First, subtract 2/3 from both sides and you get
Then multiply both sides by 6/5 and you get
Answer:
Maria: (50 bulbs)/(2 hours) = 25 bulbs/hour
Lois: (45 bulbs)/(3 hours) = 15 bulbs/hour
Together: 25 + 15 = 40 bulbs/hour
(150 bulbs)/(40 bulbs per hour) = 3 3/4 hours
(3/4 hours)(60 minutes/hour) = 45 minutes
Total time: 3 hours 45 minutes
Answer:
75
Step-by-step explanation:
75m/hr
Just remember that something outside the parentheses applies to everything inside.
Examples:
3 times (x + 2) . . . . . means . . . . . 3 times 'x' <u>plus</u> 3 times 2
a (b + c) . . . . . means . . . . . ab <u>plus</u> ac
4 (w + x + y + 2) . . . means . . . 4w + 4x + 4y + 8
When somebody gives you an equation that has parentheses in it,
the first thing you're always supposed to do is get rid of them.
With the examples I just gave you, you know how to do that now.
64 + 43 = 107
107 - 43 = 64
107 - 64 = 43
