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

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

y=1.8x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

if they are intercepts so the x/y will be zero, so in y intetceot the x is zero, and in the x itercept the y is zero.

0,-9

5,0

we calculate the slooe / rise

-9-0/0-5 = 1.8

we then use this formula

y-y1=rise(x-x1)

y-0=1.8(x-5)

y=1.8x-9
