One person can do a certain job in fifteen minutes, and another person can do the same job in ten minutes. how many minutes will they take to do the job together?

They will take 6 minutes to do the job together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the time taken by one person to do a job is 15 minutes.

The time taken by another person to do the same job is 10 minutes.

Let T represent the time taken when they both work together.

Therefore the required equation is:

Hence, they will take 6 minutes to do the job together.

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3
