we have that

four people, five hours a day, six days

that represents

each people works-----> 30 hours in six days (5*6)

each people can do ----> 25% of the work (100%/4)

Divide percentage by the number of hours

25/30=5/6 % by hour

that means

Each people can do (5/6)% by hour

two people working for seven hours a day--------> represents 14 hours a day

Multiply 14 hours by (5/6)

14*(5/6)=11.67%

that means

two people in one day can do 11.67% of the work

Applying proportion

1/11.67%=x/100%

solve for x

x=100/11.67

x=8.6 days------> Round up

<h2>the answer is 9 days</h2>

Answer:

1. 4x + 6

2. -15x + 11

5. -x + 4

6. -4x + 7

9. 5x - 2

12. x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove the parenthesis for each one so everything's out in the open. Next, you group like terms. The numbers with variables on one side, and the other numbers on the other side. For example:

x + 3x - 2 + 8

Then, you combine like terms:

4x + 6

That's mostly how you do each one.

In rectangle abcd measure of angle d =(3x+15) measure b =(6x-42) find measure of angle a
slava [35]
5) So for parallelogram ABCD, ∠B ≅ ∠D, and ∠A ≅ ∠C. Further, ∠B and ∠A are supplementary (i.e., their sum is 180°), and ∠D and ∠C are also supplementary.
So, we have that m∠B = m∠D. Therefore, 
6x-42=3x+15\\3x=57\\x=19

Now, let's substitute for x back into the expression for either ∠B or ∠D to find it's angle measure.
m∠B = 6(19)-42=72
Now, remember that ∠B or ∠D are supplements of ∠A. 
So, m∠B + m∠A = 180°.
That means m∠A = 180° – 72° = 108°.
That seems reasonable, because A appears to be an obtuse angle.
