Answer:
- 3 and 69/70
Step-by-step explanation:
3 ÷ 5(6 × 7) - 4
3 ÷ 5(40) - 4
3 ÷ 210 - 4
1/70 ÷ 4
- 3 and 69/70
Wilda can do the job in 4 hours ... she does 1/4 (or 0.25) of it each hour.
Karla can do it in 5 hours ... she does 1/5 (or 0.2) of it each hour.
Wilda worked alone for 1 hour ... 0.25 of the job was done before her helper
arrived. So only 0.75 of the job remained to be done together.
Working together, they accomplish (0.25 + 0.2) = 0.45 of the job in 1 hour.
How many times do they need to do 0.45 of the job in order to finish
the 0.75 of it that remains ? That's the number of hours it will take them,
working together.
0.75 / 0.45 = <em>1 and 2/3</em>
After Wilda worked alone for 1 hour and Karla came along to join her, it will
take them another <em>1 hour and 40 minutes</em> to finish the job and go for a swim.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 4y = 13 (1)
2x + y = 5 (2)
——————
3x - 4y = 13
4(2x + y = 5) (2) times 4
——————-
3x - 4y = 13
8x + 4y = 20
——————-
11x = 33
x = 33/11
x = 3
Plug x = 3 in (2):
2(3) + y = 5
6 + y = 5
y = 5-6
y = -1
Thus, x = 3 and y = -1
