Using the together rate, it is found that it would take them 16 hours to sew 12 dresses.

<h3>What is the together rate?</h3>

The together rate is the <u>sum of each separate rate</u>.

In this problem, we have that:

  • Vera's rate is of 1/2.
  • Ivy's rate is of 1/4.

Hence, the together rate is the time it would take them to produce one dress working together, and is given by:

\frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4}

\frac{1}{x} = \frac{2 + 1}{4}

3x = 4

x = \frac{4}{3}

Then one dress takes \frac{4}{3} of an hour, and the time for twelve dresses is:

t = 12 \times \frac{4}{3} = 4(4) = 16

It would take them 16 hours to sew 12 dresses.

To learn more about the together rate, you can take a look at brainly.com/question/25159431

What is the slope of this skateboard ramp if it rises 1.2 meters above the ground and runs 4 meters horizontally at the base?
Nesterboy [21]
By definition, the slope is the inclination of a line in relation to the horizontal. It can be expressed in degrees, ratios and even in percent. Therefore, you can calculate it by applying the following formula:
 
 P%=(H/L)x100
 
 P% is the slope expressed in percent.
 H is the height (H=1.2 meters).
 L is the length (L=4 meters).
 
 When you substitute these values into the formula P%=(H/L)x100, you obtain the slope of the skateboard ramp:
 
 P%=(H/L)x100
 P%=(1.2 meter/4 meters)x100
 P%=0.30x100
 P%=30%

Pavel [41]

Answer:

14 cm, 18 cm, 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 9x + 10x = 26x

equation: 26x = 52

divide each side by 26: x = 2

7 * 2 = 14

9 * 2 = 18

10 * 2 = 20

check if answer is right: 14 + 20 + 18 = 52

I hope this helped, please mark Brainliest thank you so much!!
