John, Rick, and Molli can paint a room working together in 6 hours. Alone, John can paint the room in
12 hours. If Rick works alone, he can paint the room in 15 hours. Write an equation comparing the
group rate to the sum of the individual rates. Then find how long it will take Molli to paint the room if
working alone.

a. What is the equation?

b. What is the lowest common denominator for the equation in part a?

c. Show all work below in solving equation from part a.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer

a. [tex]\frac{1}{m}(6)+\frac{1}{12} (6)+\frac{1}{15} (6) =1[/tex]

b. 60hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time Molli will take to pint the room to be = t

Thus the amount of room that Molli can paint in 1 hour= 1/m

The amount of room John can paint is 1 hour= 1/12

The amount of room Rick can paint in 1 hour = 1/15

The equation for working together at a rate x time per work done will be;

[tex]\frac{1}{m} *6+\frac{1}{12} *6+\frac{1}{15} *6=1[/tex]

You multiply by 6 in the three terms of the equation because it takes 6 hours for John, Rick and Molli to complete painting.

[tex]\frac{6}{m} +\frac{1}{2} +\frac{2}{5} =1[/tex]

multiply by 10m in every part of the expression because 10m is the Least Common Multiple(LCM) is this case

Collect like terms and find value of m

[tex]60+5m+4m=10m\\\\60+9m=10m\\\\60=10m-9m\\\\60=m[/tex]

Molli will take 60 hours to paint the room if working alone

Answers

Answer:

The solution is the point (3,5)

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Line A ----> (2,6),(6,2)

Find the equation of the line A

Find the slope

m=(2-6)/(6-2)

m=-1

Find the equation of the line into point slope form

The equation is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=-1

point (2,6)

substitute

y-6=-1(x-2)

y=-x+2+6

y=-x+8 ------> equation of the line A

step 2

Line B ----> (0,3),(4.5,6)

Find the equation of the line B

Find the slope

m=(6-3)/(4.5-0)

m=(2/3)

Find the equation of the line into point slope form

The equation is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=(2/3)

point (0,3)

substitute

y-3=(2/3)(x-0)

y=(2/3)x+3 ------> equation of the line B

step 3

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both lines

today only, a suit is being sold at a 29% off (discount). The sale price is $284. What was the original price?​

Answers

If the original price is X, then(1-29%)X=284, so X=284/(1-0.29)=400

The original price of the suit is $400.

How to find the original price?

To find the original price, we must multiply the discounted value with the reciprocal of the percentage that it represents.

The original price can be found as shown below:

The discounted price is $284.

The percentage of discount is 29%.

Therefore, the percentage which represents the price is 100 - 29 which is 71%.

Therefore, we can find the original cost by multiplying the discounted price by the reciprocal of 71/100. This can be done as shown below:

The original price = 284 * 100/71

= $400.

We have found the original price. The original price is found to be $400.

Therefore, we have found that the original price of the suit is $400.

Answer:

x⁸y³

Step-by-step explanation:

x⁵ ÷ y² × x³ × y⁵

It will be easier to solve this problem if you first rearrange the expression to associate like terms.

(x⁵ × x³) × (y⁵ ÷ y²)

Now, you can use the rules of exponents: When multiplying, you add exponents; when dividing, you subtract exponents.

x⁵ × x³ = x⁵⁺³ = x⁸  

y⁵ ÷ y² = y⁵⁻² = y³

Thus,

(x⁵ × x³) × (y⁵ ÷ y²) = x⁸y³

Buying shares in a company is one way to invest money.

Answers

This statement is true.

When you buy a share in a company, you are investing your money, and you may earn more money if the share’s value rises, or you may lose money if the share’s value falls.

Investing in a company by buying shares makes you a shareholder, with potential income from dividends and stock appreciation. However, it carries risk as there is no guarantee for profits. Diversification is a key strategy when investing in stocks to mitigate risks.

Buying shares in a company is a common method of investment, wherein you become a shareholder and own a part of the company's equity. As a shareholder, you have a claim to the company's assets and profits proportional to the amount of stock you own. There are two primary ways that shareholders can earn money from their investments. One way is through dividends, which are payments distributed from the company's profit to shareholders. The other way is through appreciation in the stock's value, as the company grows and becomes more profitable; this increases the stock's market price, and you can sell your shares for a profit. It's important to understand that purchasing stock does involve risk, as there is no guarantee of dividends or stock appreciation. However, for many, owning stock is preferred over other investments like bonds because of the potential for higher returns. Lastly, when buying stock, especially that of your employer, it's advisable to follow general rules of portfolio investing, such as diversification, not to expose yourself to undue risk.

Miguel and Grace started collecting rare coins at the same time. Back then, they had the same number of rare coins. Miguel has been collecting 5 coins each week and he now has 38 coins. Grace has been collecting 3 coins each week and she now has 24 coins. How many rare coins did they have altogether when they started collecting?
A) 3
B) 6
C) 7
D) 14


Answers

The correct answer is 6

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Both collections follow arithmetic progression.

Back then, they had the same number of rare coins, which means their first term of AP is same. Let it be a.

Miguel's AP have a common difference 5 and Grace's AP have a common difference 3.

Let the number of weeks completed be n.

We have

           a + ( n-1 )x 5 = 38  -------- eqn 1

           a + ( n-1 )x 3 = 24  -------- eqn 2

eqn 1 - eqn 2

          a + ( n-1 )x 5 - (a + ( n-1 )x 3) = 38 - 24

          ( n-1 )x 2 = 14

          n-1 = 7

          n = 8

Substituting in eqn 1

           a + ( 8-1 )x 5 = 38

                     a = 38 - 35 =3

So at starting they both have 3 rare coins.

Total rare coins = 3 + 3 = 6

Option B is the correct answer

B. Range=233; interquartile range= 206
C. Range= 233; interquartile range= 156
D. Range= 211; interquartile range= 156

Answers

Answer:

It's B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is 344 - 111

= 233.

Arranging the data in ascending order:

111 133 134 183 284 339 344

The lower quartile = 133 and the upper quartile = 339.

So the interquartile range =  339 - 133

= 206.

We first need to list the following Data Set:

111, 133, 134, 183, 284, 334, 339

Range = highest value - lowest value =

Range = 339 - 111 = 228

Interquartile range = upper quartile - lower quartile =

(or IQR = interquartile range, another term)

Interquartile range = 334 - 133 = 201

199 a 426 students

Step-by-step explanation:

first to see what amount we are talking about in each case, let's see how many students each percentage represents

22% of students:  (22 * ​​1420 students) /100  = 312.4 students

8% of students: (8*1420 students)/100 = 114.6 students

that is, that the average number of students who work part time is 312.4 students. And that number can vary up to 114.6 students above and up to 114.6 students below

that can be expressed as

22% + 8% = 312.4 + 113.6 = 426 students

and

22% -8% = 312.4-113.6 = 198.8≅ 199 students

Find the 29th term of the following sequence. 2, 13, 24, 35,....

Answers

321

Look for a pattern: The term is 11 more than the number before. this means 11 is added each time.

Since you start with 2 and the number goes up by 11 per term, the equation you would use to find the nth term would be 11n+2

To find the 29th term, simply plug in 29

11n+2

11(29)+2

321 

The 29th term is 321.

First you have to find the rate of change. It would be 11 because 35 - 24 = 11, 24 - 13 = 11 and 13 - 2 = 11.

These are the first 4 terms so just keep adding on 11 until you get 29 terms.

2, 13, 24, 35, 46, 57, 68, 79, 90, 101, 112, 123, 134, 145, 156, 167, 178, 189

We know that if a figure is reflected across y axis then its y coordinate remains same but the x coordinate changes its polarity.

i.e. the function [tex]f(x)[/tex] will become [tex]f(-x)[/tex] .
