Step-by-step explanation:
$20/hr carpenter pay
$25/hr blacksmith pay
Let c = hours working carpentry
Let b = hours working as blacksmith
c + b = 30 {equation 1}
20c + 25b = 690 {equation 2}
In equation 1 solve for one variable in terms of the other.
c = 30-b
Substitute that into equation 2:
20(30-b) + 25b = 690
600 - 20b + 25b = 690
5b = 90
b = 90/5
b = 18 hours working as a blacksmith
c = 30-b = 30-18 = 12 hours as a carpenter
Answer:
3.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, create a Rate, Time, Work chart:
Work is rate times time. For Kevin, his work is going to equal x over 6 job. For Anna, her expression for work will equal x over 9 job.
The work is 1 job of calling all clients, so their combined work is equal to 1.
x over 6 plus x over 9 equals 1
In the rational equation, x is the amount of time it takes Kevin and Anna to call the clients together. With rational equations, the terms can be added together once they have common denominators.
x over 6 plus x over 9 equals 1
fraction numerator begin display style x left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style over denominator begin display style 6 left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style end fraction plus fraction numerator begin display style x left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis end style over denominator begin display style 9 left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis end style end fraction equals fraction numerator begin display style 1 left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end style over denominator left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis left parenthesis 9 right parenthesis end fraction
fraction numerator 9 x over denominator 54 end fraction plus fraction numerator 6 x over denominator 54 end fraction equals 54 over 54
9 x plus 6 x equals 54
15 x equals 54
x equals 3.6
If Kevin and Anna work together, they can call all the clients in 3.6 hours.
We know that:
time=distance/speed
if the tortoise speed is x m/min, then since 0.5 m/hr=1/120 m/min
18/x=23+18/(x+1/120)
solving for x we get:
x=0.08 m/min
speed of hare is:
(0.08+1/120)=0.088 m/min
Rational numbers can be written as a fraction
