see that together, they do 1/x of the job in 1 minute, so 1/16 + 1/24 must equal 1/x. That gives us our equation.
1/16 + 1/24 = 1/x
1/16 * 3/3 + 1/24 * 2/2 = 1/x
3/48 + 2/48 = 1/x
5/48 = 1/x
x = 48/5 = 9.6
Answer: It takes them 9.6 minutes, or about 10 minutes to do the job together.

Answer:
RM = 12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming 20 is the hypotenuse cus there is no picture:
If It's not the hypotenuse:
But I find it unlikely that 20 wasn't the hypotenuse so ignore that unless it applies.
Hope this helped. :0)
