A farmer can plow a given field in 11 hours. If his son helps him, they can plow the vehicle together in 7 hours. How many hours would it take his son to plow the field alone? Express your answer as a fraction reduced to lowest terms, if needed

Answers

Answer 1

The total number of hours taken by farmer's son to plow the farm is 19 hours.

What is the concept of time and work?

Time refers to the duration of any task or activity that occurs or continues.

Work is a process or set of tasks designed to achieve a specific result.

We can define work happening as follows: - If a person A completes a task in X days, the amount of work finished in 1 day is 1/x.Likewise, if a person B finished work in Y days, his work completed in 1 day will become 1/Y.We can conclude from the preceding two points that A and B can complete (1/(X+Y) amount of work in one day. As a result, A and B could really complete the task in X Y/(X+Y) days.

For, the given question;

Let F be the number of hours taken by farmer to finish the work.

Let S be the number of hours taken by farmer' son to finish the work.

The amount of work finished in 1 hour by farmer is 1/F = 1/11.

The amount of work finished in 1 hour by farmer's son is 1/S.

The amount of work finished by both in 1 hours is;

1/F + 1/S = 1/7

1/S = 1/7 - 1/F

1/S = 1/7 - 1/11

Simplifying the given term;

1/S = 4/77

or, S = 77/4 = 19.25 hours.

S = 19 hours (fraction reduced to lowest terms)

Thus, the time taken by the farmer's son to complete the plow of field is 19 hours.

Answers

f the gray suitcase weighs 11 lb more than the pink suitcase, the pink suitcase weighs 5 lb than the blue suitcase, and the total of 3 suitcases is 127 lb, then the blue suitcase weighs 35.3 lb

Let the gray suitcase be represented by g

Let the pink suitcase be represented by p

Let the blue suitcase be represented by b

The gray suitcase weighs 11 lb more than the pink suitcase

g    =   p   +   11........(1)

The pink suitcase weighs 5 lb than the blue suitcase.

p   =  b  +  5

b  =  p  -  5...........(2)

Total of 3 suitcases = 127 lb

p  +  b  +  g    =  127............(3)

Substitute equations (1) and (2) into equation (3)

p  +  p  - 5 + p  +  11   =  127

3p  +  6   =  127

3p   =  127  -  6

3p   =  121

p  =  121/3

p  = 40.3 lb

Substitute p = 40.3 into equation (2)

b = p - 5

Use the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation
t2+5t−1=0.

Answers

The solution to the given quadratic equation using the completing the square method is t = -5/2 ±√29/4

Completing the square method

Given the quadratic equation expressed as;

t^2+5t−1=0

Add 1 to both sides

t^2+5t−1 + 1 = 0+1

t^2 + 5t = 1

Take the square of half of the coefficient of t to have:

t^2 + 5t + (5/2)^2 = 1 + (5/2)^2

(t+5/2)^2 = 1+25/4

(t+5/2)^2 = 29/4

t + 5/2 = ±√29/4

t = -5/2 ±√29/4

Hence the solution to the given quadratic equation using the completing the square method is t = -5/2 ±√29/4

Use the diagram to find the measures of the lengths of the
sides. The perimeter of the trapezoid on the right is 67
inches.

Answers

The length of all four sides of the Isoclesles Trapezium is 67 inches.

What is an area of a Trapezium?

Area of a Trapezium is (1/2)(a+b)h.Where and b are the parallel sides of the trapezium and h is the distance between the two parallel side

We know that for a plane 2D figure perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all the sides.

Given an isosceles Trapezium with a perimeter of 67 inches,

As the sides are given in variables we can equate the sum of all the sides with the given perimeter and obtain the value of x.

∴ (x + 1.5x + 2.5x - 5 + x) = 67.

6x = 67 + 5.

6x = 72.

x = 12.

So, the measure of lengths of four sides are [ 12 + 1.5(12) + 2.5(12) - 5 + 12) which is ( 12 + 18 + 30 - 5 + 12 ) = 67 inches.

what is the area of the rectangle?

Width;
4x-1 ,

Top length;
2x+17

Bottom Length;
6x+9 .

Please help ​

Answers

Answer:  147 square units

==============================================================

Explanation:

Recall that the opposite sides of any rectangle are the same length.

This means the top and bottom sides are the same length

top = bottom

2x+17 = 6x+9

2x-6x = 9-17

-4x = -8

x = -8/(-4)

x = 2

Then we can find each side:

width = 4x-1 = 4*2-1 = 8-1 = 7top = 2x+17 = 2*2+17 = 4+17 = 21bottom = 6x+9 = 6*2+9 = 12+9 = 21

We get the same length for top and bottom (21), which confirms the correct x value.

This is a 7 by 21 rectangle with area = length*width = 7*21 = 147 square units.

It is given that RSTU is a parallelogram, so RU ∥ ST by the definition of parallelogram.

Therefore, ∠1 ≅ ∠2 by the alternate interior angles theorem, and m∠1 = m∠2 by the angle congruence postulate .

It is also given that ∠1 and ∠3 are complementary, so m∠1 + m∠3 = 90° by the definition of complementary .

By substitution, m∠2 + m∠3 = 90°, and so ∠2 and ∠3 are complementary by the definition of complementary.

How to prove the angles in a Parallelogram?

From the given image of the parallelogram, we are given that;

Angle 1 and angle 3 are complementary.

Now, complementary angles sum up to 90°. Thus;

∠1 + ∠3 = 90°

Now, according to definition of parallelogram, we know that alternate interior angles of a parallelogram are congruent(equal). Thus;

∠1 = ∠2

Since ∠1 = ∠2, then by substitution property into the first equation, we have; ∠2 + ∠3 = 90°

Since the sum of ∠2 and ∠3 is equal to 90°, then we can say that they are both complementary angles.

Thus, we conclude that;

It is given that RSTU is a parallelogram, so RU ∥ ST by the definition of parallelogram.

Therefore, ∠1 ≅ ∠2 by the alternate interior angles theorem, and m∠1 = m∠2 by the angle congruence postulate .

The principal is $145 .

Simple interest is the interest amount for a particular principal amount of money at rate of interest. The interest is calculated by multiplying the principal with the time and rate. The total amount after a certain time is given by the sum of the  principal and the interest for that time.

The formula for calculating the Interest on a Principal(P) , time(t) and rate(R).

Answers

Answer:

  7 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

A boat whose speed in still water is 26 mph makes a trip upstream in 33 minutes and returns in 19 minutes. You want to know the speed of the current.

Setup

The travel time is inversely proportional to the speed, so we can write the proportion (using c for the current speed in mph) ...

  time upstream / time downstream = speed downstream / speed upstream

  33/19 = (26 +c)/(26 -c)

Solution

Multiplying by 19(26 -c) gives ...

  33(26 -c) = 19(26 +c)

  (33 -19)(26) = (33 +19)c . . . . add 33c -19(26)

Y - 0.15 × Y = Z    ⇒ second discounted price.

Z - 0.30 × Z = T        ⇒ total discounted price.

Now

X - 0.40 × X = (1 - 0.40) × X = 0.60 × X = Y

Y - 0.15 × Y = (1 - 0.15) × Y = 0.85 × Y = Z

Z - 0.30 × Z  = (1 - 0.30) × Z  = 0.70 × Z = T

Also, Z = 0.85 × Y, then 0.70 × Z = 0.70 × 0.85 × Y

And, Y = 0.60 × X, then 0.70 × Z = 0.70 × 0.85 × 0.60 × X
