Answer from: emilio77100

1) option: A (120 minutes)

2) option: A(96 minutes)

3) option: A

4) option: C

5) option: B

Step-by-step explanation:

Ques 1:

Let the total work be '240'

filling pipe empty pipe filling+empty pipe

Time 40 min 60 min x

Efficiency 240/40=6 240/60= -4 6-4=2

The efficiency of empty pipe is negative as it lead to more time in filling.

Hence the time taken by both the pipe will be $\dfrac{240}{2}$ =120 minutes.

Hence, option A is correct.

Ques 2:

Let the total work be '960'

Annmarie Gladys Annmarie+Gladys

Time 240 min 160 min x

Efficiency 960/240=4 960/160=6 6+4=10

Hence, the time taken if they work together is: $\dfrac{960}{10}=96 minutes$

Hence, option A is correct.

Ques 3:

Let the total work be '1'

Brody Hudson Brody+Hudson

Time 3 min x min 5 min

Efficiency 1/3 -1/x 1/5

the efficiency of Hudson is negative as he is taking out the candies.

since, efficiency of Brody+efficiency of hudson= efficiency of both

that means $\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{1}{5}$

Hence, option A is correct.

Ques 4:

Let the total work be '60'.

Leanne Karl Leanne+Karl

Time 30 min 20 min x

Efficiency 2 3 5

Hence, the time taken by both of them is: $\dfrac{60}{5}=12 \text{minutes}$

Hence, option C is correct.

Ques 5:

Let the total work be '1'

Genna Claude Genna+Claude

Time 4 hrs 3 hrs x hrs

Efficiency 1/4 1/3 1/x

Since, efficiency of Genna+Efficiency of Claude=Efficiency of both

that means $\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{x}$

Hence, option B is correct.

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
