If Ann can build the model in 3 hours, then in 1 hour she gets 1/3 of it done. Likewise, if Sam can build the model in 6 hours, then in 1 hour he gets 1/6 of it done. We are looking to find how long it takes when they combine their efforts, so we will add the two together and set it equal to 1/x, x being the number of hours it takes for both of them to get the whole job done. The equation then looks like this:
. You will have to find the common denominator to add those fractions, and once you do, cross multiply to solve for x.
If they're travelling towards each other;
Effective speed = 75+55 = 130
Distance = 338m
Time= distance/ speed
T= 338/130
T= 2.6 hrs
Answer:
angle a is 116 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
ok so first we have to make everything equal to 180 because every triangle is 180 degrees so it would be written like this:
(14x + 4) + (5x - 1) + (2x + 9) = 180
Then, we solve for x and x equals 8
After this we plug 8 back into the angle so it would be written like this:
14(8) + 4
This equals 116 degrees.
