225-275 and then you just have to simplify which turns out to be 9-11 minutes so for every 9 minutes Sylvia works Paul works 11

Answer: 9 / 11

That is approximately 0.82


Explanation:

The ratio of two quantities x and y is x divided by y, i.e. the quotient x / y.

So, the ratio of Sylia's work time to Paul's work time is:

Sylvia's work time
---------------------------
Paul's work time

Given that you have the times in mixed units, hours and minutes, you must convert to one of the, either hours or minutes.

If you choose to work with hours, this is the work:

1) Silvia's time: 3 hours and 45 minutes = 3 hours + 45 / 60 hours = 3hours + 0.75 hours = 3.75 hours

2) Paul's work time: 4 hours and 35 minutes = 4 hours + 35/60 hours = 4 hours + 7/12 hours = (48+7)/12 = 55/12 hours ≈ 4.58 hours

3) Ratio:

Sylvia's work time             3.75 hours            3.75*12         45          9
------------------------- =      --------------------- = ---------------- =  -------- =   -----
Paul's work time               (55/12) hours            55              55         11

≈ 0.82

You can calculate the ratio using minutes and shall obtain the same result. Look:

1) 3 hours + 45 minutes = 3 * 60  minutes + 45 minutes = 180 minutes + 45 minutes = 225 minutes

2) 4 hours + 35 minutes = 4*60 minutes + 35 minutes = 240 minutes + 35 minutes = 275 minutes

3)

225 minutes          9
----------------- =     ------, which is the same result obtained above.
275 minutes         11

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum values of f on the given interval. f(x) = ln(x2 + 5x + 12), [−3, 1]
Bezzdna [24]
A graphing calculator shows the minimum to be located at the vertex of the quadratic, x = -2.5, and the maximum to be located at the right end of the interval.

The absolute maximum value of f(x) is ln(18) ≈ 2.89037.
The absolute minimum value of f(x) is ln(5.75) ≈ 1.74920.

What is the answer to this solution. -7r−4≥ 4r+2
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The solution is:

-7r-4\ge \:\:4r+2\quad \::\quad \:\begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:r\le \:\:-\frac{6}{11}\:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Decimal:}&\:r\le \:\:-0.54545\dots \:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:(-\infty \:\:,\:-\frac{6}{11}]\end{bmatrix}

Please check the attached line graph below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

-7r-4\ge \:4r+2

Add 4 to both sides

-7r-4+4\ge \:4r+2+4

Simplify

-7r\ge \:4r+6

Subtract 4r from both sides

-7r-4r\ge \:4r+6-4r

Simplify

-11r\ge \:6

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverses the inequality)

\left(-11r\right)\left(-1\right)\le \:6\left(-1\right)

Simplify

11r\le \:-6

Divide both sides by 11

\frac{11r}{11}\le \frac{-6}{11}

Simplify

r\le \:-\frac{6}{11}

Therefore, the solution is:

-7r-4\ge \:\:4r+2\quad \::\quad \:\begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:r\le \:\:-\frac{6}{11}\:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Decimal:}&\:r\le \:\:-0.54545\dots \:\\ \:\:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:(-\infty \:\:,\:-\frac{6}{11}]\end{bmatrix}

Please check the attached line graph below.
