Xavier can paint the average house in 4 hours, while Mohamad can do it in 12 hours. Find the number of hours, $$, that it would take to paint a house if they both worked together.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Xavier can paint the average house in 4 hours

This means that in 1 hour, Xavier paints 1/4 of the house

Mohamad can do it in 12 hours

That means in 1 hour, Mohamad paints 1/12 of the house

Hence,

Together the amount of the house they can paint in 1 hour is

1/4 + 1/12

The Least common denominator is 12

(3 × 1 + 1 × 1)/1#

= 3 + 1/12

= 4/12

= 1/3

Together they can paint 1/3 of the house

The number of hours, that it would take to paint a house if they both worked together is

= 1/3 = 1

Cross Multiply

= 3 × 1

= 3 hours

Computer salespeople at a local store earn a $100 commission per computer for the first 5 computers they sell each month. For every additional computer they sell during that month, the commission per computer is 1.5 times the rate for the first five. Which of the following is the total commission earned by a salesperson who sells 8 computers in a month?

A. $190
B. $800
C. $950
D. $1,050
E. $1,200

Answers

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you have to find the new commission sales after first 5 computera are sold. In order to do so, you have to multiply it by 1.5 :

$100 × 1.5 = $150

Next, you have to find the total amount :

($100×5) + ($150×3)

= $500 + $450

= $950

Tony bought 255 1-inch nails and 5 boxes of 2-inch nails. Each box of 2-inch nails had equal amounts of nails in them. He bought a total of 620 nails. Find the number of nails in each box of 2-inch nails.

Answers

Answer:

73 nails

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of 1 inch = 255

Boxes of 2 - inch = 5

Each box of 2 _inch has equal amount of nails

Total number of nails = 620

Number of nails in each box of 2_inch nails:

Let Number of nails in each box = b

Number of 1_inch + 5 * number of 2_inch = 620

255 + 5b = 620

5b = 620 - 255

5b = 365

5b / 5 = 365 / 5

b = 73

Hence, there are 73 nails in each box of 2_inch nails

How many liters each of a 45% acid solution and a 70% acid solution must be used to produce 50 liters of a 65% acid solution? (Round to two decimal places if necessary.)

Answers

Answer:

The number of liters of the 45% acid solution = 10 liters

The number of liters of the 70% acid solution is = 40 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

How many liters each of a 45% acid solution and a 70% acid solution must be used to produce 50 liters of a 65% acid solution? (Round to two decimal places if necessary.)

Let x be the number of liters of the 45% acid solution

The number of liters of the 70% acid solution is y

x + y = 50

x = 50 - y

Also

How many liters each of a 45% acid solution and a 70% acid solution must be used to produce 50 liters of a 65% acid solution?

We have:

45% × x + 70% × y = 65% × 50

0.45x + 0.70y = 0.65 × 50

0.45x + 0.70y = 32.5

We substitute x = 50 - y in the equation

0.45(50 - y) + 0.70y = 32.5

= 22.5 - 0.45y + 0.70y = 32.5

= - 0.45y + 0.70y = 32.5 - 22.5

= 0.25y = 10

Divide both sides by 0.25

= y = 10/0.25

y = 40 liters

x = 50 - y

x = 50 - 40

x = 10 liters

Hence,

The number of liters of the 45% acid solution = 10 liters

The number of liters of the 70% acid solution is = 40 liters

The function = 3describes the volume of a cube, , in cubic inches, whose length, width, and height each measure inches. Find the (instantaneous) rate of change of the volume with respect to when = 3 ℎ.

Answers

The correct structure of the question is as follows:

The function f(x) = x^3 describes a cube's volume, f(x) in cubic inches, whose length, width, and height each measures x inches. If x is changing, find the (instantaneous) rate of change of the volume with respect to x at the moment when x = 3 inches.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

f(x) = x^3

Then;

V = x^3

The rate whereby V is changing with respect to time is can be determined by taking the differentiation of V

dV/dx = 3x^2

Now, at the moment when x = 3;

dV/dx = 3(3)^2

dV/dx = 3(9)

dV/dx = 27 cubic inch per inch

Suppose it is at the moment when x = 9

Then;

dV/dx = 3(9)^2

dV/dx = 3(81)

dV/dx = 243 cubic inch per inch

Step-by-step explanation:

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [a, b] is computed from ...

  m = (f(b) -f(a))/(b -a)

On the interval [-3, 5] the average rate of change is ...

  m = (f(5) -f(3))/(5 -(-3)) = ((-5^2 +6·5 +12) -(-(-3)^2 +6(-3) +12))/8

     = (-25 +30 +12 +9 +18 -12)/8 = 32/8

  m = 4

The average rate of change on the interval is 4.

__

Alternate solution

The first derivative of the function is ...

  f'(x) = -2x +6

The average rate of change of a parabolic function on an interval is the rated of change at the midpoint of the interval. Here, the midpoint is x=(5+(-3))/2 = 1, so the average rate of change is ...

  f'(1) = -2(1) +6 = 4

THE ANSWERS ARE:

(4y-2)=118degrees
y=30

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles that you have shown are called same side exterior angles.

All same side exterior angles add to 180 degrees

Since we know this, we can make the following equation:

2y+2+4y-2=180

6y=180

y=30

To get each angle you can plug in y:

2*30+2=62

4*30-2=118
