martha can paint a room in 8 hours. jamie can paint the same room in 4 hours. how long to the nearest tenth of an hour will it take them to paint the room together

in 1 hr martha finishes 1/8th of the room

in 1hr jaime finishes 1/4th of the room

combined in 1hr they can finish (1/8 + 1/4) = 3/8th of the room.

for painting the whole room both of them together it takes the 8/3 hrs = 2.67hr

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !

trapezoid

step-by-step explanation:

first i plotted all my points on a grid graph

i made sure all of them were in the correct quadrant

then i saw it was a trapezoid or a quadrilateral
