To get the value of DK we use proportionality:
AK/EK=BK/KD
thus plugging the values we get:
14/17=7/KD
getting the reciprocal of getting both sides we have:

17/14=KD/7
thus
KD=17/14×7
KD=8.5
thus

Robert can paint a room in 6 hours. Julio can paint a room in 8 hours.how long will it take for the two of them to paint a room

Llana [10]

Roberto paints 1/6 of a room in 1 hour.
Julio paints1/8 of a room in 1 hour.

Working together, they paint (1/6 + 1/8) = (4/24 + 3/24) = 7/24 room per hour.

The reciprocal unit rate is 24/7 hour per room = 3-3/7 hours per room.

The width of a rectangle measures (2.5u+9.8)(2.5u+9.8) centimeters, and its length measures (1.5u+3.9)(1.5u+3.9) centimeters. Wh

icang [17]

Solution,

We have,

Width of rectangle, b = (2.5u+9.8) cm

Length of rectangle, l = (1.5u+3.9) cm

We need to find the expression for the perimeter of the rectangle. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

Perimeter = 2(l+b)

P = 2[(2.5u+9.8)+(1.5u+3.9)]

Collecting like terms

P = 2[(2.5u+1.5u)+(9.8+3.9)]

P=2(4u+13.7)

⇒ P = 8u+27.4

So, the expression for the perimeter of the rectangle is (8u+27.4) cm.
