Answer: it will take a combined rate of 2.67 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Father can do the job on the farm in 6 hours. This means that the father's unit rate of working will be 1/6
The older son can do it in 8 hours. This means that the older son's rate of working will be 1/8
The younger son can do same job in 12 hours. This means that the younger son's working rate is 1/12
When they work together, they will be working simultaneously. It means that their unit rates are additive. The combined unit rates will be
1/6 + 1/8 + 1/12 = (20 + 15 + 10)/120
45/120
Assuming it takes t hours for them to complete the work while doing it together. Their combined unit rate will be 1/t
45/120 = 1/t
45t = 120
t = 120/45 = 2.67 hours
Answer:
130
Step-by-step explanation:
I don' know my explanation.
Okie doke. So, we are rounding this number to the nearest thousandths place, which is three digits behind the decimal. The rules for rounding are if the number is 5 or more in the digit behind it, the number goes up. If it is 4 or less, the number goes back. In other words, we depend on the digit right of the digit we are rounding to in order to see what we do. The number we are rounding is 1.49882. The 8 is in the thousandths place and the 8 is to the right of that, which is the ten thousandths place. Because 8 is greater than 5, the number rounds up. So the number rounded to the nearest thousandth is 1.500.
To simplify by distribution we proceed as follows;
7a(3b-2c+4)
=7a*3b-2c*7a+4*7a
=21ab-14cb+28a
the answer is:
21ab-14cb+28a
