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)

Sample response: <span>Yes, the fan will provide enough airflow. The volume of the ranger station is 720 cubic feet. The ranger station requires a 720 CFM fan. 1,500 CFM is greater than 720 CFM, so it will be enough airflow.</span>
1) the form of the equation may be written as y = A(X - Xo)(X - X1)
Where Xo and X1 are the two roots of the equation.
2) We can fix the system of coordinates so that the vertex is in the middle of the gate => Xo = - 40 and X1 = +40
=> y = A (X + 40) (X - 40) = A (X^2 - 1600)
3) The height, at X = 0 is 25
=> A(0 - 1600) = 25
=> -1600A = 25 => A = -25 / 1600 = - 1/64
4) The equation is y = - [1/64] (X^2 - 1600)
5) You can present it in different equivalent forms.
Some of those other forms are:
1) - 64y = (x^2 - 1600)
2) x^2 = - 64y + 1600
3) X^2 = - 64 (y - 25)
This is the concept of algebra, given that the elevator is 500ft above the ground and it is descending at a steady rate of 5ft/sec. Then height h, at time t of the elevator movement can be modeled by the equation:
h(t)=-5t+500.
The correct answer is h(t)=-5t+500
Answer:
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = 0.514
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the event that the captain hits the pirate ship
The probability of the captain hitting the pirate ship, P(A) = 3/5
Let B be the event that the pirate hits the captain's ship
The probability of the pirate hitting the captain's ship P(B) = 1/7
The probability of the pirate missing the captain's ship, P'(B) = 1 - P(B)
P'(B) = 1 - 1/7 = 6/7
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = P(A) * P(B) = 3/5 * 6/7
= 0.514
