Working alone, it takes Shanice nine hours to pick forty bushels of apples. Elisa can
pick the same amount in eight hours. If they
worked together how long would it take
them?

roughly 4 hours and 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

S= 4.44 a/h

E= 5 a/h

If worked together, x(4.44+5)=40

x= 4.24

with btw u said 100pts but it clearly says

i answerd and just got 10pts

no hate

b

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = = = - 3

with m = - 3 and (a, b) = (3, - 5), then

y - (- 5) = - 3(x - 3), that is

y + 5 = - 3(x - 3) → b
