Answer:

Let x equal the amount of time required for the second press to complete the job on its own.

The second press then operates at a rate of 1/x of the job per hour.

The two presses work together at a rate of 1/2 of the job per hour.

And the first press operates at a rate of one-sixth of the job per hour.

As a result, our equation to solve is:

1/6+1/x=1/2 multiply each term by 6x x+6=3x subtract x from each side x-x+6=3x-x group like terms together

2x=6 multiply both sides by 2 x=3 the number of hours required for the second press to finish the job

CK

1/6+1/3=1/2

1/6+2/6=1/2\s3/6=1/2

1/2=1/2\salso\s(1/6)*2=1/3\s(1/3)*2=2/3\s2/3+1/3=1 (Only one job)

1=1

Is the Mandelbrot set locally connected?
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is conjectured that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected. This famous conjecture is known as MLC (for Mandelbrot locally connected). By the work of Adrien Douady and John H. Hubbard, this conjecture would result in a simple abstract "pinched disk" model of the Mandelbrot set. In particular, it would imply the important hyperbolicity conjecture mentioned above.

The work of Jean-Christophe Yoccoz established local connectivity of the Mandelbrot set at all finitely renormalizable parameters; that is, roughly speaking those contained only in finitely many small Mandelbrot copies.[19] Since then, local connectivity has been proved at many other points of {\displaystyle M}M, but the full conjecture is still open.

maria [59]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Equation: 2(7 + 8)

So you have to multiply 2 by 7 which equals 14

Then you multiply 2 by 8 which equals 16

Your equation should now look like this: 14 + 16

Add 14 and 16 together.

Your answer is 30
