Answer:
24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
One member of the gardening club can alone plant flowers in 12 hours.
So in 1 hour he can plant 1/12 of the flowers.
Let the time required by the second member of the club to plant flowers alone be x hours.
Then in 1 hour he can plant 1/x of the flowers.
Now when the two members work together,each hour they can plant:
![\[\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{x}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B12%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%7D%5C%5D)
of the flowers.
But they can together complete the job in 8 hours. So in one hour they plant 1/8 of the flowers.
=> ![\[\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{8}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B12%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%5C%5D)
=> ![\[\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{24}\] ](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B24%7D%5C%5D%0A)
=> x=24
So the second member can plant the flowers alone in 24 hours
Making the two equations equal to each other
it gives a quadratic equation

Answer: the answer would be 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
she walks 3 miles every 80 minutes and 80 plus 80 would be 160 but this is 120 so it would be 80 plus 40 so its half of 80 so half of 3 is 1.5 so there, hopes this helps
For this case we have the following expression:
x ^ 2 + 15x + 56
We can factor this expression to find the possible dimensions of the rectangle.
Factoring we have:
(x + 7) (x + 8)
Answer:
the possible dimensions are:
(x + 7) * (x + 8)
Answer:
a). We want to know how much each point was worth.
b). 
c). Each problem worth 3 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
a). We want to know how much each problem was worth. Because we have the total points of the test, and how much was the bonus. But we still don't know the worth of each problem.
b). We know that the total points of the test were 41, and the bonus 5 points. There were 12 problems on the test and we are going to use "x" for the unknown part (how many points each problem was worth).
The equation is :
Why 12x? Because if you multiply the twelve problems of the test with the worth of each one and then add the 5 points of the bonus you will obtain the total points of the test (41).
c). Now we have to solve the equation, this means that we have to clear "x":
Subtract 5 from both sides.
Finally divide in 12 both sides of the equation:
Then each problem worth 3 points.
