Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the bricklayer can construct the wall in its entirety in 3 hours, then he can get 1/3 of the job done in an hour.
If the apprentice can get the whole job done in 5 hours, then he can get 1/5 of the job done in an hour. If they both work together on said job, the equation is
and now we solve for x. Multiply everything by the LCM to get rid of the fractions. That would be 15x:
and doing that gives us
5x + 3x = 15 and
8x = 15 so
x = 1.875 hours which is 1 7/8 hours which is also 1 hour and 52 1/2 minutes.
Answer:
(x-5)(x+6)=0
Step-by-step explanation:
hehe i doing the smae unit rn.
if a=1 (which it does do ac factoring)
you need two numbers that multiply to -30 and add to 1. those numbers are 5 and -6.
substitute 1x for -5x + 6x.
group the numbers into pairs and find their gcf's
x(x-5) 6(x-5)
since the parenthesis r the same yo only need one. Now you need to put x and 6 in a parenthesis.
FINAL: (x-5)(x+6) hope this helps
Answer:
w = 
Step-by-step explanation:
p = 2l + 2w Subtract 2l from both sides of the equation
p - 2l = 2p Divide both sides by 2
= w
Answer:
39.50
42.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Age of the 2 men = sum of the ages of the 6 men - sum of the ages of the 4 men
Average = sum of ages / total number of men
35 = sum of ages / 6
sum of ages = 35 x6 = 210
32 = sum of ages / 4
32 x 4 = sum of ages
128
210 - 128 = 82
age of the younger man = x
age of the older man = 3 + x
x + 3 + x = 82
2x + 3 = 82
2x = 82 - 3
2x = 79
x = 79/2 = 39.5
older man = 39.5 + 3 = 42.50
Answer: Bottom and top (or which ever one is the small box in the middle and the one that looks like the small box in the middle)
Step-by-step explanation: the middle rectangle is the bottom and the other one like it is the top. the length is 7 in. and the height is 4 in. and 4 in. times 7 in. is 28in^2
