Pat has been assigned the job of picking apples from the family orchard. he could do the job alone in 8 hours. he knows that his sister, patti, could do the job in 7 hours. he begs her to , and she agrees. how long will both of them take to pick the apples? (round your answer to the nearest tenth.)

3.7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Pat could do the job alone in 8 hours.

Patti could do the job alone in 7 hours

Output = Rate * time

Let the rate at which pat does the work = Rp

Let the rate at which Patti does the work = Rt

Let X be the total output

Rp * 8 = X

Rp = X/8

Rt * 7 = X

Rt = X/7

If both pat and Patti pick apples, we have

(Rp+Rt)T = X

(X/8 + X/7)T = X

[(7X + 8X)/56]T = X

[X(7+8)/56]T = X

Divide both sides by X

[(7+8)/56]T = 1

(15/56)T = 1

T = 56/15

T = 3.7 hours

inequality:

620-37.4p ≥ 450

the minimum amount of packages needed to be removed from the elevator is 5.

step-by-step explanation:

hi there!
