Terrell and Mindi are organizing a neighborhood skateboarding competition and need to build a mini ramp. Terrell can build the ramp in 12 hours. Mindi can build the ramp in 6 hours. Which shows the equation and solution for the time it will it take Terrell and Mindi to build the ramp if they work together? Round your answer to the nearest hour, if necessary.
I have an equation and solution but it may not match yours
they are both losers because i can build a ramp in ten minutes \
if it will help then give it a shot
ok well that was no help bigc84
\[\frac{12 \times 6}{12 + 6} = x\]
well ill give you the options hero
\(x =\) Time it takes both of them while working together
I'm not going to give you the answer. You have to take my hint and run with it.
i know. hahaXD @ineedhelp72 Thats what i was thinkin @Hero
i dont want the answer i want to know how to get each part of the answer
Start by solving for x in the equation I gave you.
A.2=(1/12+1/6)t; 3hours B.2=(12/1+6/1)t; 4hours C.1=(1/12+1/6)t; 4hours D.1=(12/1+6/1)t; 3hours
i know trhe anser is going to be (1/12+1/6) but i dont know how to get the hours and what t; 3 or 4 means?
Neveermind
But anyway, you should try solving the equations
which ones?
