Answer:

It will take them both 24 minutes to mow the lawn if they are working together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Sam can mow a lawn in 40 minutes, and Melissa can mow the same lawn in 80 minutes, to determine how long does it take for both Sam and Melissa to mow the lawn if they are working together, the following calculation must be performed:

1/40 + 1/60 = 1 / X

3X + 2X = 120

X = 120/5

X = 24

Thus, it will take them both 24 minutes to mow the lawn if they are working together.

A town has a population of 18000 and grows at 2% every year. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long will it be until the popul
8090 [49]

Answer:

19.9

Step-by-step explanation:

we can write the following equation

18000(1.02)^n

where n is the number of years

so we have

26700=18000(1.02)^n

solve for n

1.483=1.02^n

use logs to solve for n

n=19.9

The nile river, the longest river in the world, is 66.7x100 kilometers long. What is the nile's length?
kvasek [131]

Well if you multiply 66.7 x 100 you get 6,670.0. When multiplying by numbers like 10, 100, 1,000, etc, just simply transfer the 0's. So in this case, there are 2 0's in 100, so you add 2 of the 0's behind 66.7.  So when you add the 2 of the 0's you get 6,670.0 which should be your answer.

What is the answer to a and b please and thank you
vagabundo [1.1K]
A.) according to the graph, Austin appears to be burning 10 calories per minute. If you look at a perfect point on the graph, which I chose (50,5) and you do x over y or calories per minute, you get a unit rate of 10 calories per minute.

b.) Since you have already found the unit rate in question a, your slope would be 10.
