Answer:

  72 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the rates of work in rooms per hour is ...

  Jill's rate + Jim's rate

  = (1/2 room/hour) +(1/3 room/hour) = (3/6 +2/6 room/hour) = 5/6 room/hour

__

Then the combined rate in hours per room is ...

  1/(5/6 room/hour) = 6/5 hours/room = (6/5 hours/room)(60 minutes/hour)

  = 72 minutes per room

Jill and Jim can paint the room in 72 minutes when they work together.

A

\sqrt[3]{27} = 3

Since 3 × 3 × 3 = 27

B

\sqrt{25} = ± 5

Since 5 × 5 = 25 and - 5 × - 5 = 25

C

\sqrt{81} = ± 9

Since 9 × 9 = 81 and - 9 × - 9 = 81

D

\sqrt[3]{1} = 1

Since 1 × 1 × 1 = 1

Gas mileage is the number of miles you can drive on a gallon of gasoline. A test of a new car results in 350 miles on 20 gallons
Evgen [1.6K]
Answer=875miles      17.5miles per gallon

 350miles     x miles
________=_________
20gallons    50gallons

cross multiply
20x=17500
divide both sides by 20
x=875

875 miles can be traveled with 50 gallons of gas.

To find gas milage, which is essentially miles per gallon, simply divide the number of miles by the number of gallons

350miles   20gallons

350/20=17.5 miles per gallon

One number is 8 more than another number, and their sum is 16. What are the 2 numbers?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

x = 12

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 16

x - y = 8

y + 8 = x

Replace x with y + 8 in the new equation

8 + 2y = 16 ----> we can minus 8 on both sides

2y = 8 -----> divide both sides by 2

y = 4

Now for the x value

x + 4 = 16 ----> minus 4 on both sides

x = 12
