Detailed explanation:

Work completed by Gardner each hour = 1 / 5

Combined work done by Gardner and assistant each hour = 1 / 4

Work done by the helper per hour

= 1 / 4 - 1 / 5

= 1 / 20

Time required for helper to finish the job:

= 20 hours

If f(x) is an even function and (6, 8) is one the points on the graph of f(x), which reason explains why (–6, 8) must also be a
Svet_ta [12734]

If f(x) is categorized as an even function, then f(x)=f(-x). In this circumstance, f(6)=8=f(-6).


This indicates an even function has symmetry about the y-axis. Thus, the results of a negative x-value and a positive x-value are identical.


The appropriate choice is the first alternative.

As the graph is even, the outputs for a negative x-value and a positive x-value are congruent.

A line segment has endpoints at (–1, 4) and (4, 1). Which reflection will produce an image with endpoints at (–4, 1) and (–1, –4
zzz [12365]

Answer: The image of the line segment as reflected across the line y = –x.


Explanation:

In reflecting across the line y = -x, the coordinates of x and y will switch positions, and their signs will also switch.

Given: The endpoints of a line segment are (–1, 4) and (4, 1), and their reflection results in the endpoints (–4, 1) and (–1, –4).

(-1, 4)→(-4, 1) and

(4, 1)→(-1, -4)

This demonstrates the reflection of the line segment across the line y = –x.

lawyer [12517]

Answer:

24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the rate of 120 envelopes per minute.

40/8 = 120/y

40y = 8 * 120

40y = 960

y = 960/40

= 24 minutes
