Answer: About 3 hours and 5 minutes to paint the room together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally can paint 1/5 of the room in an hour and Steve can paint 1/8 of the room in an hour.

Room/Hour

1/5 ± 1/8 =8/40  

8/40+5/40=13/40

How long to paint the room?

13/40 x 1= 40/13

40÷13=3.0777

So the answer will be Sally and Steve can paint the room in about 3 hours and 5 minutes

Answer:

Table F

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is C = 0.75t. The variable c is for cost and t is for tickets. When we use substitution to solve the equation, we see that table F correctly represents the situation. In simpler terms, the equation is asking us to mutliply the cost PER ticket by the number of tickets.

0.75 * 1 = 0.75

0.75 * 2 = 1.50

0.75 * 3 = 2.25

0.75 * 4 = 3

And so on. As we can see, the only table that shows these values is in fact table F.

Hope this helps!
