You can wash a car 1.5 times as fast as your friend. Working together, the two of you can wash 1 car in 6 minutes. How long does it take each of you to wash the car when working alone? Leave your answer as a fraction!

Answers

Answer 1

If the two of you can wash 1 car in 6 minutes:

It will take you 10 minutes to wash the car alone

take your friend 15 minutes to wash the car alone

Let the duration you can work be represented by y

Let the duration your friend can work be represented by x

You can wash a car 1.5 times as fast as your friend

That is, y = 1.5x

Working together, the two of you can wash 1 car in 6 minutes

This can be represented by the equation

[tex]\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Substitute x = 1.5y into the equation above

[tex]\frac{1}{1.5y}+\frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{6}\\\\\frac{1+1.5}{1.5y} = \frac{1}{6}\\\\\frac{2.5}{1.5y} = \frac{1}{6}\\\\1.5y=2.5(6)\\\\1.5y=15\\\\y=\frac{15}{1.5} \\\\y=10[/tex]

It will take you 10 minutes to wash the car alone

Substitute y = 10 into x = 1.5y

x  =  1.5(10)

x  =  15 minutes

It will take your friend 15 minutes to wash the car alone

Surface of[tex]35,875.86 cm^2[/tex]

Voliume of [tex]234,671.58 cm^3[/tex]

Long and painful calculations

Ok, this is going to take some time. The volume is the sum of all the solids, minus the half cylinder that makes the "tunnel" beneath it. That said, we can split the item into 3 main shapes, and the cylinder: The pyramid in the top left, the square based prism below the pyramid, and the trapezoid prism to the right. I edited a bit the image with paint to add measurements. It's paint so quality is what it is and deal with comic sans as a font.

Let's find the total surface first. We have the surface of the four faces of the pyramid, which are triangles of base 54 and height (red line)[tex]\sqrt{36^2+(\frac{54}2)^2} =\sqrt{2025}=45cm[/tex], givins us a total area of [tex]4\times \frac{bh}2 = 2\times 45\times 54 = 4860 cm^2[/tex]

We add the two lateral faces of the left prism: they are two rectangles of side length 70 and 54, for a total area of [tex]2(70)(54) = 7580 cm^2[/tex]

Take the rectangle to the side of the prism, of sides 54 and 70-34 = 36, giving an area of [tex]54\times 36 = 1944 cm^2[/tex]

Pick the inclined "roof" of the right prism, again a rectangles, sides 54 and 61: surface is [tex]3294 cm^2[/tex]

Two side faces of the right building: first pick the height (magenta line), with pythagorean theorem again, equal to [tex]\sqrt{ 61^2-11^2} = \sqrt{3600} = 60 cm[/tex]. The surface becomes [tex]2 \frac{(B+b)h}2 = (34+45)(60)= 4740 cm^2[/tex]

Missing the short sides and the half cylinder making the gallery. The sides - if you imagine un-hinging one and attaching to the bottom of the other - will make a rectangle of sides (45+70) cm and 54 cm with a circular hole in the middle. surface is [tex](45+70)\times54 - \pi(54/2)^2 =[/tex][tex]3920.94 cm^2[/tex].

Finally, the half cylinder. It's a "rectangle) tall (60+54) cm - the length of the whole contraption, and long half the circle, or [tex]27\pi[/tex]. It's surface is  [tex](60+54)\times\27\pi = 9664.92 cm^2[/tex]

Done with surfaces. At this point we just add everything together. Grab a calculator and start adding up, if I didn't miss anything the total surface will be [tex]35875.86 cm^2[/tex]

Volumes now. You wished this was over? I totally did.

Bulk of the calculations are done luckly. It's just to cut and paste here and there.

Pyramid first. We know the side length, we know the height, volume is the usual formula

[tex]\frac 13l^2h = \frac 13 54^2\times 36= 33,048 cm^3[/tex]

Cube beneath. This one is also easy Sides are 54cm, 54cm and 70cm, volume is their product:

[tex]54*54*70= 204,120 cm^3[/tex]

Side prism now: again base surface times height, let's use the trapezoid as a base since we already have the area from above:

[tex]A_th = 2370\times54 = 127,980 cm^3[/tex]

From this we take half a cylinder of radius 27 tall as the whole structure is long. [tex]\frac12 \pi r^2h = \frac12 \pi (27)^2(60+54) = 130,476.42 cm^3[/tex]

We're done. Let's add the volume of the first 3 solids and subtract the last one - hope you have your calculator handy, to get in total a volume of [tex]234,671.58 cm^3[/tex]

Answer:

x < 12/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute 5 among everything inside the parenthesis to get 5x + 17 > 10x + 5.

Next, subtract 5 on both sides to get

5x + 12 > 10x.

Afterwards, subtract the 5x on both sides to get 12 > 5x.

Finally, divide 5 on both sides to get 12/5 > x (You can always flip it around so that the x is on the other side btw.) Answer is written above⤴⤴⤴.

Answer:

6 is no, -8 is no, - 10 is no, 5 is no

Step-by-step explanation:

6 is no beacause 3 - 4(6) = 11

                            3 - 24 = 11

                               -21 = 11

-21 is not equal to 11 so that means that 6 is not a solution.

- 8 is no because 3 - 4(- 8) = 11

                             3 + 32 = 11

                                  35 = 11

35 is not equal to 11 so that means that - 8 is no a solution

- 10 is no beacause 3 - 4(-10) = 11

                            3 + 40 = 11

                               43 = 11

43 is not equal to 11 so that means that - 10 is not a solution.

5 is no beacause 3 - 4(5) = 11

                            3 - 20 = 11

                               -17 = 11

-17 is not equal to 11 so that means that 5 is not a solution.

Hope that helps!

What is the exponential function?

Exponential function, as its name suggests, involves exponents. But note that, an exponential function has a constant as its base and a variable as its exponent but not the other way round (if a function has a variable as the base and a constant as the exponent then it is a power function but not an exponential function).

From the graph,

All the values of the graph are positive values (even for the negative values of x), but in the left side we can see that the function decreases and is different than the right side.

So this is not an even function, then n must be an odd number (n odd allows us to have negative values for y = f(x) that happen when x + k is negative).

Also, we can see that the function increases, if n was a negative number, like: n = -N

We would have: [tex]f(x)=\frac{a}{(x+k)^{\frac{1}{N} }} +c[/tex]

So in this case x is in the denominator, so as x increases, we would see that the value of y decreases, but that does not happen, so we can conclude that the value of n must be positive.

Then n is a positive odd number.

Therefore, n is a positive odd number.

13. 1800 is the total degrees inside a dodecagon, and since it is regular (every side is equal) you divide 1800/12 to get 150

15. 1260 is the total degrees inside a nonagon however since it is asking for the exterior angle you take 1260/9 to get 140 and since every straight line is 180 degrees you subtract 140 from 180 to get 40 degrees.

16. 1800 is the total degrees inside a 12-gon (dodecagon) however since it is asking for the exterior angle you divide 1800/12 to get 150 degrees which since every straight line is 180 you subtract 150 from 180 to get 30 degrees.

make y the subject of the formula
x=13(t-4y) over y

Answers

Answer:

make y the subject of the formula

x=13(t-4y)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+c  

⟹(y)−c=(mx+c)−c  

⟹y−c=mx+(+c−c)  

⟹y−c=mx+0  

⟹y−c=mx  

⟹mx=y−c  

⟹mx×(1m)=(y−c)×(1m)  

⟹x×(mm)=1m(y−c)  

⟹x×1=1m(y−c)  

⟹x=1m(y−c)

The subject of the formula for y is y = 13t / x(1 + 52/x).

What is the equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

We have been given the equation as:

x = 13(t - 4y) / y

We have to make y the subject of the formula

x = 13(t - 4y) / y

Cross multiplication to get,

y = 13(t - 4y) / x

y = (13t - 52y) / x

y = 13t / x - 52y / x

Now group the y terms together and we get

y + 52y / x = 13t / x

The factor out the y to get

y(1 + 52/x) = 13t / x

y = 13t / x(1 + 52/x)

Therefore, the subject of the formula for y is y = 13t / x(1 + 52/x).

The automobile has had more of an impact on American life than any other mode of transportation. The automobile has changed where people live, how people work, and how people view one another.In the early 20th century, people who worked in cities had to live in those cities. People lived in crowded apartments with very little room for their families. When the automobile became available to the masses, people were able to move outside of cities to live. The automobile is what led to the growth and development of the suburbs. People began building homes on the outskirts of cities. Soon these places became communities with roads, police stations, and restaurants. This helped create jobs in those areas. People could choose whether they wanted to drive their car to work in the city or closer to home. Either way, this choice and way of life would not be possible without the automobile.Cities were not the only areas affected by cars. The invention of the automobile helped increase farm production and distribution. Before the invention of the car, farmers used horses to travel. They were limited to only traveling 1520 miles. Now, with cars and later trucks, farmers could deliver their products many miles away. This meant that more people could buy their products, and the farmer could earn more money. This also meant that people could enjoy produce that was not locally grown. Cars did not only have positive impacts on American society. The invention of the car created a new class system for Americans. In the early 20th century, only the wealthy were able to own cars. Over time, cars became status symbols. Some cars were created simply as a symbol of wealth and class. That is still the case today. Cars have also created more pollution. The gasoline that cars need to run has negatively affected the air. The more cars there are, the more polluted the air becomes.The invention of the car has changed how people live in both positive and negative ways. This cannot be said for any other mode of transportation. Although ships and planes have made travel more convenient, they have not impacted a person's everyday life in the same way as cars.Select the line from the article that supports the author's claim that cars helped invent the suburb.
