Answer:

7 hours 30min

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one :

Given data

We are told that Erica can paint 1 room in 5hours

Her work rate is 1/5 room per hour

And also with the assistance of her friend they can paint 1 room in 3 hours

Hence their combined work rate is 1/3 room per hour

Step two

The combined work expression is

1/A+1/B=1/T

Where A=Erica's work rate

B=Rachael's work rate

T=combined work

1/5+1/B=1/3

1/B=1/3-1/5

1/B=5-3/15

1/B=2/15

B=15/2

B=7.5 hours

It will take Rachel 7 hours 30min to paint the room

4. If the paint costs $30 per gallon and you need to spend $60 on supplies, and you can
Bezzdna [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

if I understand this right, then you need paint and additional supplies.

but I don't see any information indicating how many gallons of paint I will need.

so, I can go only with the 1 gallon specified.

so,

1×30 + 60 = $90

we can save $45 per month.

then we need

90 / 45 = 2

months to have enough money.

please update the numbers to how many gallons you really need, and then take that result and divide it by the 45 savings per month.

What point on the graph of y = 0.5f(x) corresponds to (4, 16)? Explain.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

We are given a coordinate (4,16).

Where first coordinate is the value of x and second coordinate is the value of y for the function y=f(x).

We need to find the value of given point (4,16) for function y= 0.5f(x).

Here function f(x) is being multiplied by 0.5.

On multiplying 0.5 by y, it will effect the value of y only. It does not effect value of  x . Because x value is still x. Only function f(x) is being multiplied by 0.5.

Therefore, y= 0.5f(4) = 0.5 * 16 = 8.

So, (4,8) is the point on the graph of y = 0.5f(x) corresponds to (4, 16).

Each batch of ms.crawley's cookies makes 14 cookies. if sandy needs 8 dozen cookies for her bake s how many batches does she hav
erica [24]
7 batches. There is 12 cookies in a dozen so multiply 8×12 to get 96 cookies. 96 Is the total cookies you need to make. So if you divide 96 by the 14 to see how many batches you must make. you will get a number of 6.85... so you must round up to 7.
