Answer: Kim can mow the greens alone in 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let K be the rate Kim mows the greens, and S the rate for Shayla.  The rates K and S will be in greens/hour.

We know they can mow 1 green in 4 hours.  We can state this as a sum of their rates times the 4 hours equals one green:

(4 hours)*(K + S) = 1 green

We are told that K = 2S [Kim is twice as fast as Shayla]

Subsititute:

(4 hours)*(K + S) = 1 green

(4 hours)*(2S + S) = 1 green

4*(2S + S) = 1 green

12S = 1 green

Shalya's rate is 1 green/12 hours

Kim is twice as fast:  K = 2S

Kim's rate is 1 green/6 hours.

Simplify y-2/3/y+1/5
liberstina [14]

Answer:

\frac{15y-10}{15y-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

First at all, we need to use a=\frac{a}{1} to convert this expression into a fraction, like:

y-\frac{2}{3} to convert into \frac{y}{1} -\frac{2}{3}.

Expand the fraction to get the least common denominator, like

\frac{3y}{3*1}-\frac{2}{3}

Write all numerators above the common denominator, like this:

\frac{3y-2}{3}

The bottom one used the same way to became simplest form, like this:

y+\frac{1}{5}

\frac{y}{1} +\frac{1}{5}

\frac{5y}{5*1}+\frac{1}{5}

\frac{5y+1}{5}

And it became like this:

\frac{3y-2}{3}/\frac{5y+1}{5}

Now, we are going to simplify this complex fraction. We can use cross- multiply method to simplify this fraction.

\frac{3y-2}{3}*\frac{5y+1}{5}

3y-2(5) and 5y-1(3)

and it will becomes like this in function form:

\frac{3y-2(5)}{5y+1(3)}

Then, we should distribute 5 through the parenthesis

\frac{15y-10}{5y+1(3)}

\frac{15y-10}{15y+3}

And.... Here we go. That is the answer.
