24= x+y
X= 3y-8
24= 3y-8+y
24=4y-8
32=4y
Y=8
X=16

Parallel Processing uses two or more computers, working together, to solving a problem. You connect two different computers; com
MrRissso [65]

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)

Consider the following formula used to estimate height, h, of a seedling after w weeks since planting:
svp [43]

Answer:

Option B. w=5h-8

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

h=(\frac{1}{5})w+(\frac{8}{5})

Solve for w

That means ----> isolate the variable w

Multiply by 5 both sides to remove the fraction

5h=w+8

subtract 8 both sides

5h-8=w+8-8

5h-8=w

Rewrite

w=5h-8

A brand new filled can of chicken broth is 12 cm tall and has a radius of 5 cm. Michele uses some of the broth to cook and now t
Natalka [10]
To find the awnser, the equation would be: the volume of the can - the volume left

to find the value,we can use 3.14 for 丌

The volume of the can would be the base area (丌r^2)times it's height,which in this case the volume is:

3.14(5)^2×12
=3.14×25×12
=942 cm³

The volume left:
3.14(5)^2×4
=314cm³

Thus,Mishka used:
942-314
=628 cm³

The answer is 628cm³

Hope it helps!
