Answer:  Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = Time taken by Holly to clean alone.

Given: Time taken by Mia to clean alone = 30 minutes

Time taken by Mia and holly to clean their room = 20 minutes

Then,

\dfrac1t+\dfrac{1}{30}=\dfrac{1}{20}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3-2}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t= 60

Hence, Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.

Anita has a cellphone contract that costs her R100 per month plus 85 cents per peak time SMS,and 25 cents per off-peak time SMS.
algol [13]

Answer:

Anita's monthly bill will be $164.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Anita has a cellphone contract that costs her R100 per month plus 85 cents per peak time SMS, and 25 cents per off-peak time SMS, if she sends 45 SMSs during peak time and 105 SMSs during off-peak time In a month To determine what will her monthly bill come to, the following calculation must be performed:

100 + (0.85 x 45) + (0.25 x 105) = X

100 + 38.25 + 26.25 = X

138.25 + 26.25 = X

164.25 = X

Therefore, her monthly bill will be $ 164.25.

What is the answer a or b to this question
galina1969 [7]
The answer would be A.

Explanation:

If they enter with one car, that’s a price of $3 for the car alone. Because there’s also a fee for each person who enters, and there is a family of 5 who enters, x is representative of the cost for each person who enters. Therefore, there would be 5 x’s and one 3 that when solved would add up to the total of $45 they spent. That would mean A is correct because the equation would be x + x + x + x + x + 3 = 45.

An European style café latte uses 1.5oz of espresso and 8oz of milk. You accidentally add 12oz of milk to 1.5oz of espresso. How
ELEN [110]

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The one thing that changes in the problem is the milk. It goes from 8 oz. to 12 oz., so we are going to use the oz count to determine the amount of espresso. Since the amount of milk rose, so is the amount of espresso. Now, you take the larger number and divide it by the smaller number (12 / 8 = 1.5). This answer will tell you by what multiple it increased by. Once you have the multiple it increased by, you multiply that answer (1.5) by the other unknown changing number, so 1.5 x 1.5. Do this and you get 2.5.
