Answer:
The 4th one.
Step-by-step explanation:
On all the tables x and y are always increasing, except for the 4th one where the y is decreasing.
Answer:
24 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 + 1/3 = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12
7/12 a + 8 = 22
7/12 a = 14
a = 14 x 12/7
a = 24
Answer:
(-6, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Reflection across the y-axis leaves the point on the same horizontal line, but with the sign of its x-coordinate changed.
(x, y) ⇒ (-x, y) . . . . . reflection across the y-axis
(6, -5) ⇒ (-6, -5)
The image point is (-6, -5).
Short Answer: 18 minutes
Remark
The answer to this problem is less than the smallest time of the two people working together. that fact lets out C and D (38 minutes and 75 minutes). Now you have to choose 15 minutes and 18 minutes. There's a method. No guessing needed.

Let the time for Sophie = S
Let the time for Simon = M
Let the job to completion = 1
S = 45 minutes
M = 30 minutes
Step One
Convert minutes to hours.
45 minutes = 45 / 60 = 3/4 hour = 0.75 hour
30 minutes = 30 / 60 = 1/2 hour = 0.50 hour
Step Two
Set up the Equation
The formula is a form of job / hour.
Let the time = t that they both have to work
job = 1 in these problems.
1/S + 1/M = 1/t
1/0.75 + 1/0.5 = 1/t
Solve
1 ÷ 0.75 = 1.33333
1 ÷ 0.5 = 2
1.3333 + 2 = 3.33333
3.3333 = 1 / t Multlply both sides by t
3.3333*t = 1
t = 1 / 3.333333333
t = 0.3 of an hour
1 hour = 60 minutes
0.3 hours = x Cross Multiply
x = 60 * 0.3
x = 18 minutes
Answer working together it took them 18 minutes <<<<<
Remember that you can always multiply or divide BOTH the numerator and denominator
of the fraction by anything you want to. You just have to do exactly the same to both of
them.
The way to simplify a fraction is to divide both the numerator and denominator by their
greatest common factor.
Do you see all of those 'x's on the top and bottom ? The top and bottom can
both be divided by x-cubed.
<u>Numerator:</u>
Divide (-4³) by x³, and you have (-4) left.
<u>Denominator:</u>
Divide (x³ - 2x⁴) by x³, and you have (1 - 2x) left.
So, the simplified fraction is [ -4 / (1 - 2x) ].
That's a perfectly good answer, but you could make it look a little prettier
if you multiply the top and bottom both by -1 . Then it would be
4 / (2x - 1) .
Either one is fine.
