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

For what values of x is the trionomial 2x^2-x+55 equal to the square of bionomial x+5?
Answer:
[tex]x_1= 6, x_2=5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Well well well, let's write it down as an equation
[tex]2x^2-x+55 = (x+5)^2[/tex]
And then let's just do what's asking us to do
[tex]2x^2-x+55 = x^2+10x+25\\x^2-11x+30=0[/tex]At this point, it's quadratic formula time. Let's first calculate [tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex] to simplify the process
[tex]\Delta = 121-4(1)(30) = 121-120=1[/tex]
[tex]x= \frac{11\pm1}{2}; x_1= 6, x_2=5[/tex]

As a civil engineer, you are drafting the plans
for a new water treatment plant. The water
mains for this plant measure 48 inches in
diameter. At each joint between pipes in the
main, a strip of rubber will be bonded to the
outside of the pipe joint to improve the seal.
About how long will the rubber seal be when
it is trimmed to fit around the pipe?
The distance around a circle is the circumference.
Circumference = Pi x diameter.
Circumference = 3.14 x 48
Circumference = 150.72 inches
Round the answer as needed.

Lee is creating a garden with the dimensions shown.
Lines are drawn inside a large triangle at each point to create smaller triangles. Line A B is drawn to create a triangle that has 2 sides with a length of 8 feet. The angle opposite to A B is 36 degrees. Line Z Y is drawn to create a triangle that has 2 sides with a length of 8 feet. The angle opposite to Z Y is 65 degrees. Line X Y is drawn to create a triangle that has 2 sides with a length of 8 feet. The angle opposite to X Y is 79 degrees.
He creates paths through the garden along Line segment A B, Line segment X Y, and Line segment Z Y. Which correctly compares the lengths of the paths?
The path along Line segment X Y is longer than the path along Line segment Z Y, and the path along Line segment Z Y is longer than the path along Line segment A B.
The path along Line segment A B is longer than the path along Line segment Z Y, and the path along Line segment Z Y is longer than the path along Line segment X Y.
The path along Line segment Z Y is longer than the path along Line segment X Y, and the path along Line segment X Y is longer than the path along Line segment A B.
The path along Line segment Z Y is longer than the path along Line segment A B, and the path along Line segment A B is longer than the path along Line segment X Y.

The ratio of students in Class X to Class Y is 2 : 5. There are 24 more students in Class Y than Class X. How many students must transfer from Class Y to Class X so that both classes have equal number of students?
Answer:
The answer will be 12 students. 12 students must transfer from Class Y to Class X so that both classes have equal number of students.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the ratio is 2 : 5, we would multiply both number to 8 and get 16 : 40.
Now find the average of those two numbers: (16 + 40) / 2 which gets you 28. Now either subtract 16 from 28 or subtract 28 from 40 and you will get 12.
28 - 16 = 12 students
40 - 28 = 12 students.
How many times in a 24-hour day will the hour and minute hands of a 12-hour analog clock form a 90-degree angle
Answer:
44
Step-by-step explanation:
In other words, the minute hand "overtakes" the hour hand on 44 occasions in 24 hours in order to give a 90 degree angle. Therefore the answer to your question is 44.
Answer:
the answer would be eight
Step-by-step explanation: it would hit the first 90 degree angle when the hour is at twelve and the minutes at 15 then 12 and 45 then 3 and 30 and three and 12 then 6 and 15 and six and 30 then 9 and 30 then 9 and 12 .
. Write the equation of a line passing through the points (3,-1) and (6,7).
(Hint - Use the Calculator)
Step-by-step explanation:
the most usual firm of line equation is
y = ax + b
a is the slope of the line and is expressed as the ratio
y coordinate change / x coordinate change
when going from one point to the other.
b is the y-interception (the bake of y when x = 0).
once we have the slope, we get b by using the coordinates of one of the given points as x and y in the equation and solve for b.
the slope a :
x changes by +3 (from 3 to 6)
y changes by +8 (from -1 to 7)
so, the slope is +8/+3 = 8/3
our line equation now looks like
y = (8/3)x + b
let's simply use the first point
-1 = (8/3)×3 + b
-1 = 24/3 + b = 8 + b
-9 = b
and the full line equation is
y = (8/3)x - 9
