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.

The legth of a rectangle is the same as the legth of each side of a square. The legth rectangle is 4 cm more than 3 times the wi
ankoles [38]

Let, length and breadth of rectangle is L and B respectively.

It is given that :

The length rectangle is 4 cm more than 3 times the width of the rectangle.

L = 3B + 4  ......1 )

Also, area of square = area of the rectangle + 66

L² = LB + 66

Putting value of L from

L² = ( 3B + 4 )( B ) + 66

L² = 3B²  + 4B + 66

( 3B + 4 )² = 3B²  + 4B + 66

9B² + 16 + 24B = 3B²  + 4B + 66

6B² + 20B - 50 = 0

3B² + 10B - 25 = 0

3B² + 15B - 5B -25 = 0

3B( B + 5 ) -5( B + 5 ) = 0

B = 5/3 units

L = 3( 5/3 ) + 4

L = 5 + 4 = 9 units

Hence, this is the required solution.

geniusboy [140]
(\sqrt[5]{x^{7}})^{3}=(x^{\frac{7}{5}})^{3}=x^{\frac{7\cdot3}{5}}=x^{\frac{21}{5}}

The root is equivalent to a fractional power with that number as the denominator. Otherwise, the rules of exponents apply.
