Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If J can paint a room in 3 hours, in 1 hour she gets
of the job done.
If A can paint a room in 4 hours, in 1 hour she gets
of the job done. We need to find out how long it takes them if they paint together. The equation for this is:
where x is the number of hours it takes them to get the job done together. Multiply everything through by 12x to get
4x + 3x = 12 so
7x = 12 and
x = 1.7 hours to get the room painted together.
Whole package weighs 20pounds
1.65 = 5pounds
0.12 = extra pound
3.45 - 1.65 = 1.80 : 0.12 = 15pounds
Adding up 15pounds and the first 5 pounds equal 20 pounds
Answer:
x = 4, y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Equating corresponding coordinates , gives
2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 4
and
3y = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = 3
17.5 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
1st you add 85 and 55 since those to angles are congruent (means similar) to 8x
2nd you get 140 after adding then
3rd since the angles are congruent you just divide the 140 by 8 to get the value of x
