Lets say your numbers are these...
10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90 and 100
you would add those to get 650
Now how many numbers did you add?
You added 10
so now divided
650 by 10
you get 65
that is the mean of those numbers!
Let x = the number of hours Eva needs to complete the job
and y = the number of hours Emily needs to complete the job
x = 6
1/x + 1/y = 1/4
(The amount of work Eva does in 1 hr + the amount of work Emily does in 1 hr should equal 1/4 of the total work)
1/6 + 1/y = 1/4
1/y = 1/12
y = 12 hours
Emily would take 12 hours to do it by herself.
If one of them got there faster, who will it be?? 147 Miles keep that in mind ok. If they go on the Same route and Drive at Constant Speed. And Alan will start at 1:45 to 4:15. You will see the Difference of, 1:45 = 4:15 The 1 Has switched into the tens and the 4 Has Switched into The 100's. Alan Got there Fast. Margot Got there Faster. If you can Solve The Equation y=64x It will be 36y. 36 Miles speed. Well they need gas? we will find out later. Margot Got to City a To City B. so the Answer is. Margot Got there Fast Before Alan.
