Joe, working alone, takes 8 hours to mow a lawn. Sally, working alone, can mow the same lawn in 6 hours. How long does it take them together to mow the lawn (each using their own seperate mower)?

3 3/7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to find out how much work they can do in an hour.

let x represent the total collaborative work

1/8 + 1/6 = 1/x

3/24 + 4/24 = 1/x

7x = 24

x = 24/7 or 3 3/7 hours (in decimal form this is 3.4286)

I cannot guarantee this is correct but hope it helped

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!

answer is 8x+24

area of vanessa's patio = length × width

given, length = (3x² + 5x + 10)

width = (x² - 3x - 1)

area of vanessa's patio = (3x² + 5x + 10)(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x²(x² - 3x - 1) + 5x(x² - 3x - 1) + 10(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x⁴ - 9x³ - 3x² + 5x³ - 15x² - 5x + 10x² - 30x - 10

= 3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10

hence, expression of vanessa's patio = (3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10)
