John ,Rick , and Molli are painting a room together. It takes all of them 16 hours to paint the room to perfection. It takes John 8 hours to paint the room alone , and it takes Rick 2 hours to paint the room alone. What is the hourly rate it take’s of john to paint the room alone?

Answers

Answer 1
John's hourly rate is 1/8 of the room per hour.
Rick's hourly rate is 1/2 of the room per hour.
Molli's hourly rate would be 3/8 of the room per hour.

It takes Molli 2 2/3 hours to paint the room alone.

Explanation
Since John paints the entire room (100%=1) in 8 hours, he would paint 1/8 of the room in 1 hour.
Since Rick paints the entire room (100%=1) in 2 hours, he would paint 1/2 of it in 2 hour.

We do not yet know Molli's rate, so we will call it x.

We know that 1/8+1/2+x = 1 hour.

We will use 8 as a common denominator:
1/8+4/8+8x/8 = 1

Adding the numerators, 
(1+4+8x)/8 = 1

Multiply both sides by 8:
1+4+8x = 8

Add like terms:
5+8x = 8

Subtract 5 from both sides:
5+8x-5=8-5
8x=3

Divide both sides by 8:
8x/8 = 3/8
x = 3/8

Molli's rate is 3/8.

Since she can paint 3/8 of the room in 1 hour, we can set up the equation
3/8x = 1

Divide both sides by 3/8:
3/8x ÷ 3/8 = 1 ÷ 3/8
x = 1/1 ÷ 3/8 = 1/1 × 8/3 = 8/3
x = 2 2/3

This is the amount of time it takes Molli to paint the entire room.
Answer 2

John's hourly rate of painting a room alone is 1/8 of the room per hour, which is calculated from the time he takes to complete the job on his own.

The question asks for the hourly rate at which John can paint a room alone. Knowing that John takes 8 hours to paint the room by himself, we can find his hourly rate by understanding the concept of work rates in combination tasks. Since painting can be considered a task that involves continuous work, the rate at which the room gets painted relates directly to a painter’s work rate, which is the fraction of the room they can paint per hour. For John, his work rate is the reciprocal of the time he takes to paint the room alone, which in this case is 1/8 of the room per hour.

K(x)=10x+5 inverse function

Answers

The inverse of the function is k(x) = [tex] \frac{x - 5}{10} [/tex]


You can find the inverse of any function by switching the k(x) value and the x value. After that, solve for the new k(x). The result will be your inverse function. The step-by-step process is below.


k(x) = 10x + 5 ----> Switch the x and k(x)

x = 10k(x) + 5 ----> Subtract 5 from both sides

x - 5 = 10k(x) ----> Divide both sides by 10.

[tex] \frac{x - 5}{10} [/tex] = k(x) ----> Now switch the order for formatting

k(x) = [tex] \frac{x - 5}{10} [/tex]

Answers

You have the correct integral set up. I'm not sure how you're getting 9780. The correct answer is 9375.0 foot-pounds

The volume of each slice is 6*2*DeltaX cubic feet. So the force pulling down on each slice is 62.5*6*2*DeltaX pounds as this is the weight of the slice. 

The work done to move that slice x feet upward is 62.5*6*2*DeltaX*x or 62.5*6*2x*DeltaX as you wrote for your integrand.

Integrating with respect to x will effectively add up all the horizontal slices to get the total work done

Question 1:

We have been given that a bag contains 7 red marbles, 6 green marbles, 5 yellow marbles, and 2 orange. Further we are given that marbles are drawn twice with a replacement. We need to figure out the probability P(Yellow and Green).

Basically, we need to determine the probability that first marble drawn is yellow and second marble drawn is green.

Probability of first marble drawn being yellow is [tex]\frac{5}{20}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex] and probability of second marble drawn being green is [tex]\frac{6}{20}=\frac{3}{10}[/tex].

Therefore, the probability P(Yellow and Green) = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\cdot \frac{3}{10}=\frac{3}{40}[/tex].

Question 2:

We have been given that a coin is tossed and a number cube is rolled and we need to find the probability P(H, prime number).

Probability of getting head on the coin is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

Probability of getting a prime number on the cube is [tex]\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

Therefore, probability P(H,  prime number) = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

A. 50
B. 20
C. 30
D. 40

Answers

To solve this, you need to create two separate equations and set them equal to each other.

Plan A: y = 2x + 50
Plan B: y = 4x + 10

2x + 50 = 4x + 10

Now solve the combined equation.

2x + 50 = 4x + 10
      - 10          - 10 
 2x + 40 = 4x
-2x           -2x
40 = 2x
x = 20    
you can either graph the following equations, 
Plan A: y=2x+50
Plan B: y=4x+10
and see where they intersect, and that will give you the answer.
OR
You can substitute each answer for x, like this,
A. 50
Plan A:
y=2(50)+50
y=100+50
y=150
Plan B:
y=4x+10
y=4(50)+10
y=200+10
y=210
So, therefore, A.50 is not the answer.
B.20
Plan A:
y=2x+50
y=2(20)+50
y=40+50
y=90
Plan B:
y=4x+10
y=4(20)+10
y=80+10
y=90
So, B.20 is correct but always check the rest of the answers. Just in case
C.30
Plan A:
y=2x+50
y=2(30)+50
y=60+50
y=110
Plan B:
y=4x+10
y=4(30)+10
y=120+10
y=130
So, C.30 is incorrect.
D.40
Plan A:
y=2x+50
y=2(40)+50
y=80+50
y=130
Plan B:
y=4x+10
y=4(40)+10
y=160+10
y=170
So, in conclusion the correct answer is B.20.


A climber is standing at the top of Mount Kazbek, approximately 3.1 miles above sea level. The radius of the Earth is 3959 miles. What is the climber's distance to the horizon?

Answers

I just took a test for K12 with this question. Your answer will be 156.7 miles 

The radius of the earth = OC = OB = 3959 miles

Peak of the Mount Kazbek = A = 3.1 miles

OA = OC + CA

OA = 3959 + 3.1 = 3962.1 miles

As OBA is a right triangle,

[tex] OA^{2} [/tex] = [tex] OB^{2} [/tex] + [tex] AB^{2} [/tex]

[tex] 3962.1^{2} [/tex] = [tex] 3959^{2} [/tex] + [tex] AB^{2} [/tex]

15698236.41 = 15673681 + [tex] AB^{2} [/tex]

[tex] AB^{2} [/tex] = 15698236.41 - 15673681

[tex] AB^{2} [/tex] =24555.41

AB = 156.701659

climber's distance to the horizon is 156.7 miles

The width of a rectangle is 6 kilometers less than twice its length. if its area is 108 square​ kilometers, find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Hi there!

Answer:
length = 9 kilometres
Width = 12 kilometres

Let's solve this problem step by step!
To find our answer we need to set up and solve an equation.

Let the length of the rectangle be represented by x.
The width of the rectangle can therefore be expressed by 2x - 6.

The area of a rectangle can be found by using the formula:
A = width × length

Plug in the data from the formula
A = x (2x - 6).

Simplify using rainbow technique.
[tex]x(2x - 6) = 2 {x}^{2} - 6x[/tex]

Now we've found the simplified expression that expresses the area of the rectangle. Therefore, we can now set up and start solve the equation.

[tex]2 {x}^{2} - 6x = 108[/tex]
Subtract 108

[tex]2 {x}^{2} - 6x - 108 = 0[/tex]
Divide by 2.

[tex] {x}^{2} - 3x - 54[/tex]
[tex](x - 9)(x + 6) = 0[/tex]
Rule AB = 0, gives A is 0 or B is 0.

[tex]x - 9 = 0 \\ x = 9 \\ \\ x + 6 = 0 \\ x = - 6[/tex]

The length of the rectangle, which was represented by x, must be 9 (since it cannot be a negative number).

Length
[tex]x = 9[/tex]
Width
[tex]2x - 6 = 2 \times 9- 6 = 18 - 6 = 12[/tex]

Answer:
length = 9 kilometres
Width = 12 kilometres

Answers

225 different ways, because 3 x 15 x 5 = 225.
Since each size of sundae has 15 flavor choices, we can find the number of combinations by multiplying the size of sundaes with the different ice cream flavors. The same rule can be applied to the number of different toppings, so you can set up this equation:
[tex]3 \times 15 \times 5 = 225[/tex]

Answers

The Pythagorean Theorem.If a and b are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle and c is the length of the hypotenuse, then the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse

By using Pythagoras theorem, length of one leg of triangle can be determined.

Given:

A triangle with length of one leg and the hypotenuse

According to question,

Let the length of one leg of triangle which can be base [tex](b)[/tex] or perpendicular [tex](p)[/tex] and hypotenuse represented by [tex](h)[/tex].

Now, using Pythagoras theorem which states that if a triangle is right-angled ([tex]90[/tex] degrees), then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

From the figure,

In [tex]\Delta AOB, \;\angle O=90^\circ[/tex]

[tex]\rm{H^2=P^2+B^2}\\\rm{AB^2=AO^2+OB^2[/tex]
