The answer is 7x = 6(x + 15)
x - Jim's rate
y - Pete's rate
<span>Jim completed half the floor in 7 hours: 7x = half of the floor
</span><span>Pete completed the other half of the floor in 6 hours: 6y = half of the floor
So: 7x = 6y
</span><span>Pete can lay 15 more tiles per hour than Jim: y = x + 15
</span>7x = 6y
y = x + 15
Substitute the second equation into the first one:
7x = 6(x + 15)
69.75

Answer:
tan T = 3/4
tan U = 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent ratio is opposite / adjacent. The ratio will vary for each angle since the perspective of each angle will be different. For example Angle T has an adjacent side of 4 while Angle U has an adjacent side of 3. The tangent ratios for Angles U and T are listed below:
tan T = 3/4
tan U = 4/3
Let’s take the number .666666 repeating
If we turn it into a fraction it’s 2/3.
It doesn’t matter how many numbers repeat to write a fraction.
Hope this helps.
