Answer:

40/3 hrs = 13.3 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me = K , my brother = P

K digs a hole in 8 hrs

K in 1 hr digs 1/8 of a hole

K + P dig a hole in 5 hrs

K + P in 1 hr dig 1/5

Let the portion of the hole Plan digs in 1 hr be x

1/8 + x = 1/5

x = 3/40

3/40 of the hole is dug by P in 1 hr

1 of the hole is dug by P in 40/3 hrs

= 40/3 hrs

=13.3 hrs

a piece of string is 3 yards long. How many 1 and a quarter yard long pieces can Julie cut from the string?
Georgia [21]
This question is actually a lot simpler than it seems

for a quarter think about money - a quarter is 25 cents or 1/4 of a dollar - so 1 and a quarter yard in decimal form is equivalent to 1.25

now you need to find how many 1 and a quarter yards are in 3 yards - to do this you simply divide 3 by 1.25

3/1.25 = 2.4

so julie can cut 2.4 1 and a quarter long pieces from the string

if you have any questions about how i answered this question please let me know:)

A large pizza at Little Italy costs $7.00 plus $0.80 for each topping. The cost of a large cheese pizza at Spinato's is $7.60 pl
laiz [17]
At the start you will start with $7 and $7.60 there is a simple way and a more complex process. The simple way is using the formula of y=mx+b so y=.8x+7 and the other way is just too add .8 to 7 and .7 to 7.6 and keep doing that till you get the answer. The answer is 7, seven topping have to be added to make them the same price.
