Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have 40 ft = 1219.2 cm (we need need to work in the same unit sistem)

Then we have

X+y=1219.2

X=y+12

Change the x in the first equation for 'y+12' and qe have

Y +12 + y = 1219.2

2y + 12 = 1219.2

2y=1219.2-12

Y=1207.2/2

Y=603.6 cm

And the longest side x=615.6cm

M) E + J =15 hs

If Epoy can do the job in 15 hs means that in 10 hs he is going to do 2/3 of the job ans Junjun will have to do the 1/3 of thejob.

If Junjun can do 1/3 en 15 hs, he would need 45 hs to do it himself
