Jim can paint a house in 12 hours. alex can paint the same house in 8 hours. enter an equation that can be used to find the time in hours, t, it would take alex and jim to paint the house together assuming they both work at the wages they work when working alone

4.8 hr, or 4 hr 48 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let '1' represent 'the whole house-painting job.'

Then perform a dimensional analysis:

    1 whole house job

  = 12 hours.   →This restates the obvious:  Jim can

          1 job/ 12 hrs                                     paint a house in 12 hours.

Now if both people work together, the total time required to paint the house is:

              1 house job                         1 house job

 =    =  t for whole job

         1 job               1 job               8 job-hr + 12 job-hr        with both people

         +                     working

      12 hours           8 hours                        96 hr

This turns out to be:

              1

 =  96/20 hr  = 4.8 hr, or 4 hr 48 min

      20/96

The Height of isosceles Triangle = 12 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as ,

A isosceles triangle each sides measure = 13 meter

Base of triangle = 10 meter

Let the height of triangle = H

Now Height (H) =

where B = base  = 10 m

And     a= sides = 13 m

So , H =

      H =

      H = = 12 meter

Hence , the Height of isosceles Triangle = 12 meter    Answer
