Answer:

c =4 4/9 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is

1/a + 1/b = 1/c  where a and b is the time for each working alone and c is the time working together

1/8 + 1/10 = 1/c

Multiply by 40c to clear the fractions  ( 40c is the least common multiple)

40c(1/8 + 1/10 = 1/c)

5c + 4c = 40)

9c = 40

Divide by 9

9c/9 = 40/9

c =4 4/9 minutes

Which expressions are not polynomials?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The middle two expressions shown are not polynomials

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial terms have positive integer exponents on any variables. A 2/3 power is not an integer exponent. Division by y is equivalent to an exponent of -1, which is not a positive integer.

X - 2y = 3<br> 5x + 3y = 2<br> The lines whose equations are shown intersect at which point?
Lady_Fox [76]

The point of intersection of the two lines is at (1,-1)

<h3>System of equation</h3>

The given system of expression is shown below

x - 2y = 3

5x + 3y = 2

The solution to the system of equation is the point of intersection

From equation 1

x = 3 + 2y

Substitute into 2

5(3+2y) + 3y = 2

15 +10y + 3y = 2

13y = -13

y = -1

Substitute y = -1 into 3

x = 3 + 2y

x = 3+(-2)

x = 1

Hence the point of intersection of the two lines is at (1,-1)
