Answer:

it will take A 4.5 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Say both teams are of same man power, and here we have two teams

A and B

B takes 13 hours to finish a task.

A&B takes 8.5 hours to finish same tasks

Hence it will take A 13-8.5=4.5 hours to complete the task

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Team a wash the windows = x hours

Team B = 13 hours

Team a + Team b = 8.5 hours

Assuming the time taken for team a amd team b be a and b respectively.

To wash 13 windows, Team a will do so in x hours = x × 13

To wash x number of windows, Team b will do so in x hours = x × 13

a + b = 8.5 hours

So in 13x hours, the two teams can wash 13 + x windows. To paint just a window, they'll need 1/(13 + x) hours,

8.5 = 13x/(x + 13)

4.5x = 110.5

Solving for x,

110.5/4.5 = x

x = 24.56 hours

Team a will require 24.56 hours to do the work alone.

How old am I if 250 reduced by 5 times my age is 50?
Korolek [52]
250 - 5(x) = 50

250 (-250) - 5x = 50 (-250)

-5x = -200

-5x/-5 = -200/-5

x = 40

hope this helps

you are 40 years old!

Angela decides to recycle a large oatmeal container by using it to hold a friends birthday gift. Then she wraps the container in
Deffense [45]

Answer:

D. 135.37 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the gift paper consists of two circles and a square.

Thus, we will need to find the area of the circles and the square.

Now, as the diameter of the circle = 4 inches

So, the radius of the circle = \frac{4}{2} = 2 inches

Since, the area of a circle = \pi r^{2}

This implies that area of the two circles = 2\times \pi r^{2}

i.e. Area of the circles =  2\times \pi 2^{2}

i.e. Area of the circles =  8\pi

i.e. Area of the two circles = 25.133 in²

Further, one side of the square = 10.5 inches

Thus, the area of the square = side^{2}

i.e. Area of the square = 10.5^{2}

i.e. Area of the square = 110.25 in²

So, the overall area of the gift paper = 25.133 + 110.25 = 135.37 in².

Hence, the amount of paper used by Angela is 135.37 in².

Tell whether the lines through the given points are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

The Slope of Line 1 is ->  -\frac{2}{9}

The Slope of Line 2 is -> -\frac{9}{2}

These two lines are - >  Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of line one, you follow these steps:

First Coordinate 10 -> x1, 5 -> y1

Second Coordinate -8 -> x2, 9 -> y2

Then insert the assigned values into this equation:  \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} -> \frac{9-5}{-8-10} which equals \frac{4}{-18} which simplifies to -\frac{2}{9}

Then do the same process to find the slop of line 2:

First Coord: 2 -> x1, -4 -> y1

Second Coord: 11 -> x2, -6 -> y2

Then insert the values into this equation: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  ->\frac{11-2}{-6-(-4)} which equals \frac{9}{-2}.

We know the lines are perpendicular by:

a. Typing the equations of the lines into a graphing calculator and observing the graph

b. Looking at the slopes. By looking at the slopes, we see that the slope of line 1 is the reciprocal of line 2, and vice versa. Since reciprocal slopes indicate perpendicular lines, the lines 1 and 2 are perpendicular to each other.

Hope this helps!
