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.
The answer is 1A definitely
Answer:
One Twelfth (1/12) of a Mile per Day
Step-by-step explanation:
If Eliza has 3 days to build this fence, you can divide the total length of the fence (1/4 mile) into 3 sperate sections for each day. Dividing 1/4 by 3 gets you. 1/12 of a mile will be built each day.
Answer:
- Library 2 charges more for each book loaned.
- Library 1 has a cheaper subscription fee.
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the table, we can write the equation for the cost of borrowing from Library 2 using the two-point form of the equation of a line:
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
for (x1, y1) = (2, 15.50) and (x2, y2) = (8, 26) this equation becomes ...
y = (26 -15.50)/(8 -2)(x -2) +15.50 . . . . . fill in the values
y = (10.50/6)(x -2) +15.50 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify a bit
y = 1.75x -3.50 +15.50 . . . . . . simplify more
In the above, we have x = number of books; y = cost. We can use "n" and "C" for those, respectively, as in the equation for Library 1. Then the monthly cost for Library 2 is ...
C = 12 + 1.75n . . . . . . . arranged to the same form as for Library 1
_____
Now, we can answer the questions.
Library 2 charges more for each book loaned. (1.75 vs 1.50 for Library 1)
Library 1 has a cheaper subscription fee. (10 vs 12 for Library 2)
_____
The numbers in the cost equations are ...
C = (subscription fee) + (cost per book loaned)·n
