Answer: Option C)1 over 15 minus 1 over x equals 1 over 20
Explanation:
Since, Micah can fill a box with books in 15 minutes.
Therefore, the work done by Micah in one minute= 1/15
Also, Sydney takes the books out puts them on a shelf.
And the times taken by Micah when Sydney is also taking the books outside from the self= 20 minutes
Therefore, the work done by Micah in one minute when Sydney taking books out of the box= 1/20
Let Sydney alone takes x minutes to take books outsides the shelf.
Then, work done by Sydney in one minute=1/x
Thus, the work done by Sydney( by taking books out of the box)= the work done by Micah - work done by Micah and Sydney simultaneously= 1/15-1/20
⇒1/x=1/15-1/20
⇒1/15-1/20=1/x
⇒1/15-1/x=1/20 is the required expression.
Therefore, Option C is correct.
Answer:
Problem 1. <em>(19/2)b + 15</em>
Problem 2. <em>3/16</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Question number 1
5/8 (16b+24) -1/2b =
= (5/8) * (16/1) * b + (5/8) * 24 - (1/2)b
= 10b + 15 - (1/2)b
= (20/2)b - (1/2)b + 15
= (19/2)b + 15
Question number 2
3/4 (16/64 + 12a) -9a =
= (3/4) * (16/64) + (3/4) * 12a - 9a
= (3 * 16)(4 * 64) + (3/4) * (12/1) * a - 9a
= (3 * 1)(4 * 4) + (3 * 12)/(4 * 1) * a - 9a
= 3/16 + (3 * 3)/(1 * 1) * a - 9a
= 3/16 + 9a - 9a
= 3/16
Four $5 bills and two $1 bills
In total it’s six bills
5(4)=20 and 1(2)=2
20+2=22
