X= number of hours would it take Jason to wash the van by himself.
2x=number of hours would it take Wendy to wash the van by herserlf.
<span>we calcaulate the fraction of work by Jason during one hour </span>
x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / x hours=1/x
we calculate the fraction of work by Wendy during one hour.
2x hours-----------------------------1 work
1 hour---------------------- fraction of work during one hour.
fraction of work during one hour=(1 hour * 1work) / 2x hours=1/2x
We can suggest this equation:
2 hours(fraction of work by Jason during one hour + fraction of work by Wendy during one hour)=1 work
2(1/x + 1/2x)=1
least common multiple=2x
2(2+1)=2x
2(3)=2x
6=2x
x=6/2
x=3
answer: 3 hours would ti take Jason to wash the van by himself.
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Solve the equation for x by finding a, b, and c of the quadratic then applying the quadratic formula.
Exact Form:
x = − 70 ± √4210/30
Decimal Form:
x = −0.03
Step-by-step explanation:
5x(6x+28)=−23
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
30x2+140x=−23
Step 2: Subtract -23 from both sides.
30x2+140x−(−23)=−23−(−23)
30x2+140x+23=0
Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=30, b=140, c=23.
x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a
x=−(140)±√(140)2−4(30)(23)/2(30)
x=−140±√16840/60
x=−7/3+1/30√4210 or x=−7/3+−1/30√4210
Set as a proportion
16 = 12
------------------
5x+2 24
cross multiply
12(5x+2) = 16 * 24
60x +24 = 384
60x +24-24 = 384-24
60x =360
60x/60=360/60
x =6
To figure AB plug 6 into 5x+2
5x +2
5(6) + 2
30+2
32
AB = 32
The solution to the system of equations is x = 3 and y = 10
<h3>How to solve the equations?</h3>
The system is given as:
2x-2y=-14
3x-y=-1
Multiply (1) by 1 and (2) by 2
So, we have:
1(2x-2y=-14)
2(3x-y=-1 )
This gives
2x - 2y=-14
6x - 2y=-2
Subtract the equations
-4x = -12
Divide by -4
x = 3
Substitute x = 3 in 3x-y=-1
3(3)-y=-1
Evaluate
9 - y = -1
Solve for y
y = 10
Hence, the solution to the system of equations is x = 3 and y = 10
