If ray can fill in all the plates in 12 minutes when jasper is not there and in 30 min with jasper's interference, how long would it take for jasper to eat all the cheese fomr the plates after ray filled them?

Answer :

Answer:

It takes Jasper 20 minutes to empty the plates

Explanation:

The speed of Ray is 1/12, the speed of jasper is 1/x. You add up the two speeds and make them equal to 1/30 which is the time they spend together. Therefore you will get this equation 1/12 + 1/x = 1/30 and x = 7

It takes Jasper to eat all the cheese from the plates after ray filled them20 minutes to empty the plates.

Computation of the time period:

According to the given, information,

The speed of Ray = 1/12,

Let, the speed of jasper = 1/x.

Given the speed, the addition of both the speed=1/30

Now, we need to add the two speeds:

[tex]\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{x} =\frac{1}{130}[/tex]

Therefore, the value of X is 7 which means 4 minutes.
