Using the together rate, it is found that:
It takes 3 hours for the first handyman to do the home repair individually.It takes 6 hours for the second handyman.The together rate is the sum of each separate rate.
In this problem, we have that:
The together rate is of [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].The first man takes x hours, hence his rate is of [tex]\frac{1}{x}[/tex]The second man takes x + 3 hours, hence his rate is of [tex]\frac{1}{x + 3}[/tex]Applying the together rate:
[tex]\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x + 3} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x + 3 + x}{x(x + 3)} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]4x + 6 = x^2 + 3x[/tex]
[tex]x^2 - x - 6 = 0[/tex]
Which is a quadratic equation with coefficients [tex]a = 1, b = -1, c = -6[/tex], hence:
[tex]\Delta = b^2 - 4ac = (-1)^2 - 4(1)(-6) = 25[/tex]
[tex]x_1 = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a} = \frac{1 + \sqrt{25}}{2} = 3[/tex]
[tex]x_2 = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a} = \frac{1 - \sqrt{25}}{2} = -2[/tex]
We are interested into the positive root, then [tex]x = 3[/tex], [tex]x + 3 = 6[/tex], which means that:

Step-by-step explanation:
The upper right angle is supplement to 130° and a corresponding angle to (3x + 5)
130 + (3x + 5) = 180
3x + 5 = 50
3x = 45
x = 15
For what values of k
If y = cos(kt), then its first two derivatives are
y' = -k sin(kt)
y'' = -k² cos(kt)
Substituting y and y'' into 49y'' = -16y gives
-49k² cos(kt) = -15 cos(kt)
⇒ 49k² = 15
⇒ k² = 15/49
⇒ k = ±√15/7
Note that both values of k give the same solution y = cos(√15/7 t) since cosine is even.
a linear function yand x has graduent -6/7 and y-intercept 8. write down the equation of the function.
Answer:
y = - 6/7x + 8Step-by-step explanation:
The slope- intercept form is:
y = mx + b, where m is the slope (or gradient) and b is the y-interceptWe have:
m = - 6/7 and b = 8The line is:
y = - 6/7x + 8!!!! Which equation represents the graph shown? PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
Answer:
y= 2x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form
y= mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the slope.
Since all the slope in the options are the same, let's focus on the y-intercept. From the graph, the line cuts through the y-axis at y= 1. Thus, the y- intercept is 1.
Hence, y= 2x +1 is the correct option.
Extra notes:
[tex]\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{1} - y_2 }{x_1 - x_2} }[/tex]
A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes. If the population starts with 10 organisms, how long would it take for the population to grow to 700 organisms?
Answer:
between 1hr 30 and 1hr 45
Step-by-step explanation:
10*2=20 15
20*2=40 30
40*2=80 45
80*2=160 60
160*2=320 1hr 15
320*2=640 1hr 30
In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.
Given that,
A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.
If the population starts with 10 organisms.
We have to determine,
How long would it take for the population to grow to 700 organisms?
According to the question,
A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.
If the population starts with 10 organisms.
In 15 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 10 organisms.
[tex]\rm = 10 \times 2 = 20 \ bacteria[/tex]
In 15 minutes 20 bacteria for the population to grow.
In 30 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 20 organisms.
[tex]\rm = 20 \times 2 = 40 \ bacteria[/tex]
In 30 minutes 40 bacteria for the population to grow.
In 45 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 40 organisms.
[tex]\rm = 40 \times 2 = 80 \ bacteria[/tex]
In 45 minutes 80 bacteria for the population to grow.
In 60 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 80 organisms.
[tex]\rm = 80 \times 2 = 160 \ bacteria[/tex]
In 60 minutes 160 bacteria for the population to grow.
In 75 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 160 organisms.
[tex]\rm = 160 \times 2 = 320 \ bacteria[/tex]
In 75 minutes 320 bacteria for the population to grow.
In 90 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 320 organisms.
[tex]\rm = 320 \times 2 = 640 \ bacteria[/tex]
In 90 minutes 640 bacteria for the population to grow.
In 120 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 640 organisms.
[tex]\rm = 640 \times 2 = 1280 \ bacteria[/tex]
In 120 minutes 1280 bacteria for the population to grow.
Hence, In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

I’m not sure how to solve this, anyone know?
Answer:
A' = (-4, 7)
B' = (3, 5)
C' = (1, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is asking you to translate the function by adding 4 to the x-value of each point and 2 to the y-value of each point.
I didn't double-check my math, but since the question is asking for an ordered pair, this should be correct.
Your friend says that the equations y - 9 = -5(x + 2) and y = -5x – 19 represent two different lines. Is your friend correct? Explain.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The second equation is y = -5x - 19
The first equation needs a little work
y - 9 = -5(x + 2) Remove the brackets
y - 9 = -5x - 10 Add 9 to both sides.
y = -5x -10 + 9 Combine
y = - 5x - 1
There are two lines there. They are parallel, but they never cross. The y intercepts are not equal and they don't lie on top of each other.
-2(x+1)= -2+5
How you solve that?
[tex]-2(x+1) = -2+5\\\\\implies -2x -2 = 3\\\\\implies -2x = 3 +2 =5\\\\\implies x = - \dfrac 52[/tex]
Add the numbers, then add 2 to both sides of the equation. The solution would be x = - 5/2

15=x/4 - 3 how do i solve
Answer: the answer is x=72
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: simplify both sides we know 15=x/4 -3 (the x holds a invisible 1)
the equation should look something Like: 15=1/4x-3 then FLIP the equation such as:
1/4x-3=15 then add 3 on both sides so 15+3=18
step 2: our equation is now 1/4x=18 (we see 4 is being divided the opposite of division is multiply) therefor multiply the 18 with 4
18*4=72 which means x=72

A mother earned $8750 from royalties on her cookbook. She set aside 20% of this for a down payment on a new home. The balance will be used for her son's future education. She invests a portion of the money in a bank certificate of deposit (CD account) that earns 4% and the remainder in a savings bond that earns 7%. If the total interest earned after one year is $420, how much money was invested at each rate?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement is not clear regarding which money is invested. We will assume it is the 80% of $8750 that is set aside for future education. That amount is
... 0.80 × $8750 = $7000
If x represents the amount invested at 7%, then the total interest earned is
... (7000 -x)×4% + (x)×7% = 420
... 280 +0.03x = 420
... x = 140/0.03 ≈ 4666.67
$4666.67 was invested at 7%.
$2333.33 was invested at 4%.
The width of a rectangle is represented by 5 1 2y.
The length is twice as long as the width. What is the
perimeter of the rectangle?
Answer:
33y
Step-by-step explanation:
since the equation of perimeter for a rectangle is lengthX2 + widthX2
and the width is given to be 5 1/2y is it? If it is so then the length will be 11y since 2X5 1/2y is 11y
and the perimeter will then be calculated as so;
11yX2 + 5 1/2yX2
so it will be 22y+11y which will give you 33y

Match the expression to the method needed to evaluate (will give brainlest)
Answer:
See image
Step-by-step explanation:
This is to help you practice exponent rules. The rules are short cuts, which are good bc they're faster but bad bc they take away the meaning of the work. If you're trying to remember a rule, think through the meaning. See image.
So, "multiply exponents" and "product of powers" are basic two equivalent phrases! I think the answers on the image should work, but jic if not switch those two.
The Add exponents rule and Subtract are 100% correct.
The expressions are matched to the method needed to evaluate as shown below.
What are Expressions?Expressions are mathematical statements which consist of two or more terms and terms are connected to each other using mathematical operators like addition, multiplication, subtraction and so on.
The first expression is 5³ × 5³.
Multiplication rule of exponents states that,
xᵃ × xᵇ = xᵃ⁺ᵇ
That is we add the exponents.
So, 5³ × 5³ = 5³⁺³ = 5⁶
The next expression is (7²)³.
We have the rule, (xᵃ)ᵇ = xᵃᵇ
So, here, multiply the exponents.
(7²)³ = 7⁶
(4x³)⁵
We can write it as,
(4x³)⁵ = 4⁵ . (x³)⁵
That is write is as product of the powers.
Division rule of exponents states that,
xᵃ / xᵇ = xᵃ⁻ᵇ
6⁹ / 6⁵ = 6⁹⁻⁵ = 6⁴
So, subtract the exponents.
Hence the expressions are matched.
