tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Short Answer: 18 minutes
Remark

The answer to this problem is less than the smallest time of the two people working together. that fact lets out C and D (38 minutes and 75 minutes). Now you have to choose 15 minutes and 18 minutes. There's a method. No guessing needed.

Givens
Let the time for Sophie = S
Let the time for Simon = M
Let the job to completion = 1 
S = 45 minutes
M = 30 minutes

Step One
Convert minutes to hours.
45 minutes = 45 / 60 = 3/4 hour = 0.75 hour
30 minutes = 30 / 60 = 1/2 hour = 0.50 hour

Step Two
Set up the Equation
The formula is a form of job / hour.
Let the time = t that they both have to work

job = 1 in these problems.
1/S + 1/M = 1/t
1/0.75 + 1/0.5 = 1/t

Solve
1 ÷ 0.75 = 1.33333
1 ÷ 0.5 = 2

1.3333 + 2 = 3.33333 
3.3333 = 1 / t                    Multlply both sides by t
3.3333*t = 1
t = 1 / 3.333333333
t = 0.3 of an hour


1 hour = 60 minutes
0.3 hours = x              Cross Multiply
x = 60 * 0.3
x = 18 minutes

Answer working together it took them 18 minutes  <<<<<

Molodets [167]

Yep... so they says that the area of the extended leaf is 18+6x... You know that the area is length into breath... here the breath doesn't change.. so it'll be 3ft... can get the length by dividing area by 3... that is 6+2x... Now the new length wil be 2times that plus the previous 6ft length

Can you write a real world problem that uses Pythagorean theorem ?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

1) Road Trip: Let’s say two friends are meeting at a playground. Mary is already at the park but her friend Bob needs to get there taking the shortest path possible. Bob has two way he can go - he can follow the roads getting to the park - first heading south 3 miles, then heading west four miles. The total distance covered following the roads will be 7 miles. The other way he can get there is by cutting through some open fields and walk directly to the park. If we apply Pythagoras's theorem to calculate the distance you will get:

(3)<span>2 </span>+ (4)2 =

9 + 16 = C2

√25 = C

5 Miles. = C

Walking through the field will be 2 miles shorter than walking along the roads. .

2) Painting on a Wall: Painters use ladders to paint on high buildings and often use the help of Pythagoras' theorem to complete their work. The painter needs to determine how tall a ladder needs to be in order to safely place the base away from the wall so it won't tip over. In this case the ladder itself will be the hypotenuse. Take for example a painter who has to paint a wall which is about 3 m high. The painter has to put the base of the ladder 2 m away from the wall to ensure it won't tip. What will be the length of the ladder required by the painter to complete his work? You can calculate it using Pythagoras' theorem:

(5)<span>2 </span>+ (2)2 =

25 + 4 = C2

√100 = C

5.3 m. = C

Thus, the painter will need a ladder about 5 meters high.

3) Buying a Suitcase: Mr. Harry wants to purchase a suitcase. The shopkeeper tells Mr. Harry that he has a 30 inch of suitcase available at present and the height of the suitcase is 18 inches. Calculate the actual length of the suitcase for Mr. Harry using Pythagoras' theorem. It is calculated this way:

(18)<span>2 </span>+ (b)2 = (30)2

324 + b2 = 900

B2 = 900 – 324

b= √576

= 24 inches
