Answer:
x: work a woman can do in 1 day
y: work a girl can do in 1 day
Then
2x + 7y =1/4
4x + 4y =1/3
4x + 14y =2/4 (1)
4x + 4y =1/3 (2)
=> Let (1) - (2), 10y =2/4-1/3 <=>10y = 1/6 <=> y = 1/(6x10) = 1/60 (work)
=> From (2),4x = 1/3 - 4x1/60 => 4x = 16/60 => x = 4/60 (work)
=> 1 day, a woman and a girl can do: 1/60+4/60 = 5/60 =1/12 (work)
Then, the day required for a woman and a girl to complete work: 12 days
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of adult to children is determined by number of adult / number of children.
We want to determine the three ratios that are equivalent to 2 adults 5 children. So we will divide each of the given number of adults and children.
1) 8 adults 20 children = 8/20 = 2/5
2) 5 adults 8 children = 5/8
3) 20 adults 50 children = 20/50 = 2/5
4) 4 adults 10 children = 4/10 = 2/5
So the three ratios that are equivalent to 2 adults 5 children are
8 adults 20 children,
20 adults 50 children and
4 adults 10 children
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
You should get this answer because the simpliest form of a radical is that you shouldn't have any radical in the denominator. In order to get rid of the radical sign in the denominator, you have to multiply the numerator and the denominator with the
