El Sr negron tiene que redactar una serie de cartas en su oficina. A Lourdes le toma 6 horas pasar todas las cartas. A su compañera rosabel, le toma 9 horas en realizar la misma tarea. Si ambas trabajan juntas para hacer todo el trabajo d ela oficina,

a. Cuánto tiempo le tomará a ambas realizar el trabajo?

Answer:

3.6 horas

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea el número total de horas que ambos trabajaron = T

Deje que la cantidad total de letras por las que pasaron = 1

De la pregunta, se nos dice:

Lourdes necesitó 6 horas para revisar las cartas.

Esto significa que, cada 1 hora, Lourdes revisaba 1/6 de las letras

Rosabel tardó 9 horas en leer las letras.

Esto significa que, cada 1 hora, Rosabel revisó 1/9 de las letras

Por lo tanto,

(1/6 × 1) T + (1/9 × 1) T = 1

(1/6 + 1/9) T = 1

(3 + 2/18) T = 1

(18/5) T = 1

5T / 18 = 1

Cruz multiplicar

5T = 18

T = 18/5

T = 3.6 horas

Por lo tanto, les tomó a ambas 3.6 horas hacer el trabajo.

Lana is the oldest of four sisters. Her youngest sister is half her age. The other two sisters are twins $2$ years younger than
vagabundo [1.1K]
Let the youngest sister be n years
Lana will be 2n years, as her youngest sister is half her age
The age of the twins separately will be 2n-2 as they are 2 years younger than Lana
So, the equation looks like this:
n + 2n + 2(2n-2) = 45
Now solve for n:
3n + 4n - 4 = 45
7n - 4 = 45
7n = 49
n = 7
So the youngest sister is 7, Lana is 14 and the twins are 12. 14 + 12 + 12 + 7 =45

Mike and Ike are experts at pitching horseshoes. 70% of Mike's tosses are ringers. 67% of Ike's tosses are ringers. Suppose Mike
ahrayia [7]
Mike tosses 70%
Ike tosses 67%
Both tosses 50%

<span>Which of the following is closest to the probability that Ike's proportion is ringers is higher than Mike's for those tosses?
</span>
P(m) = 70/100
P(i) = 67/100
P(b) = 50/100

= P(b) * P(i) 
= 50/100 * 67/100
= 0.335

The correct answer is letter D) 0.3745.

Which of the following are possible explicit formulas for the nth term of the constant velocity sequence below? Check all that a
oksano4ka [1.4K]
We have an arithmetic progression:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
a₁ is the first term.
n=number of terms.
d=common difference

10,17,24,31...
a₁=10
d=a₂-a₁=17-10=7

Therefore:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
an=10+(n-1)7
an=10+7n-7
an=7n+3.

Therefore: the formula for the nth is, an=a+(n-1), in this case; an=7n+3,

To check:
a₁=7*1+3=10
a₂=7*2+3=17
a₃=7*3+3=24
a₄=7*4+3=31
a₅=7*5+3=38.......
