Answer:

Hello,

60L

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of water /Quantity of milk =2/1

Quantity of mixture= Quantity of water +Quantity of milk =60L

Quantity of milk =40 L

Quantity of water =20 L

Let say x the quantity of water to be added

New ratio =1/2=40/(20+x)

20+x=80 (cross products)

<u>x=60 </u> (L)

Select the correct answer. Sean and Colleen are raking leaves in their yard. Working together, they can clear the yard of leaves
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of minutes it would take colleen to finish the job when he is working alone. Hence, it can be represented by the equation:

\frac{1}{c}+\frac{1}{c+20}  =\frac{1}{24} \\\\Finding\ the\ L.C.M\ of\ the\ fraction\ to\ get\ 24c(c+20)\ as\ the\ L.C.M.\\Multiply\ the\ whole\ equation\ by\ 24c(c+20):\\\\\frac{1}{c}(24c(c+20))+\frac{1}{c+20}(24c(c+20))  =\frac{1}{24}(24c(c+20)) \\\\24c+480+24c=c^2+20c\\\\48c+480=c^2+20c\\\\c^2+20c-48c-480=0\\\\c^2-28c-480=0

Solving the quadratic equation to get c gives:

c = -12 and c = 40

Since the time cannot be negative, hence c = 40 minutes.

It would take colleen 40 minutes to clear the yard of leaves alone

bring down the 0 that's there, but is not shown because it's not important in standard form or decimals.
You get 10 and that's 5
so you have 1.85
