Answer:

  • 59/20 days or 2.95  days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Carl do the job in c days, Anne- in a, and Bob in b days

Then the portion of job they can do is 1/c, 1/a and 1/b

<u>As per given we have below equations:</u>

  • 1/c + 1/b= 1/6
  • 1/a + 1/b = 1/3
  • 1/a + 1/c = 1/5

<u>Sum of all 3 equations gives us:</u>

  • 2(1/a + 1/b + 1/c) = 1/6 + 1/3 + 1/5
  • 2(1/a + 1/b + 1/c) = 5/30 + 10/30 + 6/30
  • 2(1/a + 1/b + 1/c) = 21/30
  • 2(1/a + 1/b + 1/c) = 7/10
  • 1/a + 1/b + 1/c = 7/20

It means all three together can complete 7/20 of the job in one day

<u>The rest of the job is done by Anne and Bob:</u>

  • 1 - 7/20 = 13/20

<u>As Anne and Bob can do 1/3 of the job in one day, they need time to complete the rest:</u>

  • 13/20:1/3 = 39/20

<u>Add 1 day to this to find overall time:</u>

  • 1 + 39 /20 = 59/20 days or 2.95  days

During a building project, a brick is
taurus [48]

The brick will fall to the ground after 9 secs.

<h3>What are quadratic equations?</h3>

Given the equation for height as a function of time is  h(t) = -16t2 + 1,296

The height of the brick on the ground is h(t) = 0. Substitute h(t) = 0 into the equation as shown:

  • -16t2 + 1,296 = 0

Subtract 1296 from both sides

-16t² + 1,296 - 1296 = 0 - 1296

16t² = 1296

t² = 1296/16

t² = 81

t = 9secs

Hence the brick will fall to the ground after 9 secs.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

36 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is a 3-4-5 right triangle with a scaling factor of 12. No complicated Pythagorean theorem has to be used in this case.

60/12 = 5

48/12 = 4

3 is the only base number remaining.

3(12) =36
