Answer:

23/12 hours or 1.9167 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that Sam can clean the pool in 5 hours. This implies 1:5

Also, his coworker Glenn can clean the same pool in 7 hours. This implies 1:7

Since it's the same pool, let's generate a workrate formula.

Thus;

(1/5)x + (1/7)x = 1

Where x is the amount of time used by both of them to clean 1 pool

Simplifying it, we multiply each term by 35 to get;

7x + 5x = 35

12x = 35

x = 35/12

We are now told that One day Sam

started to clean the pool by himself and worked for an hour.

Thus, remaining time after Sam worked 1 hour is; (35/12) - 1 = 23/12 hours

Thus, time they both used to finish cleaning the pool is 23/12 hours

I put a picture
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Yes, an arrow can be drawn from 10.3 so the relation is a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the diagram on the left is the domain(the inputs) and the diagram on the right is the range(the outputs), yes, an arrow can be drawn from 10.3 and the relation will be a function.

The only time something isn't a function is if two different outputs had the same input. However, it's okay for two different inputs to have the same output.

In this problem, 10.3 is an input. If you drew an arrow from 10.3 to one of the values on the right, 10.3 would end up sharing an output with another input. This is allowed, and the relation would be classified as a function.

However, if you drew multiple arrows from 10.3 to different values on the right, then the relation would no longer be a function because 10.3, a single input, would have multiple outputs.
