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.

What is |-8| ? -16
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

8

Those little "sticks" are called absolute value.

For example, the absolute value of 2 is 2, and the absolute value of −2 is also 2. The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero along real number line.

Thus, it doesn't matter if the number is positive or negative. As it only counts its <u>d</u><u>i</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u>a</u><u>n</u><u>c</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>f</u><u>r</u><u>o</u><u>m</u><u> </u><u>0</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>t</u><u>h</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>n</u><u>u</u><u>m</u><u>b</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u> </u><u>l</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>e</u><u>.</u>

5+3r=5r-19(if there is no solution,type in ''no solution'')r= Answer
TEA [102]

Answer: 12 = r

Step-by-step explanation: When we have this kind of a setup, we want to put our variables together on one side of the equation and our numbers together on the other side of the equation.

First, let's put our variables on the right side by subtracting 3r from both sides of the equation. That gives us 5 = 2r - 19.

Now we can move our numbers to the left by adding 19 to both sides of the equation and we get 24 = 2r.

Divide both sides by 2 and 12 = r

Note:

Don't just do this problem in your head. It's extremely important to develop the habit of putting all your steps down on paper or digitally. It will really pay off for you down the line.
