Answer:

together rate = 1/20 min/job

one comp. rate = 1/(x-9) min/job

2nd comp. rate = 1/x min/job

-------------------------------

Equation:

rate + rate = together rate

1/x + 1/(x-9) = 1/20

---

20(x-9) + 20x = x(x-9)

40x-9*20 = x^2-9x

---

x^2-49x + 180 = 0

Factor:

(x-45)(x-4) = 0

Realistic solution since 4-9 is negative:

x = 45 minutes

then

x-9 = 36 minutes (faster computer time to do the job)

Find the error american car produce 5,650,000 cars each year.In a report,ben wrote that americans made 6,550,000 cars.What mista
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The error Ben made was writing down 6,550,000 cars rather than 5,650,000 cars in the report.

He can fix it by correcting the wrong numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

American car produce 5,650,000 cars each year.

When writing a report Ben wrote down that americans produce 6,550,000 cars every year

Therefore the error Ben made in the report was that he mixed the numbers, he ought to have written 5 and 6 as the initial two numbers but rather he wrote the first number as 6 and the second number as 5.

Ben can fix his mistake by correcting the numbers and writing down the correct initial two numbers which are 6 and 5.

Hence, doing this will give him the correct number of cars which is 5,650,000 cars.
