leni can decorate the room in 4 hours. her sister lucy do the same jobin 3 hours working together, how long will take them to finish the job

Answers

Answer 1

Fractions are integers that have both a numerator and a denominator. They are represented as; [tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex]

Where:

x = Numerator

y = Denominator.

It will take them both [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] hours or 0.583 hours to finish the job together.

To solve the above question, we would be applying the operations of the addition of fractions.

From the question,

Leni can decorate the room in 4 hours. This means in 1 hour, Leni can paint 1/4 of the room.

Lucy, her sister can decorate the room in 3 hours. This means in 1 hour, lucy can decorate 1/3 of the room.

Let us represent the number of hours it will take them both to decorate the room working together as "T"

Hence,

1/T = 1/4 + 1/3

Lowest Common Denominator for (3, 4 ) = 12

Hence,

1/T = 3 + 4 / 12

1/T = 7/12

Find the reciprocal of both sides

T = 7/12 hours or can be expressed in decimals as 0.583 hours.

Therefore, it will take them both [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] hours or 0.583 hours to finish the job together.

7x - 2y = 13​

Answers

Answer: The slope is 3.5 (or 7/2) and the y-intercept is -6.5 (or -13/2).

Solving Steps:
The equation must be put in slope-intercept form to easily identify the slope and y-intercept.
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

7x - 2y = 13
-2y = -7x + 13
y = 3.5x - 6.5

Find mJTS

A) 104°
C) 120°
E) 87°
B) 128°
D) 74°

Answers

Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

∠JTS = ∠SRT  + ∠TSR   {exterior angles equals sum of opposite interiror angles}

27x - 4 = 18x + 2 + 30

27x  - 4 = 18x + 32

Add 4 to both sides

27x = 18x + 32 + 4

27x = 18x + 36

Subtract  18x from both sides

27x - 18x = 36

9x = 36

Divide  both sides by 9

x = 36/9

x = 4

∠JTS = 27x - 4

         = 27*4 - 4

         = 108 - 4

        = 104

slope = -6/5

Y-Intercept = 2

Answers

The point slope form is y — y1 = m(x — x1).

Given the slope (m) = -6/5, and the y-intercept of 2, we could simply plug in these values into the point-slope form.

The point-slope is:

y — 2 = -6/5(x — 0)

where (x1, y1) = (0, 2) (y-intercept)
m = -6/5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

£14708.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Always start with the original amount, in this case 14000.

Then, because it's an increase, add 2.5 to 100. You could also think of it as adding 2.5% to 100%, which is 102.5%. We then divide that by 100.

So far our calculation is 14000 x 1.025.

We now need to do this for the two days on. We can do this in 2 ways.

1. 14000 x 1.025 x 1.025

or.

2. 14000 x 1.025^2

They're both the same thing.

We then type that calculation into your calculator and you should get £14708.75

If JM=30 and LM=8, what is KM?

Answers

If side JM = 30 and side LM = 8, the length of side KM is equal to 15.49 units.

How to determine the length of side KM?

In this exercise, we would assign the variable x to the length of side KM. Based on the information provided about triangle JKM and triangle KML, we can logically deduce the following parameters;

Side JL = [(30 + 8) × x]/2

Side JL = 38x/2

Side JL = 19x.

Since point M is the perpendicular bisector of both triangle JKM and triangle KML, the length of side KM can be calculated as follows;

19x = √[(30² + x²)(x² + 8²)]/2

38x = √[(30² + x²)(x² + 8²)]

By taking the square of both sides, we have:

38²x² = (900 + x²)(x² + 64)

38²x² = 900x² + 57,600 + x⁴ + 64x²

38²x² = 964x² + 57,600 + x⁴

(x² - 240)² = 0

x² = 240

x = √240

x = 15.49 units.

C. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, let's solve the system of equations; [tex]-m - n = 5, m - n = -3[/tex]

Solve -m - n = 5 for m.

[tex]-m -n = 5[/tex] [tex]-m-n+n=5+n[/tex] [tex]-m = n + 5[/tex] [tex]\frac{-m}{-1} = \frac{n+5}{-1}[/tex] [tex]m = -n - 5[/tex]

Substitute -n - 5 for m in m - n = -3.

[tex]m - n = -3[/tex] [tex]-n - 5 - n = -3[/tex] [tex]-2n-5=-3[/tex] [tex]-2n-5+5=-3+5[/tex] [tex]-2n = 2[/tex] [tex]\frac{-2n}{-2} = \frac{2}{-2}[/tex] [tex]n = -1[/tex]  

Substitute -1 for n in m = -n - 5.

[tex]m = -n - 5[/tex] [tex]m = -(-1) - 5[/tex] [tex]m = 1 - 5[/tex] [tex]m = -4[/tex]

2. Okay, now that we know m = -4 and n = -1, let's solve for m^2 -n^2.

[tex]m^2-n^2[/tex] [tex](-4)^2-(-1)^2[/tex] [tex]16 - (-1)^2[/tex] [tex]16 - 1[/tex] [tex]15[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is C. 15!
