Answer:

7hr 12 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Bob  can type 2 letters in 4 hours

while on the other hand bill can do it in six hours

We need to find out the no of hours in which they type 6 hours

So,

Bob's rate is

= 2 ÷ 4

= 1 ÷ 2 letter per hour

And,  

Bill's rate is

= 2 ÷ 6

= 1 ÷ 3 letter per hour

Now

Together rate is

= 1 ÷ 2 + 1 ÷ 3 = 5 ÷ 6 letter per hour

We know that

rate × hours = production

Let us assume the hours be x

So,  

(5 ÷ 6)x = 6

x = (6 ÷ 5) × 6

x = 36 ÷ 5

= 7 1 ÷ 5

= 7hr 12 min

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

P = 3x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Side 1 = x - 3

Side 2 = x

Side 3 = 2 + (Side 1) = 2 + x - 3 = x - 1

Perimeter = 20 in

Perimeter = Side 1 + Side 2 + Side 3

Perimeter = (x - 3) + (x) + (x - 1)

Perimeter = x - 3 + x + x - 1

Perimeter = 3x - 3 - 1

Perimeter = 3x - 3 - 1

Perimeter = 3x - 4

P = 3x - 4

Solve the system.<br> x+3y= 22<br> 2x -y=2<br> (7,5)<br> (2,2)<br> (4,6)<br> no solution
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

x = 4 , y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{x + 3 y = 22 | (equation 1)

2 x - y = 2 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{2 x - y = 2 | (equation 1)

x + 3 y = 22 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/2 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{2 x - y = 2 | (equation 1)

0 x+(7 y)/2 = 21 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 2/7:

{2 x - y = 2 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6 | (equation 2)

Add equation 2 to equation 1:

{2 x+0 y = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 2:

{x+0 y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 4 , y = 6
