lisa an experienced shipping​ clerk, can fill a certain order in 7 hours. ​bill, a new​ clerk, needs
8 hours to do the same job. Working​ together, how long will it take them to fill the​ order?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3.73 hours

Explanation:

In 1 hour, Lisa does 1/7th of the order while Bill does 1/8th of the order in an hour. To find out how long it will take them to fill the order, we have to:

Step 1:

Add the rate of both Lisa and Bill together

1/7 + 1/8

Step 2:

Since both denominators of the fractions are different, you have to find the least common multiple of 7 and 8

7·8= 56    8·7= 56

which is 56.

Step 3:

Then, you have to multiply the numerator of 1/7 with 8 and the numerator of 1/8 with 7.

1·8= 8    1·7= 7

The fractions would now have equal denominators:

Lisa: 8/56    Bill: 7/56

Step 4:

Now, you can add them together

8/56 + 7/56

which equals to 15/56. Both Lisa and Bill together completes 15/56th of the order in 1 hour.

Step 5:

15/56 is not the final answer as it is the RATE of them working together. To find how long it will take them total to complete the order, you must divide 56 with 15.

56/15

which is 3.73 hours in decimal form (rounded).

Answer:

Width: 9.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to convert the 1 foot to 12 inches.

New Dimensions: 12in x 4in x ?in

We multiply the 12 by 4 and we get 48.

Now we divide 456 by 48.

We get: 9.5

for a repair job an electrician charges an hourly rate of d dollars plus a flat fee of 50 the electricion charged a total if 114 for a 4-hour repair job. Part B. What is the value of D

Answers

Answer:

B. 4d + 50 = 114

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Hourly rate = $d/hr

Flat fee = $50

Charge for the 4hrs = $114

Number of hours = 4hrs

To find d;

    Total cost  = $114;

             $114  = Flat fee + (rate per hour x number of hours)

            $114 = $50 + 4d

The value of d can be calculate using;

           4d + 50 = 114

The value of d is 4d + 50 = 114

express 7.84684846 as a rational number in the form p/q were p and q have no common factors

Answers

It's not clear what the pattern is supposed to be for the digits in the givne number. It looks like the repeating block should be 846, but it could just as easily be 84684.

Assume the first case, and let x = 7.846846846... . Then

1000x = 7846.846846846...

Subtract x from this to cancel the repeating decimal part, then solve for x :

999x = 7846 - 7 = 7839

x = 7839/999 = 871/111

If instead you meant the second case, let x = 7.846848468484684... . Then

10⁵ x = 784,684.846848468484684...

Solve for x :

99,999 x = 784,684 - 7 = 784,677

x = 784,677/99,999 = 261,559/33,333

Maybe you meant something else altogether?

Find a pattern, then select the next two terms of the sequence.

5, 1, 7, 0, 9, –1, 11, . . .

Answers

Answer:

-2 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

the pattern here is annoying to find, but there is one. the first change is -4, then +6, then -7, then +9. The pattern starts at -4, then after that it increases by 2 and changes from a negative to a positive (and can change the other way). After that change it increases by one and changes from a positive to a negative. Essiently, the pattern is add 2 to the pattern and change the sign, then add 1 to the pattern after that and change the sign, infinitely repeating, with the two after 11 being -2 (gotten from +12 because you add 2 to -10 and change the sign) and 13 (gotten from -13 because you add 1 and change the sign of +12).

A food bank sends a truck with 400 pounds of food pantries every week, and receives a government surplus shipment of 3,200 pounds every other week. If it has 10,000 pounds of food on hand at the beginning of July, how much will it have six weeks later?

Answers

I’m pretty sure the answer would be 22,000 considering that have 10,000 pounds of food on hand, and every other week they receive 3,200 pounds of more food so that would be 3x 3,200= 9,600 because that is half of 6 weeks and every week of six weeks they receive 400 pounds of more food so 6x400 = 2,400
9,600+2,400=12,000 + 10,000 =22,000 pounds of food.

Henry sends his hawk with a message to his uncle. The hawk flies out against the wind and returns with the wind, spending 3 hours on the whole trip. How far is Henry's uncle from Henry if the speed of the wind is 5 mph, and the hawk flies 50 mph in quiet weather?

Answers

Answer:

Distance between Henry and his uncle is 74.25km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Hawk with wind = 50+5

                                           =55km/hr

Speed of Hawk against wind = 50-5

                                               =45km/hr

we know that ,

        [tex]Distance = speed \times time[/tex]

Let the distance between Henry and uncle is d,

According to the question ,

[tex]\frac{d}{55} + \frac{d}{45} = 3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{9d + 11d}{495} =3[/tex]

[tex]20d = 3\times 495[/tex]

[tex]d =\frac{3\times495}{20}[/tex]

d= 74.25km

Hence , the answer is 74.25km

The relation between speed, time, and distance is used. Then the distance between Henry's uncle from Henry is 74.25 miles.

What is speed?

The distance covered in an hour is called speed. it is a scalar quantity.

What is relative speed?

The concept of relative speed is used when two or more bodies moving with some speed are considered.

Henry sends his hawk with a message to his uncle.

The hawk flies out against the wind and returns with the wind, spending 3 hours on the whole trip.

We know the relation

[tex]\rm speed = \dfrac{distance }{time}[/tex]

Let the distance between Henry's uncle from Henry be x.

The time of the trip is during the traveling remains constant. That is

[tex]\rm T = T_1 + T_2\\\\T = \dfrac{x}{v_1} + \dfrac{x}{v_2}[/tex]

The speed of the wind is 5 mph, and the hawk flies 50 mph in quiet weather. Then we have

[tex]\rm v_1 = 50 - 5 = 45\\\\v_2 = 50 + 5 = 55[/tex]

Then

[tex]\begin{aligned} \rm \dfrac{x}{45} + \dfrac{x}{55} &= 3\\\\\rm \dfrac{9x + 11x }{495} &= 3\\\\\rm 9x + 11x &= 1485\\\\\rm 20x &= 1485\\\\\rm x &= 74.25 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the distance between Henry's uncle from Henry is 74.25 miles.
