One person can mow a lawn in 30 minutes. A second person requires 45 minutes to mow that lawn. How long will it take the two people, working together, to mow the lawn?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  16 1/4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the mowing rate for the first person, and B the rate for the second. X will be the time spent mowing.

We are told that A = 30 min/lawn.  B = 45 min/lawn.  These are conversion factors, so we can invert them to:

A =  1 lawn/30 min.  B = 1 lawn/45 min

If both work together, the amount of lawn that is mowed working togehterwould be the time, X (in minutes), spent times their individual rates:

X*(A + B) = Lawn Mowed

We want to know the time, X, it would take to mow the same 1 lawn together.  [Lawn Mowed = 1].  Use the equation:

X*(A + B) = Lawn Mowed

X*((1 lawn/30 min) + (1 lawn/45 min)) = 1

X/(30 min) + X/(45 min) = 1

X/30 + X/45= 1

X + X(30/35) = 30  {Multiply both sides by 30]

(1 + 30/35)X = 30

(65/35)X = 30

X = 30*(35/65)

X = 30/(7/13)

X = 30*(7/13)

X = 210/13

X =  16 1/4 minutes

the answer for (9squared divided by 3) - ( 3 x 5 ) = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

(9squared divided by 3) - ( 3 x 5 ) = 12

9x9 = 81

81 ÷ 3 = 27

27 - (3x5)

3 x 5 = 15

27 - 15 = 12

so it goes in the 12 box

4squared - ( 2 x 3 )

4squared = 4 x 4

4 x 4 = 16

16 - (2 x 3)

2 x 3 = 6

16 - 6 = 10

so it goes in the 10 box

Jacob has a headache. He can't stand long lists. "Can you repeat that again?" he asks. "It's easy. Name a number that is greater than 10, less than 20, is a multiple of 7, and FINALLY is a factor of 42," Replies Eric.

Answers

i think it would be 14. greater than 10 and less than 20. 42/3 is 14 and 7 times 2 is 14

Answer:

Well here are the constraints given to us here

Lets make this number “x”

x > 10

x< 20

7x

X = 1, 2, 6, 7, 21, 42

So with all this we can come up with this

10 < 7x < 20 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

So lets cut this down a bit

It’s gotta be a multiple of 7 so we can get rid of 3 of the solutions

It can be 7, 14, 21, 42

Now it has to be more then 10 but less then 20

So that gets rid of everything except 14

14 is your answer

At his birthday party, John's mother served a plate of 23 cupcakes. If every person at the party ate the same amount of cupcakes and all of the cupcakes were eaten, how many people
were at John's birthday party?

A) 23
B) 12
C) 6
D) 4

Answers

Answer:

A) 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's divide the total number of cupcakes by the different option choices, and see what works and what doesn't:

A) 23/ 23 = 1

   This works, everyone will get one cupcake

B) 23 / 12 ≈ 1.91666667

   This doesn't work, we have a decimal / remainder, and you normally would not split 2/3s of a cupcake with someone at a party

C) 23 / 6 ≈ 3.8333334

   This doesn't work, we have a decimal / remainder, and you normally would not split 2/3s of a cupcake with someone at a party

D) 23 / 12 ≈ 5.75

   This doesn't work, we have a decimal / remainder, while this is a nicer remainder, it still is incorrect

Solve the equation or inequality. t/3+t/2−350=270

Answers

Answer:

t=744

Step-by-step explanation:

t/3+t/2-350=270 add 350 on both sides

t/3+t/2=620 convert both fractions containing t into a fraction with a common base

2t/6+3t/6 = 620 add the fractions containing t

5t/6=620 factor out the 5

5*(t/6)=620 divide both sides by 5

t/6=124 multiply both sides by 6 (note, you could have just divided 620 by 5/6 on both sides, or multiplided both sides by 6/5)

t=744

The mean of 16, X, 3, 14,57 is 22. Find
Х

Answers

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The mean of 16, X, 3, 14, 57 is 22.

Therefore,

(16+X+3+14+57)/5 = 22

(16+X+3+14+57) = 110

(90+X) = 110

X = 110-90

X = 20

The value of x will be 20.

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

The mean of set 16, X, 3, 14, 57 is 22.

Now,

Since, The mean of 16, X, 3, 14, 57 is 22.

Hence, By definition of mean we get;

⇒ 16 + X + 3 + 14 + 57 / 5 = 22

Solve for x as;

⇒ 90 + X / 5 = 22

⇒ 90 + X = 22 × 5

⇒ 90 + X = 110

⇒ X = 110 - 90

⇒ X = 20

Thus, The value of x will be 20.

Liz is a salesperson at a department store. She gets paid an hourly wage plus a 5 percent commission on all her sales. Her pay is given by the formula below.

P = $6h + $0.05k

In this formula, h is the number of hours worked, and k is the dollar amount of sales. Liz worked 36 hours last week and sold $2,700 of merchandise. What was her total pay for the week?

Answers

Answer:

$351.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Our first step in this process is to find what the hours - represented by h - times $6.00 would result in. Since 36 ⋅ 6 results in $216.00, we know that $216.00 + $0.05k = last week's pay for Liz.

Our second step is to find what $0.05 is being multiplied by. We see in the given information that k represents the dollar amount of sales. Therefore, in the second step of this process, we'll be multiplying 0.05 by 2700, which results in $135.00.

We then add $216.00 - the remaining value to be added - to the second value of $135.00, making the answer to this math problem $351.00.
