Push Mower
------------------------------------------------------------------
It takes 5 hours to complete the job
1 hour = 1/5 of the job
------------------------------------------------------------------
Riding Lawn Mower
------------------------------------------------------------------
It takes 3 hours to complete the job
1 hour = 1/3 of the job
------------------------------------------------------------------
Push Mower + Riding Lawn Mower
------------------------------------------------------------------
1 hour = 1/5 + 1/3
1 hour = 3/15 + 5/15
1 hour = 8/15 of the job.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Calculate time needed to complete
------------------------------------------------------------------
8/15 of the job takes 1 hour
8/15 of the job = 1 hour
------------------------------------------------------------------
Divide by 8/15 on both side
------------------------------------------------------------------
8/15 ÷ 8/15 of the job = 1 ÷ 8/15 hour
Whole of the job = 1 x 15/8 hours
Whole of the job = 15/8 hours
Whole of the job = 1 7/8 hours
------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 1 7/8 hours
------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic parent function is y=x^2 which means the vertex is the origin because if you input 0 into the function you will get an output of zero. (0,0) is the origin which is where the graph intersect.
Well, as you can see from the rectangle RT and SW should have equal lengths. So to find the value of x, we need to do.....
4x + 10 = 5x - 20
-x + 10 = -20 (Subtraction property of equality)
-x = -30 (Subtraction property of equality)
x = 30 (Division property of equality)
To check our work:
4(30)+10 = 130
5(30)-20 = 130
So, the value of x is 30!
