Answer: 0.4 : 6 = 1 : 15

Step-by-step explanation: Change values to whole numbers.

Convert any decimal numbers to integers by multiplying both sides by 101 = 10 to eliminate all, 1, decimal places.

We then have:

0.4 : 6 = 4 : 60

Try to reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).

The GCF of 4 and 60 is 4

Divide both terms by the GCF, 4:

4 ÷ 4 = 1

60 ÷ 4 = 15

The ratio 4 : 60 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 4 :

4 : 60 = 1 : 15

Therefore:

0.4 : 6 = 1 : 15

Kate and Jean paint a house together in 6 days. If they work alone, Kate takes 5 fewer days than Jean would take to do the same

navik [9.2K]

X = number of days it would take Kate to paint the house by herself. .
x+5 = number of days it would take Jean to paint the house by herself.
Together, they paint the house in 6 days: 
1/x + 1/(x+5) = 1/6 
Multiply both sides by 6x(x+5) 
6(x+5) + 6x = x(x+5) 
12x + 30 = x^2 + 5x 
x^2 − 7x − 30 = 0
therefore the answer is A.

Answer:

Inverse of f exists.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph attached,

If we do the horizontal line test for the function graphed,

We find the function as one to one function.

In other words for every input value (x-value) there is a different output value.
