Answer:
together rate = 1/20 min/job
one comp. rate = 1/(x-9) min/job
2nd comp. rate = 1/x min/job
-------------------------------
Equation:
rate + rate = together rate
1/x + 1/(x-9) = 1/20
---
20(x-9) + 20x = x(x-9)
40x-9*20 = x^2-9x
---
x^2-49x + 180 = 0
Factor:
(x-45)(x-4) = 0
Realistic solution since 4-9 is negative:
x = 45 minutes
then
x-9 = 36 minutes (faster computer time to do the job)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the letters q and d to represent # of quarters and # of dollars.
q + d = 22 coins.
$0.25q + $1.00d = $10.75 Mult. this by 100 to eliminate fractions:
25q + 100d = 1075
Subst. q = 22 - d into the 2nd equation:
25 (22 - d) + 100 d = 1075
550 - 25d + 100d = 1075
550 + 75d = 1075
75 d = 525
d = 7
q + d = 22, so if d = 7, then q = 22-7, or q=15.
There are 15 quarters and 7 dimes.
Answer:
<u>option 1</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is as shown in the attached figure.
From the figure, we can deduce that:
∠U ≅ ∠X and ∠W ≅ ∠Z and ∠V ≅ ∠Y
So, ΔUWV similar to ΔXZY
But it is required to know " How can the triangles be proven similar by the SSS similarity theorem? "
So, we need to prove the corresponding angles are proportion
With the help of the previous corresponding angles.
So, we need to show that the ratios 
are equivalent.
So, the answer is <u>option 1</u>
You will have infinite solutions
