Answer:

The workers will need 10 days to finish the job.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we can use a compound rule of three. We have:

10 road workers -> 5 days -> 2h/day

2 road workers ->  x days -> 5h/days

The first thing we should do is analyze how the proportions between the variables work, if they're inversely or directly proportional. If we raise the number of workers we expect that the amount of days needed to finish the job lowers and if we raise the number of hours worked in a day we expect that the workers would need less days to finish the job. So we need to invert the fractions that are inversely proportional to the amount of days worked, then we have:

2 -> 5 -> 5

10-> x -> 2

x = (5*2*10)/(2*5) = 100/10 = 10 days

If the translation of (x,y)->(x-5, y+2) was applied to the triangle ABC below, what would be the coordinates for A' after the
Rainbow [258]

Answer: (-3,0)

To get this answer, we subtract 5 from the x coordinate and add 2 to the y coordinate. Point A is located at (x,y) = (2,-2) so we see that x = 2 and y = -2

Subtract 5 from the x coordinate: x-5 = 2-5 = -3. The new x coordinate is -3

Add 2 to the y coordinate: y+2 = -2+2 = 0. The new y coordinate is 0.

Therefore, using the rule (x,y) --> (x-5,y+2) has the mapping (2,-2) ---> (-3,0)

Divide 5 by 4 and the left over Is the top of the fraction then your divisor is on the bottom so it would be 1 and 4/5.
