Answer:
4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
In 6 hours, J paints 1 room
So, in 1 hour, J paints 1/6 th of the room
Using similar logic, in 1 hour, T paints 1/12 th of the room.
Working together in one hour, they paint (1/6+1/12) th =1/4 of the room.
1/4 of the room is painted in 1 hour
So, 1 room is painted in 1 1/4=4 hours
Answer: The price for the computer = $1152
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first boy = F
Let the second boy = S
Let the price of computer = C
The second boy had 5/ 6 of the money the first had. I.e
S = 5/6 F
Then F = 6/5S ......(1)
The first boy had 7 /8 of the price of the computer. That is
F = 7/8C ....... (2)
Substitute F in (1) into (2)
6/5S = 7/8C
S = 5/6 × 7/8C
S = 35/48C ......(3)
Together they had $696.00 more than they need to pay. That is
F + S = C + 696 ........ (4)
Substitute equation 2 and 3 into 4
7/8C + 35/48C = C + 696
0.875C + 0.729C = C + 696
0.604C = 696
C = 696/0.604
C = 1152 dollars
Therefore, the price for the computer = $1152
Answer:
$20
Step-by-step explanation:
Easy formula for these problems is new price divided by change in percent as decimal with 1 at begining. So for this problem it is 21.05/1.0525. You can then test your answer by muliply you answer by 1.0525.
(9x+5) - (6x-8) = 9x+5 - 6x+8 = (9x-6x) + (5+8) = 3x+13
___
(4x+10) - (-3x+5) = 4x+10 + 3x-5 = (4x+3x) + (10-5) = 7x+5
