Translate into an algebraic expression and simplify if possible. C It would take Maya x minutes to rake the leaves and Carla y minutes, what portion of the leaves do they rake in one minute if they work together?

in one minute they rake leaves working together.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Maya rakes the leaves in x minutes, then, in one minute she rakes leaves.

In the case of Carla, if she rakes the leaves in y minutes, in one minute she rakes leaves.

Therefore, to know the portion of leaves they can rake in one minute working together, we need to sum up both of the portions each one of them rake in one minute, this gives us:

Now, to simplify this expression:

Thus, in one minute they rake leaves.

answer: 7270

step-by-step explanation:

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
