It normally takes Julius 2 hours to mow the yard, but because he is in a hurry he asks his son, Marcos, to help him. If just his son was doing the yard work it would take him 3 hours. How long will it take if both are working together? Use the formula 1/T_1 +1/T_2 =1/T_both where T_1 is the time required for Julius to complete the job alone, T_2 is the time required for Marcos to complete the job alone, and T_both is the time required to complete the job when they both work together. Answer as a decimal, rounded to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 1.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: : Time taken by Julius to complete the job alone: [tex]T_1=2\text{ hours}[/tex]

Time taken by Marcos to complete the job alone : [tex]T_2=3\text{ hours}[/tex]

Let the time taken by both to complete the job together = T

[tex]\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{1}{T_1}+\dfrac{1}{T_2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac13\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{3+2}{2\times3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{5}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ T=\dfrac{6}{5}=1.2[/tex]

Hence, it will take 1.2 hours to complete the job by working together.

Can someone please explain to me how to work this out?

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

the way i work it out is if you take the product and power it to the third you can easily find out which answer is correct. another way, if you don't have a calculator is to look at the last digit in the number in the square root sign.

For example, 3 square root 64 equals 8. you would look at the 4 and try to find 3 numbers that end in 4 OR is divisible three times by the number. 64 is exactly divisible by 4 only 3 times so you know that it can't be 8.

M = 2/3, B = -5
M = -5, b = 3/2
M = 2, b = -6
M = -5, b= 2

Answers

Answer: m = 3/2, b = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

When we input these values into slope-intercept form y = mx + b, then we get y = 3/2x -5. When trying out different x values, we get the same points that are on the line such as (2, -2) also the y-intercept is -5, so we know it is a true statement and that the slope 3/2 and y-intercept -5 are the only correct answers for this line.

p = 2 because you bought 2 pop sockets.

y = 2 because each pop socket costs 2 dollars.

There is no c because you don't know the number of phone cases you bought.

Now, we have to substitute the values into the equation:

24 = 4.5x + 2(2)

24 = 4.5x + 4

4.5x + 4 = 24       <--- This is your answer

First things first we need to get rid of the variables so we subtract -12x from one side to the other.

Now we have 1= -10

In this case, 1 is not equal to -10 so we get no solutions!

Name the line of reflection used to map each pre-image to its image.
Please help

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

9). When pre-image KLMN is a reflected across x = -2, we get image K'L'M'N'.

    Therefore, line of reflection will be x = -2

10). In this picture line of reflection which passes through origin (0, 0) and slope = 1 will be,

y = x.

11). Since, all the points of image and preimage points are equidistant from x-axis, line of reflection will be x-axis or y = 0.

12). Line passing through midpoint of the line joining BB' will be the line of reflection.

Coordinates of B → (5, 3)

Coordinates of B' → (5, 7)

Coordinates of BB' → [tex](\frac{5+5}{2},\frac{3+7}{2})[/tex] → (5, 5)

Therefore, line of reflection will be y = 5.

13). Coordinates of G → (2, 5)

     Coordinates of G' → (-2, 5)

     Midpoint joining the segment GG' → [tex](\frac{2-2}{2},\frac{5+5}{2})[/tex] → (0, 5)

     Therefore, line of reflection → x = 0

14). Line of reflection passing through (0, 0) and slope = -1

     y = -x

What is the distance between the two points (-5, 6) and (8,-4)?

Answers

Given parameters:

Coordinates of the two points = (-5, 6) and (8,-4)

Unknown:

Distance between the two points.

To find the distance between two points, use the expression below;

  Distance ²  = (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

where;

(-5, 6) and (8,-4)

         x₂ = 8 , x₁ = -5 , y₂ = -4 and y₁ = 6

Input the parameters and solve;

 Distance²  =  (8-(-5))²  +  (-4 - (6))²

                    = 169 + 100

                    = 269

Distance = [tex]\sqrt269}[/tex]   = 16.4

The distance between the two points is 16.4

3) The height of an object that is thrown straight up from a height of 6 feet

above ground is given by h(t) = -15t2 + 25t + 6, where t is the time in

seconds after the object is thrown. Find the average rate of the object from

1 to 4 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

- 44 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the model:

h(t) = -15t2 + 25t + 6

Average height of object from 1 - 4 seconds

At :

t = 1

h(1) = -15(1)^2 + 25(1) + 6 = 16 feets

t = 2

h(2) = -15(2)^2 + 25(2) + 6 = - 4 feets

t = 3

h(3) = -15(3)^2 + 25(3) + 6 = - 54 feets

t = 4

h(4) = -15(4)^2 + 25(4) + 6 = -134 feets

Average height:

(16 + (-4) + (-54) + (-134)) / 4 feets = (- 176 / 4) feets

= - 44 feets

What is Expression?

An expression in math is a sentence with a minimum of two numbers/variables and at least one math operation in it. Examples -

2x + 3y

3x + 5y + z

Given is a statement as (1/7) to the 2 power.

We have the given statement -

"(1/7) to the 2 power".

We can write it as -

[X] = (1/7)²

[X] = 1/7 x 1/7

[X] = 1/49

Therefore, the statement as (1/7) to the 2 power is equivalent to 1/49

write the equation of the line perpendicular to y= 5/2x+3 that passes through the point (-7,9). Type an answer using slope-intercept form or using the given points in point-slope form

Answers

Answer:

 5y = -2x + 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

      y = [tex]\frac{5}{2} x + 3[/tex]

Coordinate  = (-7,9)

Unknown:

Equation of the line perpendicular  = ?

Solution:

The slope - intercept format of a line is given as;

      y = mx + c

where y and x are the coordinates

           m is the slope

           c is the y-intercept

y = [tex]\frac{5}{2} x + 3[/tex]

 From the given equation; slope is [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

       

A line perpendicular will have a slope that is negative and the inverse of this;

      slope of perpendicular line  = [tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Since y= 9 and x = -7;

  So;

            9 = [tex]\frac{-2}{5} x (-7)[/tex] + C

            9 = [tex]\frac{14}{5}[/tex] + C

           C  = 9 - [tex]\frac{14}{5}[/tex]   = [tex]\frac{31}{5}[/tex]

Now,

       y  =  [tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex]x +  [tex]\frac{31}{5}[/tex]
