Step-by-step explanation:

\underline{\underline{\sf{➤\:\:Solution}}}

\sf \dashrightarrow \:  \dfrac{ \left(\left(12 \right)^{ - 1}  + \left(13 \right)^{ - 1}  \right) }{\left( \dfrac{1}{5}\right) ^{ - 2}  \times\left( \left( \dfrac{1}{5}  \right) ^{ - 1}  +\left( \dfrac{1}{8}  \right) ^{ - 1}  \right) ^{ - 1}}

\sf \dashrightarrow \:  \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{1}{12}  + \dfrac{1}{13} \right) }{\left( \dfrac{5}{1}\right) ^{ 2}  \times\left( \dfrac{5}{1}  + \dfrac{8}{1}   \right) ^{ - 1}}

  • LCM of 12 and 13 is 156

\sf \dashrightarrow \:  \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{1 \times 13 = 13}{12 \times 13 = 156}  + \dfrac{1 \times 12 = 12}{13 \times 12 = 156} \right) }{\ \dfrac{25}{1} \times\left( \dfrac{5 + 8}{1}    \right) ^{ - 1}}

\sf \dashrightarrow \:  \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{13}{156}  + \dfrac{12}{156} \right) }{\ \dfrac{25}{1} \times\left( \dfrac{13}{1}    \right) ^{ - 1}}

\sf \dashrightarrow \:  \dfrac{ \left(\dfrac{13 + 12}{156}  \right) }{\ \dfrac{25}{1} \times\dfrac{1}{13} }

\sf \dashrightarrow \:    \dfrac{25}{156} \div    \dfrac{25}{13}

\sf \dashrightarrow \:    \dfrac{ \cancel{25}}{156}  \times    \dfrac{13}{ \cancel{25} }

\sf \dashrightarrow \:     \dfrac{13}{156}

\sf \dashrightarrow \:     \dfrac{1}{12}

\sf \dashrightarrow \:    Answer =   \underline{\boxed{ \sf{ \dfrac{1}{12} }}}

\sf \: 1^{st} \: Law = \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n} \bigg)^{a} \times \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n} \bigg)^{b} = \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n} \bigg)^{a + b}

\sf 2^{nd} \: Law =

\sf Case : (i) \: if \: a > b \: then, \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n}\bigg) ^{a} \div \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n}\bigg)^{b} = \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n}\bigg)^{a - b}

\sf Case : (ii) \: if \: a < b \: then, \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n}\bigg) ^{a} \div \bigg( \dfrac{m}{n}\bigg)^{b} = \dfrac{1}{\bigg( \dfrac{m}{n}\bigg)^{b - a}}

elise takes 12 minutes to rake up and bag a pile of leaves her sister katherine takes twice as long, how many minutes would it t
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

80 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate and Time are inverses of each other

First,

Elise Time = 12

and

Katherine Time = 2 * 12 = 24

Their rates would be (inverses):

Elise Rate = 1/12

Katherine Rate = 1/24

Together their rate is 1/12 + 1/24 = 3/24

Now, the inverse of this rate would be the time it takes to complete 1 bag together, that is:

(3/24) ^ -1 = 24/3 = 8 minutes

So, 10 bags would take them:

8 * 10 = 80 minutes
