Paul can build a desk in 12

Mathematics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]3 years ago

Answer:

288

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much of the desk each person can finish in 1 hour. Paul can finish 1/12 because he finishes the whole thing in 12 hours and Shawn can finish 1/8 because he finishes the whole thing in 8 hours.

Then find a common denominator and add those together to find how much they could do together in 1 hour.

2/24 + 3/24 = 5/24 So they can finish 5/24 of the desk in 1 hour if they work together.

So to finish 24/24 of the desk, they'll need to do 4 hours (20/24 of the desk) and 48 minutes (4/24 of the desk)

It asked for the number of minutes, so multiply 4 by 60 and add 48 to find the total number of minutes. 4*60 = 240 and 240 + 48 = 288

So it will take them 288 minutes to build the desk together.

25 POINTS, I DONT UNDERSTANDDDDDD :C WHAT IS SO MISLEADING ABOUT THIS GRAPH???
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

honestly, the graph look totally fine...

If one ere pressed to find something to complain about it, one could suggest that  you do not know if this was the starting price of the stock or the ending price of the stock each day?... One could also argue that to be a bit more meaningful you might want to know the range of prices during each day...

look up what is called a candle stick graph.. each day looks like a candlestick... the top is the highest value each the bottom the lowest, and there is a line in the candle that  shows the closing price

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First equation = 4x - 8

Second equation = 7x - 35

Seperate the equation with an equal sign to make it an equality equation and solve for X so :

4x - 8 = 7x - 35 (Given)

-3x - 8 = -35 (Subtraction property of equality)

-3x = -27 (Addition property of equality)

x = 9 (Division property of equality)

Solution:

x = 9
