If Ann can build the model in 3 hours, then in 1 hour she gets 1/3 of it done. Likewise, if Sam can build the model in 6 hours, then in 1 hour he gets 1/6 of it done. We are looking to find how long it takes when they combine their efforts, so we will add the two together and set it equal to 1/x, x being the number of hours it takes for both of them to get the whole job done. The equation then looks like this:
. You will have to find the common denominator to add those fractions, and once you do, cross multiply to solve for x.
Answer:
125x³ − 150x²y + 60xy² − 8y³
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x − 2y)³
₃C₀ (5x)³ (-2y)⁰ + ₃C₁ (5x)² (-2y)¹ + ₃C₂ (5x)¹ (-2y)² + ₃C₃ (5x)⁰ (-2y)³
(1) (125x³) (1) + (3) (25x²) (-2y) + (3) (5x) (4y²) + (1) (1) (-8y³)
125x³ − 150x²y + 60xy² − 8y³
