Answer:
<em>6 days</em>
<em></em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time taken by Carpenter working alone =
days
Then time taken by apprentice alone = Twice as that of taken by Carpenter = 2
days
Time taken working together = 2 days
Work done in one day working together = 
Work done in one day by Carpenter working alone = 
Work done in one day by apprentice working alone = 
Work done in one day by Carpenter working alone + Work done in one day by Carpenter working alone =
+
= Work done in one day working together = 

Time taken by Carpenter alone to complete the work = 3 days
Time taken by Apprentice alone to complete the work = 3
2= <em>6 days</em>
12x - 18 - 4x -2
12x - 4x = 8x (yours 12x - 4x = 8)
-18 - 2 = -20 (yours -18 -1 = 17)
answer:
8x - 20
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the Pythagorean theorem:
b^2+3^2=5^2
b^2+9=25
b=sqrt (25-9)
b=sqrt(16)
b=4
=> 4^2+7^2=c^2
16+49=c^2
65=c^2
=>c=sqrt(65)
c = (approximately) 8
