Mia and holly can clean their room in 20 minutes, working together. Working alone, mia can clean the room in 30. How long would it take holly to clean alone?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = Time taken by Holly to clean alone.

Given: Time taken by Mia to clean alone = 30 minutes

Time taken by Mia and holly to clean their room = 20 minutes

Then,

[tex]\dfrac1t+\dfrac{1}{30}=\dfrac{1}{20}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3-2}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{60}\\\\\Rightarrow\ t= 60[/tex]

Hence, Holly would take 60 minutes to clean alone.

Help me please find the slope and y-intercept

Answers

Answer:

Slope is 2.15

y-intercept is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find slope and y-intercept of the graph given.

The formula used to find slope is: [tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Looking at the graph, we can find 2 points

Point 1 : (0,-2)

Point (2): (2,-2.3)

Now putting values and finding slope:

We have: [tex]x_1=0, y_1=-2, x_2=2, y_2=-2.3[/tex]

[tex]Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{2.3-(-2)}{2-0}\\ Slope=\frac{2.3+2}{2}\\ Slope=\frac{4.3}{2}\\Slope=2.15[/tex]

So, we get slope = 2.15

Now, finding y-intercept

y-intercept can be found if we put x =0

Looking at the graph, when x =0, y = 2

So, y-intercept is 2

You plan to meet a friend at a local bowling alley on Sunday afternoon. Prior to bowling, you must pay an initial fee of $6.00 to rent shoes and will then pay $4.00 per game you play. Which equation (written in slope-intercept form) best models this scenario? Let y represent your total cost and x represent the number of games you play. Group of answer choices y = 4x + 6 y = 2x + 6 y = 6x + 4 y = 4x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 4x + 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Initial\ Fee = \$6.00[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \$4.00[/tex]

Required

Derive the linear equation

Let the number of games be x.

Let the total cost be y

So, if the rate of 1 game is $4

Then x games costs 4x

The total cost (y) is then calculated as:

y = Initial Fee + Cost of x games

Substitute values for initial fee and cost of x games

[tex]y = 6 + 4x[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]y = 4x + 6[/tex]

Write an equation in slope-intercept form perpendicular to the given equation through the given point
Y = -3x + 4
(6,-2)

Answers

Answer:

The equation in slope-intercept form perpendicular to the given equation [tex]y = -3x + 4[/tex] through the given point (6,-2) is [tex]\mathbf{y=\frac{1}{3}x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write an equation in slope-intercept form perpendicular to the given equation through the given point

y = -3x + 4

(6,-2)

The general equation in slope intercept form is: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding slope:

The given line is perpendicular to required line, so there slopes are opposite

The slope of given line [tex]y = -3x + 4[/tex] is m = -3, (By comparing it with general equation y=mx+b, we get m = -3)

The slope of required line is: [tex]m = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Finding y-intercept:

y-intercept can be found by using slope [tex]m = \frac{1}{3}[/tex] and the point(6,-2)

[tex]y=mx+b\\-2=\frac{1}{3}(-6)+b\\-2=-2+b\\b=-2+2\\b=0[/tex]

So, we get y-intercept b =0

Equation of required line:

So, the equation of required line having slope [tex]m = \frac{1}{3}[/tex] and y-intercept b =0 is:

[tex]y=mx+b\\y=\frac{1}{3}x+0\\y=\frac{1}{3}x[/tex]

So, the equation in slope-intercept form perpendicular to the given equation [tex]y = -3x + 4[/tex] through the given point (6,-2) is [tex]\mathbf{y=\frac{1}{3}x}[/tex]

In a juggling competition, 7/ 20 of all the jugglers use balls only, 3/ 7 of all the jugglers use rings only, and the rest of jugglers use both balls and rings. If there are less than 200 jugglers in the competition, how many jugglers use both balls and rings?

Answers

Answer:

44

Step-by-step explanation:

Number who use balls only = 7 / 20

Number who use rings only = 3/7

Fraction who use both :

1 - (7/20 + 3/7)

1 - 0.7785714

= 0.2214285

If number of jugglers is less than 200

Number of jugglers who use both :

0.2214285 * 200

= 44.285714

Number of jugglers who use both should be about 44

A travelers ground speed is 2 feet per second against the walkway and 8 feet per second with the walkway, what is the travelers speed off the walkway, what is the speed of yhe walkway

Answers

Answer:

The traveller's speed is 5ft/s and the walkway speed is 3ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the traveller's speed with T and the walkway's speed with W.

When the traveller walk against the walkway, we have:

[tex]T - W = 2[/tex] ---- i.e. 2ft/s against the walkway

When the traveller walk with the walkway, we have:

[tex]T + W = 8[/tex] ---- i.e. 8ft/s with the walkway

Required

Solve for W and T

[tex]T - W = 2[/tex] --- (i)

[tex]T + W = 8[/tex] --- (ii)

Add (i) and (ii)

[tex]T + T - W + W = 2 + 8[/tex]

[tex]T + T = 2 + 8[/tex]

[tex]2T = 10[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2T}{2} = \frac{10}{2}[/tex]

[tex]T = \frac{10}{2}[/tex]

[tex]T = 5[/tex]

Substitute 5 for T in (ii)

[tex]T + W = 8[/tex]

[tex]5 + W = 8[/tex]

Make W the subject

[tex]W = 8 - 5[/tex]

[tex]W = 3[/tex]

Hence, the traveller's speed is 5ft/s and the walkway speed is 3ft/s

Michelle lives 4.5 miles from work. Kelly lives 5.6 kilometers from work. Staci lives 4,200 meters from work. Kyle lives 670,000 centimeters from work.

Answers

Answer:

Michelle < Staci < Kelly < Kyle

Kyle is the greatest distance from work, while Michelle is the closest to work.

Step-by-Step Explanation:

1 kilometer = 0.62137119 mile(s)

4.5 miles = 0.62137119 × 4.5 = 2.79617036 kilometers

4,200 meters = 4.2 kilometers

670,000 centimeters = 6.7 kilometers

So,

Michelle = 2.8 kilometers (rounded up)

Kelly = 5.6 kilometers

Staci = 4.2 kilometers

Kyle = 6.7 kilometers

So,

Michelle < Staci < Kelly < Kyle

Kyle is the greatest distance from work, while Michelle is the closest to work.

Answer:

(a) When a = 4 and b = -5,  a² + b² - a·b = 61

(b) When a = 4 and b = -5,  a³·b + a·b² = -220

(c)  [tex]When \ a = 4 \ and \ b = -5, \ \dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b = 0[/tex]

(d) When a = 4 and b = -5, (a + b)² - (a - b)² = 82

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to evaluation of expressions, given the values of the variables, "a" and "b"

Where;

a = 4 and b = -5

(a) For a² + b² - a·b, we have;

a² + b² - a·b = 4² + (-5)² - 4 × (-5) = 16 + 25 + 20 = 41 + 20 = 61

(b) For a³·b + a·b² we have;

a³·b + a·b² = 4³·(-5) + 4·(-5)² = 64 × (-5) + 4 × 25 = -320 + 100 = -220

(c) For [tex]\dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b[/tex], we have;

[tex]\dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b = \dfrac{4 - (-5)}{4 + (-5)} + 4 - (-5) = \dfrac{4 + 5}{4 -5} + 4 + 5= \dfrac{9}{-1} + 4 + 5 = -9 + 4 + 5 = 0[/tex]

[tex]\therefore when \ a = 4 \ and \ b = -5, \ \dfrac{a - b}{a + b} + a -b = 0[/tex]

(d) For (a + b)² - (a - b)² we have;

(a + b)² - (a - b)² = (4 + (-5))² - (4 - (-5))² = (4 - 5)² - (4 + 5)² = (-1)² - 9² = 1 + 81 = 82

When a = 4 and b = -5, (a + b)² - (a - b)² = 82

I have a bag with yellow and blue marbles in it. At the moment, the ratio of blue marbles to yellow marbles is 4:3. If I add 5 blue marbles and remove 3 yellow marbles, the ratio will be 7:3. How many blue marbles were in the bag before I added more?

Answers

Answer:

4:7  7 being to total number of marbles (part to whole ratio)

There are 16 blue marbles were in the bag before I added more.

What is mean by Ratio?

A ratio indicates how many times one number contain in another number. The ratio of two number is written as x : y, which is equivalent to x/y. Where, x and y are individual amount of two quantities. And, Total quantity gives after combine as x + y.

Given that;

The ratio of blue marbles to yellow marbles is 4 : 3.

And,  If I add 5 blue marbles and remove 3 yellow marbles, the ratio will be 7:3.

Now,

Since, The ratio of blue marbles to yellow marbles is 4 : 3.

Hence, Number of blue marbles = 4x

Number of yellow marbles = 3x

And, If I add 5 blue marbles and remove 3 yellow marbles, the ratio will be 7:3.

Then, We can formulate;

⇒ 4x + 5 / 3x - 3 = 7x / 3x

⇒ (4x + 5) / (3x - 3) = 7 / 3

⇒ 3 (4x + 5) = 7 (3x - 3)

⇒ 12x + 15 = 21x - 21

⇒ 15 + 21 = 21x - 12x

⇒ 36 = 9x

⇒ x = 4

Thus, The number of blue marbles = 4x

                                                      = 4 × 4

                                                      = 16
