On their way up the hill, Jack and Jill were stopped by their parents. It seems the two of them were trying to skip out on some

chores. They were told to mow the lawn, clean the kitchen, and sweep the leaves off the deck. If Jack can complete all the chores in 3 hours by himself and Jill takes only 2.25 hours to get all of it done on her own, how many minutes will it take for the two of them to get the work done together

Answer:

77.14 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack's time = 3 hours

Jill's time = 2.25 hours = 2 1/4 = 9/4 hours

Combined time = x

Rates :

Jack = 1/3 ; jill = 1 / 2.25 = 1 / 9/4 = 4 /9

Combined rate = 1/x

Setting up the equation :

1/3 + 4/9 = 1/x

Lcm of 3 and 9 = 9

(3 + 4) / 9 = 1/x

7/9 = 1/x

Cross multiply :

7x = 9

x = 9/7 hours

x = (9/7)* 60

x = 77.14 minutes

Combined time = 77.14 minutes.

yaroslaw [1]

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

Find the arc length of the partial circle. <br>length is 1.<br>**See attached photo**<br>​
KatRina [158]

Arc length of the quarter circle is 1.57 units.

Solution:

Radius of the quarter circle = 1

Center angle (θ) = 90°

To find the arc length of the quarter circle:

$\text{Arc length}=2 \pi r\left(\frac{\theta}{360^\circ}\right)

                 $=2 \times 3.14  \times 1\left(\frac{90^\circ}{360^\circ}\right)

                $=2 \times 3.14  \times 1\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)

Arc length = 1.57 units

Arc length of the quarter circle is 1.57 units.
