Diego and Stacy can paint a doghouse in 5 hours when working together. Diego works twice as fast as Stacy. Let x be the number of hours it would take Diego to paint the doghouse and y be the number
of hours it would take Stacy to paint the doghouse. How long would it take Stacy
to paint the doghouse if she was working alone? How long would it take Diego to paint the doghouse if he was working alone?


Please show steps!

Answers

Answer 1

If Stacy works alone, it will take her 11 hours 40 minutes to paint the doghouse.

If Diego works alone, it will take him 5 hours 40 minutes to paint the doghouse.

How to find how long would it take Stacy and Diego to paint the doghouse while working alone

given data

Diego and Stacy can paint a doghouse in 5 hours

Diego works twice as fast as Stacy

Let x be the number of hours it would take Diego to paint the doghouse and y be the number

Putting the given information mathematically

Diego and Stacy can paint a doghouse in 5 hours

x + y = 5hours

Diego works twice as fast as Stacy

x = 2y

x + y = 5hours

Since x = 2y

2y + y = 5

3y = 5

y = 5/3

y = 1 1/3

from x = 2y

x = 2 * 5/3

x = 10/3

x = 3 1/3

1/3 hours is a fraction of hours. we convert it to minutes by multiplying by 60

= 1/3 * 60

= 20 minutes

Therefore it will take Diego 3 hours 20 minutes and Stacy 1 hour 20 minutes for them to complete a 5 hours work

If Diego works alone

Diego alone = 5 hours + Stacy's hours * 1/2

since Diego is twice faster than Stacy then Stacy's time will be halved

Diego alone = 5 hours + 80 minutes * 1/2

Diego alone = 5 hours + 40 minutes

Diego alone = 5 hours 40 minutes

if Stacy works alone

Stacy alone =  5 hours + Diego's hours * 2

Stacy alone =  5 hours + 3 hours 20 minutes * 2

Stacy alone =  5 hours + 6 hours 40 minutes

Stacy alone = 11 hours 40 minutes

⚠URGENT!!!⚠The larger prism has had two identical holes carved out of it, each of which is a rectangular prism. Find the volume of the remaining solid, writing your answer correct to 2 decimal places. Note that all measurements are in meters.

Volume=_____m^3

Answers

The volume of the remaining solid correct to 2 decimal places is 3634.60 m³

Calculating Volume

From the question, we are to determine the volume of the remaining solid

Volume of the remaining solid = Volume of the larger prism - Volume of the rectangular prisms carved out

First, we will determine the volume of the larger prism

Volume of the larger prism = 17 × 17 × 17

Volume of the larger prism = 4913 m³

Now, we will determine the volume of one of the rectangular prism that was carved out

Volume = 4 × 9.4 × 17

Volume = 639.2 m³

∴ Volume of the two identical holes carved out = 2 × 639.2 m³

= 1278.4 m³

Thus,

Volume of the remaining solid = 4913 m³ - 1278.4 m³

Volume of the remaining solid = 3634.60 m³

h(9)

If x = 1, then;

h(x)= |1 - 7(1)|

h(1) = |1-7|

h(1) = |-6|

Solve the simultaneous equations 4 x + 3 y = − 10 4 x + y = − 14

Answers

Answer:

x = - 4, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First equation: 4x + 3y = - 10

Second equation: 4x+y= - 14

To solve simultaneously:

Rearrange one of the equations and substitute the equation to another equation, I prefer rearranging the second equation because it is easier.

Rearranging the second equation to get y, and then substitute back to the first equation to find x:

y = - 14 - 4x ------> new second equation

Substitute y (new second equation) into the first equation to find x:

4x +3(-14 -4x) = - 10

4x - 42 - 12 x = - 10

       - 8x - 42 = -10

                -8x = - 10 + 42

               - 8x = 32

                 8x = - 32

                   x = - 4

Now we substitute x = - 4 to the second equation to find y:

4x + y = - 14

y = - 14 - 4(-4)

y = - 14 - (-16)

y = - 14 + 16

y = 2

Based on the equation of the line that is parallel to the first line, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = 3/4x - 6³/₄

How to write the equation?

First, find the slope of 3x + 4y = 7:
( 3x + 4y = 7) x 1/4

3/4x + y = 7/4

The slope is therefore 3/4x.

Lines that are parallel to each other have the same slope. You can therefore use this slope to find the formula of the other line by first solving for the y-intercept:
y = Slope(x) + y-intercept

What is area of rectangle?

Area of rectangle is the region occupied by a rectangle within its four sides or boundaries.

The area of a rectangle depends on its sides. Basically, the formula for area is equal to the product of length and breadth of the rectangle.

Let x be the width of the rectangle.

Length of the rectangle = x+8

Area of the rectangle = x(x+8)

According to question, new width= x+2

New length = x+2+8 = x+10

New area = (x+2)(x+10)

Area increased = (x+2)(x+10) – x(x+8)

x^2+12x+20-x^2-8x=68

A pair of shoes usually sells for $68 if the shoes are 40% off and sales tax is 6% what is the total price of the shoes including tax

Answers

Usual selling price of a pair of shoes is $68 with discount 40% and sales tax 6% then total price of shoes including tax is equal to $43.248.

As given in the question,

Given that:

Usual selling price of shoes = $68

Discount on shoes =40%

Discounts an amount or percentage from something that they are selling, they take the amount or percentage off the usual price.

so, remove 40% from the price and you have left 60%

reduced price = 60% of $68

                         =60/100 * 68 = $40.8

Sales tax is 6% of reduced price= 6% of $40.8

                                           =$2.448 upto 3 decimal digits

Now , price including tax =$40.8+$2.448 =$43.248

Hence, total price including tax= $43.248

Therefore, usual selling price of a pair of shoes is $68 with discount 40% and sales tax 6% then total price of shoes including tax is equal to $43.248.
