Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² + 12² = 13², so
x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = = 5
Total Time = (M x K) / (M + K)
5 = (8 x K) / (8 + K)
40 + 5 K = 8K
40 = 3K
King can do the job in 13.33 Hours
King could mow (1 / 13.33) of the lawn in one hour.
5 = (8 x K) / (8 + K)
40 + 5 K = 8K
40 = 3K
King can do the job in 13.33 Hours
King could mow (1 / 13.33) of the lawn in one hour.
