Jane, Paul and Peter can finish painting the fence in 2 hours. If Jane does the job alone she can finish it in 5 hours. If Paul does the job alone he can finish it in 6 hours. How long will it take for Peter to finish the job alone?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 7.5 hours (or 7 hours 30 minutes)

==================================================

Explanation:

Jane does the job alone and she can finish it in 5 hours. Her rate is 1/5 of a job per hour. By "job", I mean painting the entire fence. Notice that multiplying 1/5 by the number of hours she works will yield the value 1 to indicate one full job is done.

Through similar reasoning, Paul's rate is 1/6 of a job per hour.

Let x be the time, in hours, it takes Peter to get the job done if he worked alone. His rate is 1/x of a job per hour.

Combining the three individual rates gives

1/5 + 1/6 + 1/x = (6x)/(30x) + (5x)/(30x) + (30)/(30x)

1/5 + 1/6 + 1/x = (6x+5x+30)/(30x)

1/5 + 1/6 + 1/x = (11x+30)/(30x)

The expression (11x+30)/(30x) is the total rate if the three people worked together. This is assuming neither worker slows another person down.

Set this equal to 1/2 as this is the combined rate (based on the fact everyone teaming up gets the job done in 2 hours). Then solve for x

(11x+30)/(30x) = 1/2

2(11x+30) = 30x*1 .... cross multiply

22x+60 = 30x

60 = 30x-22x

60 = 8x

8x = 60

x = 60/8

x = 7.5

It takes Peter 7.5 hours, or 7 hours 30 minutes, to get the job done if he worked alone.

--------------

Here's another equation to solve though its fairly the same idea as above

1/5 + 1/6 + 1/x = 1/2

30x*(1/5 + 1/6 + 1/x) = 30x*(1/2) ... multiply both sides by LCD

30x(1/5) + 30x(1/6) + 30x(1/x) = 30x(1/2)

6x + 5x + 30 = 15x

11x + 30 = 15x

30 = 15x-11x

30 = 4x

4x = 30

x = 30/4

x = 7.5

We get the same answer

Answer 2

Answer:  7 . 5 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes Jane 5 hours to finish the fence so she can get  [tex]\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] of the job done in 1 hour.

It takes Paul 6 hours to finish the fence so he can get  [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex] of the job done in 1 hour.

It takes Peter x hours to finish the fence so he can get  [tex]\dfrac{1}{x}[/tex] of the job done in 1 hour.

Together, it takes them 2 hours to finish the fence so they can get  [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] of the job done in 1 hour.

Jane + Paul + Peter = Together

[tex]\dfrac{1}{5}\quad +\quad \dfrac{1}{6}\quad +\quad \dfrac{1}{x}\quad =\quad \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Multiply everything by 30x to eliminate the denominator:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{5}(30x) + \dfrac{1}{6}(30x) +\dfrac{1}{x}(30x) =\dfrac{1}{2}(30x)[/tex]

Simplify and solve for x:

6x + 5x + 30 = 15x

      11x + 30 = 15x

              30 = 4x

              [tex]\dfrac{30}{4}=x[/tex]

              7.5 = x

Mrs. Watson wants to buy some dresses for her trip to Houston. There are three boutiques, each offering a different deal.
Table
Lara's Boutique 4 dresses for $64
The Dress Shop 5 dresses for $75
Marge's Dresses 8 dresses for $160
Which boutique has the best deal for dresses?
A. Both Marge's Dresses and Lara Boutique
B. The Dress Shop
C. Lara's Boutique
D. Marge's Dresses

Answers

Answer:

B. The Dress Shop.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the best deal, we want to find the cost for one dress.

Lara's Boutique: $64 for 4 dresses.

x / 1 = 64 / 4

x = 64 / 4

x = $16 per dress.

The Dress Shop: $75 for 5 dresses.

x / 1 = 75 / 5

x = 75 / 5

x = $15 per dress.

Marge's Dresses: $160 for 8 dresses.

x / 1 = 160 / 8

x = 160 / 8

x = $20 per dress.

The boutique with the best deal will have the cheapest dresses. So, the best deal would be at B. The Dress Shop.

Each new triangle shown below has one more dot per side than the previous triangle. What is the total number of dots on the 200th triangle of this sequence? Answer:

Answers

Answer:

The total number of dots on the 200th triangle is 603

Step-by-step explanation:

Please check the attachment for the diagram of the triangular dots that completes the question

From the diagram, we can see that the first triangle has 6 total dots, second has 9 total dots, third has 12 total dots;

This shows a arithmetic progression pattern of the triangles where we have our first term being 6, with our common difference being the number of dots increment on all sides as we progress which is 3

Now we want to calculate for the 200th triangle

Mathematically, the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given as;

Tn = a + (n-1)d

where a = 6 , d = 3 and n = 200

Substituting these values in the equation above, we have

Tn = 6 + (200-1)3

Tn = 6 + 199(3)

Tn = 6 + 597

Tn = 603

D) A worker with 15 years of service gets 5 weeks of vacation and each year.

Answers

Answer: it seems to be D, but the equation makes practically no sense!

The value of the factor changes for the different amounts of service years and vacation weeks.

Step-by-step explanation: The equation means that the employee is trying to figure out the value of the "v-factor" for how vacation time is earned.

If you substitute the number of service years into the left side of the "formula" and vacation weeks on the right side, then solve for "v", v(15)=5 you get v= 1/3 or 0.33

If you substitute other numbers, like v(2)=2, so v= 1 then v(30) = 8, v = 4/15 or 0.2667. You see the factor's value decreases. The company is much more generous to to employees with one or two years of service than with the older ones.

find the area of triangle whose vertices are (- 8,4 )(- 6,6) and (- 3,9)​

Answers

Answer:

Area of the triangle = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the vertices of a triangle as: (- 8,4 ), (- 6,6), (- 3,9)​

The formula to find the Area of the triangle =

1/2[ x₁(y₂ - y₃) + x₂(y₃ - y₁) + x₃(y₁ - y₂)]

Where :

(x₁, y₁) =  (- 8,4 )

(x₂, y₂) = (- 6,6)

(x₃, y₃) =  (- 3,9)

Area of the triangle = 1/2[-8(6 - 9) + -6(9 - 4) + -3(4 - 6)]

= 1/2[ (-8 × -3) +( -6 × 5) +( -3× -2)]

= 1/2[ 24 - 30 + 6)

= 1/2[ 24 + 6 - 30]

= 1/2 [30 - 30]

=1/2[ 0 ]

= 0

Therefore, the area of triangle whose vertices are (- 8,4 ), (- 6,6) and (- 3,9)​ is ZERO( = 0 )

Answer:

8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 + 1 / ( 2 2/5) - 1/x = 1/3 -  1 / ( 2 2/3)

Changing to improper fractions

2 2/5 = ((5*2+2) / 5 = 12/5

2 2/3 = ( 3*2+2) /3 = 8/3

2/3 + 1 / ( 12/5) - 1/x = 1/3 -  1 / ( 8/3)

1 over and improper fraction flips the improper fraction  1 / ( a/b) = b/a

2/3 + 5/12 - 1/x = 1/3 -3/8

Subtract 2/3 from each side

5/12 -1/x = 1/3 -2/3 -3/8

5/12 -1/x =  -1/3 -3/8

Subtract 5/12 from each side

-1/x =  -1/3 -3/8-5/12

Multiply each side by 24 to get rid of the fractions

-24/x = -24/3 -3*24/8 -5*24/12

-24/x = -8 -9 -10

-24/x = -27

Multiply each side by x

-24 = -27x

Divide by -27

Answers

Answer:

x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ray IK║EH and IG is a transverse,

∠GIK ≅ ∠IGF [Corresponding angles]

Therefore, m∠IGF = x

Since, m∠JIF + m∠GIF = 180° [Supplementary angles]

2x + m∠GIF = 180°

m∠GIF = (180 - 2x)

Similarly, m∠IFE + m∠IFG = 180°

3x + m∠IFG = 180°

m∠IFG = (180 - 3x)

By the property of a triangle,

"Sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180°"

m∠IGF + m∠GFI + m∠FIG = 180°

x° + (180 - 2x)° + (180 - 3x)° = 180°

(x - 2x - 3x) + 360 = 180

-4x + 360 = 180

4x = 360 - 180

4x = 180

x = 45

Lcm of 5n and 5 is 5n thus:

(5n×⁴/5n)-(¹/5×5n)=²/5n×5n

4-n=2

4-2=n

n=2

confirmation

insert 2 insted of n

⁴/5(2)-¹/5=²/5(2)

Answers

Answer:

A. Pr(8)   = 1/10

B.  Pr(odd)  = 1/2

C.  Pr(even)  = 1/2

D. Pr(less than 6)  = 1/2

E.  Pr(prime) = 2/5

F. Pr(3 or 8)  = 1 / 5

G. Pr(8, 9 or 10) = 3/10

H. Pr(greater than 9)  = P(10) = 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume a FAIR 10-faced die, meaning there is an equal probability of throwing any one of the ten numbers.

With 10 possible outcomes each with equal probability, the probability of throwing any number is 1/10.

(It is preferable to work with fractions in probability because fractions are exact numbers, while decimals can often be rounded, or truncated).

A. Pr(8)   means probability of throwing an 8,  therefore Pr(8) = 1/10

B. Pr(odd)  there are 5 odd number from 1 to 10, so Pr(odd) = 5/10 = 1/2

C. Pr(even)  there are 5 even number from 1 to 10, so Pr(even) = 5/10 = 1/2

D. Pr(less than 6)  there are 5 numbers less than 6 (between1 to 10),

       so Pr(less than 6) = 5/10 = 1/2

E. Pr(prime) (remember that 1 is not prime)

   A prime number is an integer not divisible by any number except one and itself.

   Between 1 to 10, the four prime numbers are 2,3,5,7

   therefore Pr(prime) = 4/10 = 2/5

F. Pr(3 or 8)  

(3 or 8) make 2 successful outcomes out of 10, so Pr(3 or 8) = 2/10 = 1 / 5

G. Pr(8, 9 or 10)

similarly, (8,9 or 10) make three successful possible outcomes out of 10, so

P(8,9 or 10) = 3/10

H. Pr(greater than 9)

there is only one successful outcome, namely "10" out of 10 possible outcomes.  So

P(greater than 9) = P(10) = 1/10

1. please explain what’s a “die” all I know was “dice” but dice is 6 sided yea?

A die is singular for dice, which can take up any number of faces.  With a 10-faced solid, we can make a 10-faced die numbered 1 to 10.

2. and please explain the answer... I’m international student so I still need some explanation for the questions and answers thank you

See solutions above.

Answer:

Remember that standard probabilities are defined as the ratio between the number of favorable cases, and the total number of possible events.

In this case, we have a 10-sided die, which means its faces are numbered from 1 to 10, which gives us 10 total number of possible events. In other words, the denominator of the ratio is going to be 10.

Now we're able to find each probability.

(A) Probability of getting an 8:

[tex]P_{8} =\frac{1}{10}=0.10[/tex]

The numerator is 1 because there's only one number 8 in the die, that means the number of favorable cases is 1, and, as we said before, the total number of possible events is 10.

(B) Probability of getting an odd number:

[tex]P_{odd} =\frac{5}{10}=0.5[/tex]

The numerator is 5 because there are 5 odd numbers from 1 to 10. In other words, there are 5 favorable cases to this probability.

(C) Probability of getting an even number:

[tex]P_{even}=\frac{5}{10}=0.5[/tex]

There are 5 even numbers from 1 to 10, that's why we had the same probability.

(D) Probability of getting a number less than 6:

We know that there are only 5 numbers less than 6 for this die.

[tex]P_{<6}=\frac{5}{10}=0.5[/tex]

(E) Probability of getting a prime number:

A prime number is such that it can be divided only by itself and the unit. So, there are four prime numbers from 1 to 10, which are 2, 3, 5, 7.

[tex]P_{prime}=\frac{4}{10}=0.4[/tex]

(F) Probability of getting 3 or 8:

When we are going to find the probability of an event "or" another, we must sum those favorable cases.

[tex]P_{3 \ or \ 8} =\frac{1+1}{10}=\frac{2}{10}=0.2[/tex]

(G) Probability of getting 8, 9, or 10:

In this case, we need to some all three favorable cases. The die has only one 8, one 9 and one 10. So, the probability is

[tex]P_{8,9,10}=\frac{1+1+1}{10}=\frac{3}{10} =0.3[/tex]

(H) Probability of getting a number greater than 9:

We know that there's only one number greater than 10 on such die.

[tex]P_{>10}=\frac{1}{10}=0.1[/tex]

Lastly, "die" refers to this special 10-sided dice. In other problems, you can find "a die" with more faces even. But, in general, "die" refers to a dice.

A boat's value over time is given as the function f(x) and graphed below.  A(x) = 400(b)ˣ + 0 as the parent function.

Given that the boat's value decreases at a rate of 40% per year.

So after each year, the value becomes = 1 - 40% = 1 - 0.40 = 0.60 of the previous year.

So the equation becomes: A(x) = 400(0.60)ˣ + 0

Since, b = 0.60 < 1, so A(x) is a decreasing function. And for every value of x, A(x) > 0.

The attached graph meets these requirements.

Where will her cut be located? Round to the nearest tenth. x = (StartFraction m Over m + n EndFraction) (x 2 minus x 1) + x 1 A number line goes from 0 to 60. A line is drawn from 2 to 60. Genevieve is cutting a 60-inch piece of ribbon into a ratio of 2:3. Since 2 inches are frayed at one end of the ribbon, she will need to start 2 inches in. This is indicated as 2 on the number line

25.2 in.

29.4 in.

35.1 in.

40.7 in.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is 25.2 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that number line goes from 0 to 60 which can be used to represent a ribbon of length = 60 inches.

2 inches of the ribbon are frayed so actual length = 58 inches

Please refer to the attached image for the ribbon.

A is at 0

C is at 60

B is at 2

P is the point to divide the remaining ribbon in the ratio 2:3.

Part AB of the ribbon is frayed.

BP: PC = 2:3

Let BP = 2[tex]x[/tex] and PC = 3[tex]x[/tex]

Now, BP + PC = BC = 58 = 2[tex]x[/tex] + 3[tex]x[/tex] = 5[tex]x[/tex]

So,

[tex]5x =58\\\Rightarrow x =11.6[/tex]

BP = [tex]2\times x = 2 \times 11.6 = 23.2\ inches[/tex]

Location of the Cut = 2 + 23.2 = 25.2 inches

Alternatively, we can use the formula directly:

[tex]x = \dfrac{m} {m + n } (x_2 - x_1) + x_1[/tex]

[tex]x_1 = 2\\x_2 = 60[/tex]

m: n is the ratio 2:3

[tex]x = \dfrac{2} {2 +3 } (60- 2) + 2\\\Rightarrow 0.4 (58 )+2\\\Rightarrow 23.2+2 \\\Rightarrow \bold{25.2\ inches}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x we use tan

tan∅ = opposite / adjacent

From the question

The adjacent is x

The opposite is 30

So we have

tan 25° = 30/x

x tan 25 = 30

Divide both sides by tan 25

x = 30/tan 25

x = 64.34

x = 64 to the nearest tenth

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

H(x) = 3^(2x)

G(x) = reflecting H(x) across the y-axis and shifting 2 units down

=>G(x) = 3^(-2x) - 2

3^(2x) and 3^(-2x) - 2 are valid with all values of x.

=> There is no change in the domain of H(x) and G(x), in which all values of x satisfy H(x) and G(x).

3^(-2x) > 0

=> G(x) =  3^(-2x) - 2 > -2

=> Range of G(x) is from -2 to inifinity

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well lets graph it first,

Look at the image below↓

So the red line is the new line which has been reflected and shifted down 2.

Meaning the domain turns into positive numbers but still remains infinite.

And the range changes

So we can cross out A and B.

Before the range was lower than 1 and now its (-2,∞)

Thus,

answer choice D is correct.

A librarian has 10 nonfiction and eight fiction books from which to choose the next three book club selections.

What is the approximate probability that she chooses a fiction book, then a nonfiction book, then a fiction book?

0.114
0.131
0.686
0.784

Answers

Answer:

For this case we have a total of 10 nonfiction books and 8 fiction books, we are going to assume that the selection is without replacement so then for the first case the probability of select a fiction book is:

[tex] \frac{8}{18}[/tex]

For the second selection we have 17 books remaining and the probability of select a nonfiction book is:

[tex] \frac{10}{17}[/tex]

For the last selection we have 16 books remaining and the probability of select a fiction book would be:

[tex]\frac{7}{16}[/tex]

Sinally since the events are independent the total probability would be:

[tex] \frac{8}{18} *\frac{10}{17}*\frac{7}{16}= 0.114[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The difference in their wages is because the quantity of output produced by a unit of labor is higher for a cook than a dishwasher and also because Bruno is an unskilled labor while Charlie can be categorised as a semiskilled labor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bruno is a dishwasher

Charlie is a cook

Bruno earnings=$x

Charlie earns $2 more than his twin Bruno

Charlie earnings= $x+2.00

At the same restaurant for an hourly rate

The difference in the wages of Bruno and Charlie is as a result of the productivity of labor

The quantity of output produced by a unit of labor is higher for a cook than a dishwasher and also because Bruno is an unskilled labor while Charlie can be categorised as a semiskilled labor.
