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 / 20

Time required for helper to finish the job:

= 20 hours

Solve 11 - 1/2y= 3 + 6x for y.​
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

y = 12x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify both sides of the equation and then isolate the variable.

In Step 1, add 11 to each side.

−1 /2 y+11+−11=6x+3+−11

−1 /2 y=6x−8

In Step 2, divide each side by (-1)/2.

This leads to

y = 12x + 16

tester [12383]
width = x perimeter = 80 or 2(x + l) = 80. Therefore, l = length = 40 - x, leading to the area = x(40 - x), which cannot equal zero. Thus, the condition is x(40 - x) > 0, establishing the domain as 0.

Leona [12618]
To tackle this mathematical issue, we should first gather and evaluate the known values alongside the unknowns posed by the problem. Annie traveled five times the total of the hours Brian traveled and an additional 2. Together, they totaled 20 hours. Calculate the individual hours.

tester [12383]
The solution is $56.95. A discounted price refers to the amount deducted from the original price when customers receive a benefit from the seller. Here, the ticket's discounted cost is $44, which is $12.95 less than what it originally cost. Thus, the original price is: $44 + $12.95 = $56.95.
