For problems such as this, it can be handy to remember that
.. 1/(1/a +1/b) = ab/(a +b)
The time required to do a job is the inverse of the rate at which the job is done. Rates are added when people work together (in math problems, not in real life).
(2:44)*(3:14)/(2:44 +3:14) = 1:28:52.3
___
2:44 = 41/15 hours = 82/30 hours
3:14 = 97/30 hours
Using the formula above, we have a "working together" time of
.. (82/30)*(97/30)/(82/30 +97/30) = 82*97/(30*179) = 3977/2685 . . . hours
.. = 1 hour 28 156/179 minutes
.. = 1 hour 28 minutes 52 52/179 seconds

Grant needs to ride at least 13.33 miles to male at least $ 15.00 a day
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that Grant has an agreement with Brian to rent the bike for $35.00 a night
He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them
Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day
To find: miles needed to ride
From given question, He charges customers $3.75 for every mile he transports them
So if he transports for "x" miles he would get,
So the profit he gets is $ 3.75 and initial cost invested to rent bike is $ 35. Also, Grant needs to make at least $15.00 a day
So we can frame a inequality as:
So he needs to ride atleast 13.33 miles to male atleast $ 15.00 a day
12.195+9.13=21.325 is the answer
4 tables. 4*4 is 16, meaning that even if 4 players want to sit together it doesn't make a difference. With 16 players and 4 at a table we are going to need 4 tables.
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
12 is 40% of the total number of cards.
12 = 0.4x, where x is total number of cards
/0.4 /0.4
30 = x
30 cards
