One person can do a certain job in six days, a second person can do the same job in two days, and a third person can do this job in three days. How many days will they take to do the job together?
A. 1 day
B. 2 days
C. 6 days

Answers

Answer 1
Let the three person be represented by X, Y and Z.
X can do 1/6 of the job in 1 day
Y can do 1/2 of the job in 1 day and 
Z can do 1/3 of the job in 1 day
Together, these 3 people will do: 1/6 + 1/2 + 1/3 = 1 of the job in one day
Thus, the three people will do the job in one day.
The correct option is A

I can type 225 minutes in 5 minutes.at that speed,how many words can I type

Answers

If you're asking, how many words can you type in a minute it would be 45 (225/5=45)

But if you are asking how many words can you type in 10 minutes, it would be 450 words because 225 * 2 = 450.

Find the standard deviation for each data set. Which set is more variable?

Answers

Eastern States Standard deviation = 6440.2
Western States Standard deviation = 16178

The Western States is more variable because it has a higher deviation. Also you can tell that the Western States is more variable because the the data/numbers change more than the Eastern States.

Answer:

Second set.

Step-by-step explanation:

I put the formula of standart deviation in the image below.

x is each data of the list

μ is the data average

N is the amount of elements.

So, for the first list we have:

μ= [tex]\frac{28995+37534+31361+27087+20966+37741}{6}= \frac{183684}{6}=30614[/tex]

DE= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{|28995-30614|^{2}+|37534-30614|^{2}+|31361-30614|^{2}+|27087-30614|^{2}+|20966-30614|^{2}+|37741-30614|^{2}}{6} }[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2621161+47886400+558009+12439729+93083904+50794129}{6} }[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{207383332}{6} }[/tex]

=  [tex]\sqrt{ 34563888.6667 }[/tex]

= 5879.1061.

For the other list of elements:

μ= [tex]\frac{72964+70763+101510+62161+66625+54339}{6}= \frac{428362}{6}=71393.66[/tex]

DE=[tex]\sqrt{\frac{|72964-71393.66|^{2}+|70763-71393.66|^{2}+|101510-71393.66|^{2}+|62161-71393.66|^{2}+|66625-71393.66|^{2}+|54339-71393.66|^{2}}{6} }[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2465967.71+397732.03+906993934.99+85242010.67+22740118.19+290861427.71}{6} }[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{\frac{1308701191.3}{6} }[/tex]

=  [tex]\sqrt{218116865.21 }[/tex]

= 6029.32

Then, the second set is more variable.

How many packages of diapers can you buy with $36 when on package costs $9?

Answers

Based on the calculations, the number of diapers which can be bought with $36 is equal to $4.

Given the following data:

Cost of diaper = $9.Amount for packages = $36.

How to calculate the number of diapers?

In order to determine the number of diapers that can be bought with $36, we would set up a direct proportion equation as follows:

$9 = 1 diaper

$36 = X diapers.

Cross-multiplying, we have:

9X = 1 × 36

9X = 36

X = 36/9

X = $4.

two trains leave the station at the same time one heading west and the other East the westbound train travels at 55 miles per hour East bound train travels at 75 miles an hour how long will it take for the two trains to be 338 miles apart

Answers

recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

so... one train goes west and the goes the opposite way... alrite... so... notice, by the time 338 miles have been covered by both, it will have been "t" hours, and whatever "t" is, is the same amount of time the westbound train has been running as well as the eastbound train has been running.

now, let's say, since by "t" hours they've covered 338 altogether, so, if the westbound train has covered say "d" miles, then the eastbound train would have covered the slack from 338 and d, that is, "338 - d".

[tex]\bf \begin{array}{lccclll} &\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\ &------&------&------\\ Westbound&d&55&t\\ Eastbound&338-d&75&t \end{array} \\\\\\ \begin{cases} \boxed{d}=55t\\ 338-d=75t\\ ----------\\ 338-\boxed{55t}=75t \end{cases} \\\\\\ 338=75t+55t\implies 338=130t\implies \cfrac{338}{130}=t\implies \stackrel{hours}{2.6}=t[/tex]

the distance from the earth to the Sun is approximately 9.3×10^7 miles. if light travels 1.2×10^7 miles in 1 minute, how many minutes does it take the light from the sun to reach the earth ?

Answers

t takes 5 1/3 minutes for light from the sun to reach earth. The Moon is closer to earth, so it,s light reaches earth faster about 5 19/60 minutes faster than from the sun. How long does light from the moon take to reach earth.
Final answer:

It takes approximately 12.47 minutes for light from the Sun to reach the Earth.

Explanation:

To find out how many minutes it takes for light from the Sun to reach the Earth, we can divide the distance from the Earth to the Sun by the distance light travels in 1 minute.

First, let's convert the distance from miles to kilometers. 1 mile is approximately 1.60934 kilometers, so the distance from the Earth to the Sun is approximately 1.496 × 108 kilometers.

Now, we divide this distance by the distance light travels in 1 minute: 1.496 × 108 kilometers / 1.2 × 107 kilometers per minute = 12.47 minutes.

Therefore, it takes approximately 12.47 minutes for light from the Sun to reach the Earth.

Suppose the length of a diagonal of a square increases from 16 cm to 16.1 cm. What would the change in the area of the square be

Answers

The change in area will be such that it will increase by 1.605 or 1.25%.

What is a square?

A square is a geometrical figure in which we have four sides each side must be equal and the angle between two adjacent sides must be 90 degrees.

Area of square = Side²

The perimeter of the square = 4× side

The area of a square with diagonal x is given as x²/2.

Area with diagonal 16 cm ⇒ 16²/2 = 128 cm²
Area with diagonal 16.1 cm ⇒ 16.1²/2 = 129.605 cm²

Change of area = 129.605 - 128 = 1.605 cm².

Percentage change = 1.605/128 x 100 = 1.25%.

Hence "The change in area will be such that it will increase by 1.605 or 1.25%".

Answers

2144miles ÷ 8hrs = 268miles in 1hrs

trip 560 miles ÷ 268 miles per hours = 2hrs and 8min

Answer:

The train travels 268 miles in 1 hour. It would take 2.0896 hours to travel between the cities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The shanghai maglev traveling about 2144 miles in 8 hours.

This can be written as:

2144 miles = 8 hours

Divide both sides by 8.

2144/8 miles = 8/8 hours

268 miles = 1 hours

Thus, the train travels 268 miles in 1 hour.

The distance between Columbus Ohio and new York city is about 560 miles. We need to find how many hours would it take the train to travel between the cities.

268 miles = 1 hours

Divide both the sides by 268.

1 miles = 1/268 hours

Now multiply both sides by 560.

560 miles = 560/268 hours

560 miles = 2.0896 hours

Hence, it would take 2.0896 hours to travel between the cities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of sequins required is equal to the area of the rectangle.

Length of rectangle is 10cm and width is 21 cm.

Area of rectangle = length x width.
