Step-by-step explanation:
5 [13 + 10 = (3 + 2)] + 9 x 2
65+50=25+18
115=43
The painter needs at least two gallons of paint to cover the wall.
To get this answer, you first need to find the area of the wall; by multiplying 20.5 x 16.4. This will get you 336.2.
Then, you need to divide 336.2 by 200. This will get you approx. 1.6.
If it's asking for partial gallons as well, stop here. Your answer is 1.6.
If not, continue.
Unless you're including partial gallons, you can't get 1.6 gallons of paint, so you need to round up. This will be 2 gallons.
Short Answer: 18 minutes
Remark
The answer to this problem is less than the smallest time of the two people working together. that fact lets out C and D (38 minutes and 75 minutes). Now you have to choose 15 minutes and 18 minutes. There's a method. No guessing needed.
Givens
Let the time for Sophie = S
Let the time for Simon = M
Let the job to completion = 1
S = 45 minutes
M = 30 minutes
Step One
Convert minutes to hours.
45 minutes = 45 / 60 = 3/4 hour = 0.75 hour
30 minutes = 30 / 60 = 1/2 hour = 0.50 hour
Step Two
Set up the Equation
The formula is a form of job / hour.
Let the time = t that they both have to work
job = 1 in these problems.
1/S + 1/M = 1/t
1/0.75 + 1/0.5 = 1/t
Solve
1 ÷ 0.75 = 1.33333
1 ÷ 0.5 = 2
1.3333 + 2 = 3.33333
3.3333 = 1 / t Multlply both sides by t
3.3333*t = 1
t = 1 / 3.333333333
t = 0.3 of an hour
1 hour = 60 minutes
0.3 hours = x Cross Multiply
x = 60 * 0.3
x = 18 minutes
Answer working together it took them 18 minutes <<<<<
your final answer should be.... -3 • (61c - 70)
The answer would be C.(-2,-3); Minimum.
