A and B can do a piece of work in 12 days; B and C can do it in 15 days while C and A can finish it in 20 days. In how many days will A, B and C finish it, working together? In how many days will each of them finish it working alone?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It takes A 30 days to finish the work aloneIt takes B 20 days to finish the work aloneIt takes C 60 days to finish the work alone

Working together, it takes them 10 days to finish the work

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

[tex]\frac{1}{A} + \frac{1}{B} =\frac{1}{12} \\\\\frac{1}{B} + \frac{1}{C} = \frac{1}{15}\\\\\frac{1}{A} + \frac{1}{C} = \frac{1}{20}\\\\[/tex]

From given equations above;

[tex]\frac{1}{A} +\frac{1}{B} = \frac{1}{12}\\\\But, \frac{1}{B} =\frac{1}{15} -\frac{1}{C}\\\\ \frac{1}{A} +\frac{1}{15} -\frac{1}{C}= \frac{1}{12}\\\\Also, \frac{1}{C} = \frac{1}{20} -\frac{1}{A} \\\\ \frac{1}{A} +\frac{1}{15} -(\frac{1}{20} -\frac{1}{A})= \frac{1}{12}\\\\ \frac{1}{A} +\frac{1}{15} -\frac{1}{20} +\frac{1}{A}= \frac{1}{12}\\\\ \frac{1}{A} +\frac{1}{A} = \frac{1}{12} +\frac{1}{20}-\frac{1}{15}\\\\\frac{2}{A} = \frac{300+ 180-240}{3600} \\\\\frac{2}{A} =\frac{240}{3600}\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2}{A} = \frac{1}{15} \\\\A = 30 \ days[/tex]

solve for B;

[tex]\frac{1}{A} + \frac{1}{B} = \frac{1}{12}\\\\ \frac{1}{B} = \frac{1}{12} - \frac{1}{A} \\\\ \frac{1}{B} = \frac{1}{12} - \frac{1}{30}\\\\ \frac{1}{B} =\frac{5-2}{60} \\\\ \frac{1}{B} =\frac{3}{60}\\\\B = 20 \ days[/tex]

Solve for C;

[tex]\frac{1}{C} =\frac{1}{20} -\frac{1}{A}\\\\ \frac{1}{C} = \frac{1}{20} -\frac{1}{30}\\\\ \frac{1}{C} =\frac{3-2}{60} \\\\ \frac{1}{C} =\frac{1}{60}\\\\C = 60 \ days[/tex]

When they work together;

[tex]\frac{1}{A} +\frac{1}{B} +\frac{1}{C} =\frac{1}{y} \\\\\frac{1}{30} +\frac{1}{20} +\frac{1}{60} = \frac{1}{y}\\\\\frac{2+ 3+ 1}{60} =\frac{1}{y}\\\\\frac{6}{60} =\frac{1}{y}\\\\y = 10\ days[/tex]

Find the simple interest earned for principal of $2,000 at and 8% rate for 5 years.

Answers

Answer:

$2800.00

Step-by-step explanation:

A total accrued amount 800 = principal (P) $2000 + interest (I)

R Rate of interest per year decimal - 0.08

X Rate of interest per year percentage - 8%

T time period months or years - 5 years

Equation will be A = P (1 + RT)

first convert X to R = percentage to decimal

X = R/100 = 8%/100 = 0.08 per year

Solving:

A = 2000 (1 + (0.08 x 5)) = 2800

A = $2800

Esmeralda received a bag of jellybeans that contained a mixture of regular flavored jellybeans and "surprise" jellybeans. The bag advertised that 15% of the jellybeans were "surprise" flavors. If she counted 40 jellybeans in the bag, how many should she expect to be the "surprise" jellybeans?

Answers

Answer:

6 jellybean

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Esmeralda received a bag of jellybean the contains regular flavored jelly beans and surprise jelly bean.

Consider the regular flavored jellybean to be = r;  &

The surprise jelly bean.= s

From the bag, there are 40 jellybeans of which 15% is surprise jellybean.

Therefore the number of expected surprise jellybeans is:

= total number of jellybeans × percentage of surprise jellybean

= 40 × (15 /100)

= 6 jellybean

If  6 surprise jellybean is presented in the bag; then the number of regular flavored jellybean = 40 - 6 = 34 regular flavored jellybean

Ana decides to start a lemonade stand. She goes to the store to buy her supplies, and those cost her $50. The city of Richmond also requires anna to pay a fee of $5 per day to set up lemonade stand at the park. Write the equation for her total cost (c) in terms of (d) days.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]c=5d+50[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Supplies of the lemonade bought at price = $50

Money paid per day to setup lemonade stand at the park = $5

To find:

Equation of her total cost.

Solution:

Let the number of days = [tex]d[/tex]

Per day cost of setting up the lemonade stand is given as $5.

If the number of days are [tex]d[/tex], then the cost of [tex]d[/tex] days can be found by multiplying the per day cost with the number of days.

Therefore, the expression for cost for [tex]d[/tex] number of days = [tex]\$5d[/tex]

Total cost for [tex]d[/tex] number of days can be found by adding the cost of supplies and cost for [tex]d[/tex] number of days for setting up the stand:

[tex]c=5d+50[/tex]

1: A man owns 50 shares of stock worth $30 each. The corporation declared a dividend of 6% payable in stock. How many shares did he then own?

Answers

Answer:

53 shares

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for how many SHARES did he then own

Using this formula

Numbers of shares=[ (Dividend percentage payable in stock ×Shares of stock)+Shares of stock]

Let plug in the formula

Numbers of shares= [(.06 x 50 shares)+50 shares]

Numbers of shares= 3 + 50 shares

Numbers of shares = 53 shares

Therefore How many shares did he then own is 53 shares

Solve the equation for a.

K = 4a + 9ab

a = K(4 + 9b)
a = 4(K + 9b)
a = a equals StartFraction 4 plus 9 b Over K EndFraction equals h.
a = a equals StartFraction K Over 4 plus 9 b EndFraction equals h.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a= \frac{k}{9b+4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you would solve for "a".

Solve:

K = 4a + 9ab

Since we have our "a" on the same side, we can factor it out from the variables:

K = a(9b + 4)

To get "a" by itself, we would have to divide both sides by 9b + 4:

K/9b+ 4 = a

Your answer would be K/9b+ 4 = a

It would look like this: [tex]a= \frac{k}{9b+4}[/tex]

Answer:

it's a = K / 4 + 9b

A wall 15 m long, 30 cm wide and 4 m high is made of bricks, each measuring
22 cm x 12.5 cm x 7.5 cm . If 1/12 of the total volume of the wall consists of mortar, how many
12
bricks are there in the wall​

Answers

l = 15m = 1500cm
b= 30cm
h= 4m= 400cm



So, total volume of the wall= l×b×h
= 1500×30×400= 1,80,00,000 cm^3


Now, volume of one brick= 22×12.5×7.5= 2062.5 cm^3


Volume of wall containing only bricks= total volume of the wall - volume of wall containing mortar
= 1,80,00,000 - (1,80,00,000 × 1/12)
= 1,65,00,000 cm^3


So, no. of bricks = volume of wall containing bricks ÷ volume of one brick
= 1,65,00,000 ÷ 2062.5
= 8000 bricks.

What is the solutions of the following system of equations.

y = -2x + 2

y = x - 1

Answers

Answer:

x = 1, y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = - 2x + 2 → (1)

y = x - 1 → (2)

Substitute y = x - 1 into (1)

x - 1 = - 2x + 2 ( add 2x to both sides )

3x - 1 = 2 ( add 1 to both sides )

3x = 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y

Substituting into (2)

y = 1 - 1 = 0

Solution is (1, 0 )
