This is esay to do when you realize the the speed of mowing is addtive. This is if John mows at 1 lawn / (2/3) hour and Gerge mows at 1 lawn / 1hour, the total speed of mowing is:
1 / (2/3) + 1 = 3/2 + 1 = 5/2
=> 5/2 of lawn per hour
Now, the time is calcualted as the amount of lawn divided by the speed:
1 lawn / (5/2 lawn/hour) = 2/5 hour.
Answer: 2/5 of an hour.
Answer:
The actual area of the town is 14 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you know that the scale is 1 inch:4 miles and that the map shows a town with an area of 3.5 inches, you can expressed this as follows:
Scale: 1 inch:4 miles
map area: 3.5 inches
If the actual area is x, you can say that:
3.5:x=1:4
This would be:
![\frac{3.5}{x}=\frac{1}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B3.5%7D%7Bx%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D)
Now, you can solve for x:
x=(3.5*4)/1
x=14
According to this, the answer is that the actual area of the town is 14 miles.
Rearranging y = 8x -4y = 12 in the y = mx + b form gives y = 2x - 3
y = 2x - 3
y = mx - 6 (already in y = mx + b form)

Parallel lines have the same slope.
m = 2
Note that the two lines have the different y-intercepts and are not the same line.
