Answer:

a.323.03hrs,

b.No. Time not enough

Step-by-step explanation:

One team takes [tex]\frac{1}{600}[/tex] of the job per hour,

Team two takes [tex]\frac{1}{700}[/tex] of the job together.

#to get what times it takes the two to clean together, we find the LCM of their work rates:

[tex]LCM=\frac{1}{600}+\frac{1}{700}\\=\frac{13}{4200}\\[/tex]#It takes the two13/4200 of the job per hour.

Combined work rate is thus [tex]4200\div 13=323.08hrs[/tex]

Hence it takes the two teams 323.03hrs to clean the streets working together.

b.The crew team is set to begin in 1 week(7days). We therefore convert our time into days/weeks to verify viability;

Since one day equals 24hrs, the team will take

[tex]323.03/24=13.46days[/tex]

13.46days>7days

#NO,  The time is not enough since 13.46days is higher than the 1week(7day) timeline.
