It would take both Carl and Joseph 0.1 hours to complete the work.

<h3>Equation</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let t represent the amount of time in hours it would take them to finish the work.

For Carl, time = 15 minutes = 0.25 hr

For Joseph, time = 10 minutes = 0.167 hr

Hence:

[(1/0.25) + (1/0.167)]t = 1

t = 0.1 hr

It would take both Carl and Joseph 0.1 hours to complete the work.

For this problem, we can say that corresponding angles are congruent, or the same, this also means that their angle measures have to be the same. Then, our equations for our angles will be vertical angles, which means that they must equal each other. So we would then write our equation as 3x+20=4x+10 or 4x+10=3x+20. Then, to combine like terms, we will subtract 3x from both sides, resulting in x+10=20. Then we will subtract 10 from both sides, resulting in x=10.

There are two numbers. The first number is 4/9 of the second number. If the difference between the two numbers is 375, find the
erica [24]
X and y
x=4/9 times y

y is bigger so
y-x=375
x=4/9y
y-4/9y=375
5/9y=375
times both sides by 9/5
y=675

the 2nd number is 675
