Answer:
3.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, create a Rate, Time, Work chart:
Work is rate times time. For Kevin, his work is going to equal x over 6 job. For Anna, her expression for work will equal x over 9 job.
The work is 1 job of calling all clients, so their combined work is equal to 1.
x over 6 plus x over 9 equals 1
In the rational equation, x is the amount of time it takes Kevin and Anna to call the clients together. With rational equations, the terms can be added together once they have common denominators.
x over 6 plus x over 9 equals 1
fraction numerator begin display style x left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style over denominator begin display style 6 left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style end fraction plus fraction numerator begin display style x left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis end style over denominator begin display style 9 left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis end style end fraction equals fraction numerator begin display style 1 left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style over denominator left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end fraction
fraction numerator 9 x over denominator 54 end fraction plus fraction numerator 6 x over denominator 54 end fraction equals 54 over 54
9 x plus 6 x equals 54
15 x equals 54
x equals 3.6
If Kevin and Anna work together, they can call all the clients in 3.6 hours.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What you are trying to do is a nice way to solve this problem. Without knowing any physics, you are using what math you know to get the answer. You are actually very close to being correct, and you are right. You do have to divide by 60.
Here's why and it is the one bit of physics you have to know.
The speed is km/hour. That word hour is the culprit. Your time is in minutes and you have to get it into hours. In physics, the units have to be consistent.
So ...
b1 = 19 minutes which is 19 min [1 hour / 60 minutes] = 19/60 = 0.31667 hour
b2 = 26 minutes which is 26 min [ 1 hour/60 minutes] = 26/60 = 0.4333 hour
h = 40 km/hour
Area = (0.31667 hour + 0.4333 hour)*40 km/hour /2
Area = 0.75 hour * 40 km/hr //2
Area = 15 km
Answer:
D,x < 36 and x > 0, negative number cannot be in sq.root
This can be done without exponential equations.
It doubles every 12 years so it has doubled in price
5,000 * 2 = 10,000
After 36 years the value has increased 8 times
5,000 * 8 = 40,000
After 48 years the value has increased 16 times
5,000 * 16 = 80,000

Answer:
47.71
Step-by-step explanation:
Two "special" triangles are involved.
ΔSWR is a 30°-60°-90° right triangle, so will have sides in the ratio 1 : √3 : 2.
ΔUVW is a 45°-45°-90° right triangle so will have sides in the ratio 1 : 1 : √2.
For ΔSWR, the side SW is given as 6, so the other sides are ...
WR = 6√3
RS = 2(6) = 12
For ΔUVW, the side WU is given as 8, so the other sides are ...
UV = VW = 8/√2 = 4√2
Then the perimeter of the figure is ...
P = RS +ST +TU +UV +VW +WR
P = 12 +8 +6 +4√2 +4√2 +6√3 ≈ 47.71
