betty and karen have been hired to paint the houses in a new development. working together, the women can paint a house in two-thirds the time that it takes karen working alone. betty takes 4 h to paint a house alone. how long does it take karen to paint a house working alone?

Answers

Answer 1

Betty takes 6 hours to paint a house alone, that indicates she can paint 1/6 of the house in 1 hour then Karen working alone will paint a house in 3 hours.

How long does it take paint a house working alone?

Since Betty takes 6 hours to paint a house alone, that indicates she can paint 1/6 of the house in 1 hour.

Karen can even paint 1/x in 1 hour

Both of them will paint the house in 3/2 hours.

We then add them together which gives:

1/6 + 1/x = 3/2x

The lowest common multiple is 6x

1x/6x + 6/6x = 9/6x

We then leave out the denominators

1x + 6 = 9

simplifying the above equation, we get

x = 9 - 6

x = 3

Therefore, the value of x = 3.

Karen working alone will paint a house in 3 hours.

The complete question is:

Betty and Karen have been hired to paint the houses in a new development. Working together, the women can paint a house in two-thirds the time that it takes Karen working alone. Betty takes 14 h to paint a house alone. Betty takes 6 h to paint a house alone.

The difference between 75% of a number and 20% of the same number is 378.4 what is 40% of that number?

Answers

Answer:

40% of the number is 275.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to call the number x.

75% of the number: 0.75x

20% of the same number: 0.2x

The difference between 75% of a number and 20% of the same number is 378.4:

This means that:

0.75x - 0.2x = 378.4

0.55x = 378.4

x = 378.4/0.55

x = 688

40% of the number:

0.4*688 = 275.2

40% of the number is 275.2.

1. Graph the system of constraints and find the value of x and y that maximize the objective function.

Constraints { x ≥ 0; y ≥ 0; y ≤ 1/5 x + 2; 5 ≥ y + x
Objective Function: C = 7x - 3y

A. (0, 0)
B. (2, 3)
C. (5, 0)
D. (0, 3)

Answers

The point in the feasible region maximizes the objective function is (5, 0)

How to determine the feasible region?

The given parameters are

Objective function: C = 7x - 3y

Subject to (i.e. the constraints)

    x ≥  0, y ≥ 0

    y ≤ 1/5x + 2, 5 ≥ y + x

Next, we plot the graph of the constraints (see attachment)

This is done by entering the inequalities in a graphing calculator

From the graphing calculator, we have the feasible regions to be

(5, 0), (2.5, 2.5) and (0, 5)

Substitute (5, 0), (2.5, 2.5) and (0, 5) in the objective function: C = 7x - 3y

So, we have

(5, 0): C = 7(5) - 3(0)

C = 35

(2.5, 2.5): C = 7(2.5) - 3(2.5)

C = 10

(0, 5): C = 7(0) - 3(5)

C = -15

The value 35 is greater than 10 and -15

The coordinates at this value are (5, 0)

Hence, the coordinates is (5, 0)

The power of an integer is another term for an exponent. A whole number, fraction, negative number, or decimal are all acceptable. How frequently a number is multiplied by itself is indicated by its exponent. As 2 is multiplied by itself 4 times, 2222 might be expressed as 24, for instance.

How to check whether the value of x satisfies the equation?

To check the value of x satisfies the equation, put the value of x and if it matches the resultant, it is correct.

Now solving the first part, x/4=20;x=5

So, putting x=5 in the equation 5/4=1.25 is not matching with the resultant ie. 20.

Therefore, this is the incorrect value of x.

Now solving the second part, 1.5x-8=7;x=10

So, putting x=10 in equation 1.5*10-8= 15-8=7

It matches with the resultant.

Therefore, this is the correct value of x.

Now solving the third part, 4x+6=58; x=13

So, putting x=13 in equation 4(13)+6= 52+6=58

It matches with the resultant.

Therefore, this is the correct value of x.

4 cups of the​ cereal?

Answers

The unit rate for the cereal is  104 calories per cup and there are 416 calories in 4 cups

How to determine the unit rate for the cereal?

From the question, the given parameters are

Calories = 78 calories

Size of cups = 3/4-cup

The unit rate of the calories per cup is calculated as

Unit rate = Number of Calories/Size of cup

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have the following equation

Unit rate = 78/(3/4)

Evaluate the quotient

So, we have the following equation

Unit rate = 104

So, the unit rate is 104 calories per cup

For four cups of cereal, we have

Calories = 104 x 4

Answers

The output value of g( -5 ) in the function g( x ) = −23( x - 4 )2 + 3 is 417.

What is the output value of g(-5) in the given function?

A function is simply a relationship that maps one input to one output, that is, each x-value can only have one y-value.

Given the data in the question;

g( x ) = −23( x - 4 )2 + 3g( -5 ) = ?

To find the g( - 5 ), replace all the occurrence of x with -5 in the function and simplify.

g( x ) = −23( x - 4 )2 + 3

g( -5 ) = −23( -5 - 4 )2 + 3

g( -5 ) = −23( -9 )2 + 3

g( -5 ) = −23( -9 × 2) + 3

g( -5 ) = −23( -18) + 3

g( -5 ) = ( -23 × -18) + 3

g( -5 ) = ( 414 ) + 3

g( -5 ) = 414 + 3

g( -5 ) = 417

Therefore, the output value of g( -5 ) is 417.
