Answer: it will take a combined rate of 2.67 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Father can do the job on the farm in 6 hours. This means that the father's unit rate of working will be 1/6
The older son can do it in 8 hours. This means that the older son's rate of working will be 1/8
The younger son can do same job in 12 hours. This means that the younger son's working rate is 1/12
When they work together, they will be working simultaneously. It means that their unit rates are additive. The combined unit rates will be
1/6 + 1/8 + 1/12 = (20 + 15 + 10)/120
45/120
Assuming it takes t hours for them to complete the work while doing it together. Their combined unit rate will be 1/t
45/120 = 1/t
45t = 120
t = 120/45 = 2.67 hours
The answer would be 8500m
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+2y=2------------1
-3x+5y=5-----------2
adding 1 and 2 we get
7y=7
y=1
and from (1),we get
3x+2×1=2
3x=0
x=0 is the required value of x.
Answer:
10/39
Step-by-step explanation:
The chances of picking a black sock on first try are 8/13, and the chances of picking out a yellow sock without replacing the black sock are 5/12. If you multiply 8/13 and 5/12, you get 40/156, and if you simplify, you will get 10/39 as your answer.
The answer is $4.40
mutiply 350 by 5% and get 17.5 then divide thag by 4 and you get 4.37 and you supposed to round it up which will be 4.40
