Step-by-step explanation:
yes that's true
if a^n=b
then
a^n/n=b^1/n
a=b^1/n
Answer: it will take the faster computer 15 minutes to do the job on its own.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the number of minutes it will take the faster computer to do the job on its own. It means that the rate at which it does the job per minute is 1/t
If it takes the slower computer 30 minutes to do the job on its own. It means that the rate at which it does the job on its own per minute is 1/30
By working together, they would work simultaneously and their individual rates are additive. Working together it takes two computers 10 minutes to send out a company's email. It means that the rate at which both computers work together per minute is 1/10 Therefore,
1/t + 1/30 = 1/10
Cross multiplying by 30x, it becomes
3x = x + 30
3x - x = 30
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15 minutes
The answer to this question is 7
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let, x, represent the value of Dave's markers. You then make the equation (5x+x=18) because both markers combined is 18 and Sheila has 5 times the markers of Dave so her value would represent 5x. Solving the equation would get you x=3 BUT THAT IS THE VALUE OF DAVE'S MARKERS! The question asks for Sheila's with is 5*3. So the answer is 15 markers.
