Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Time taken by Kalon = 4 hours

Time taken by Marna =?

Time taken if the work together = 1 5/7 hours

Kalon's rate = 1/ time =. 1/4

Kalon + Marna = 1 ÷ 1 5/7 = 7/12

Hence,

Marna's rate = 7/12 - 1/4

Marna's Rate = (7 - 3) / 12 = 4/12 = 1/3

Marna's rate = 1/3

Hence, time it takes Marna = reciprocal of rate = 1÷ 1/3 = 1 * 3/1 = 3 hours

Ashley has 20 pieces of candy in a bag: 2 mint sticks, 4 jelly treats, and 14 fruit tart chews. If she eats one piece every 8 mi
AleksAgata [21]
The probability that her first treat is jelly is 4/20. Since she eats the candy and does not replace it, the probability the second treat is jelly would be 3/19 (1 less jelly and 1 less total candies). You would then multiply (4/20) by (3/19). That is your answer.

Why would negative numbers not make sense for the values of the variables
Naily [24]
One reason that negative numbers would not make sense for values of the variables is that the solution having a negative value is not valid. It might be that the expression represents a real word problem and a negative value will not make any sense. Hope this helps.
