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.

HELP ME Using the following equation, complete the square and find the center and radius of the circle:
IrinaK [193]

Answer: (-2,3), r=5\ \text{units}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

the equation is x^2+y^2+4x-6y-12=0

completing the square

\Rightarrow (x^2+2\times 2\times x+4-4)+(y^2-2\times3\times y+9-9)-12=0\\\Rightarrow (x^2+2\times 2\times x+4)+(y^2-2\times3\times y+9)-12-4-9=0\\\Rightarrow (x+2)^2+(y-3)^2=25\\\Rightarrow (x+2)^2+(y-3)^2=5^2\\\Rightarrow (x-(-2))^2+(y-3)^2=5^2

Thus, the center of the circle is (-2,3) and radius is r=5\ \text{units}

Locate the absolute extrema of the function on the closed interval:<br> y = 3x^(2/3) - 2x, [-1, 1]
Alecsey [184]
To get the extrema, derive the function.
You get y' = 2x^-1/3 - 2.
Set this equal to zero, and you get x=0 as the location of a critical point.
Since you are on a closed interval [-1, 1], those points can also have an extrema.
Your min is right, but the max isn't at (1,1). At x=-1, you get y=5 (y = 3(-1)^2/3 -2(-1); (-1)^2/3 = 1, not -1).
Thus, the maximum is at (-1, 5).
