Mario can paint a house alone in 3 days. ben can paint the same house alone in 5 days. how long would it take them to paint the

house if they worked together?
1. what is the rate of work per day of ben?

2. what part of the work can ben paint in a day?

(to write th equation in a work problem, follow the pattern below.)

Part of work of mario + part of work of ben = 1

3. write the equation of the problem.__________

4. solve for the value of t then write it to the nearest whole number.______

5. state the conclusion.______

The combined time taken if Mario and Ben work together will be 1.875 days.

<u>Time taken</u>:

  • Mario alone = 3 days
  • Ben alone = 5 days

<u>Work rate</u> :

  • Rate = 1 / time taken
  • Mario's rate = 1 / 3
  • Ben's rate = 1/5

<u>Their combined rate can be written thus</u> :

  • Mario's rate + Ben's rate = combined rate
  • 1/3 + 1/5 = 8/15

<u>Time taken if they work together</u> :

  • Reciprocal of combined work rate
  • Combined time taken = 1 ÷ 8/15 = 15/8 = 1.875 days

Therefore, the time taken of they work together is 1.875 days

Soft-drink cans are filled by an automated filling machine. The mean fill volume is 12.1 fluid ounces, and the standard deviatio
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Probability is 0.97725

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean volume =12.1 ounces  ,standard deviation=0.05

  and 10 volumes are selected i.e no of observation or samples.

To find : calculate probability for fluid  less than the 12 ounces.i.e P(X<12) with normal distribution probability .

Solution:

Given that data is independent normal random variables , which depends upon mean ,variance and the Standard Z-score .

Hence we have ,

Mean=12.1

Variance =square of (standard deviation).

Normal distribution is given by ,

N(mean,variance)

As there are 10 cans with mean 12.1 and variance=(0.05)^2=0.025.

Normal distribution probability is given by sum of independent normal random variables.

Using the notation as P(X-Y>0)

I.e. P(X>Y)

finding the probability of X greater than Y i.e.(12.1>12) ounces .

with same standard deviation we get,

X-Y    ⇒N(12.1-12,0.0025)⇒N(0.1,0.0025).

=P(X-Y)

=P(X-Y>0)

=P(Z>\frac{(0-0.1)}{\sqrt{0.0025} })

=P(Z>-2)

=P(Z<2).

=0.97725.

Using the Z- table refer the normal probability Z-table.
