If I'm right, the foreman said that it would take the average amount of time to complete a job-since 5 hours is the average amount of time that it takes Shawn and Ellie to complete a job.
The work:
6(Ellie)+4(Shawn)=10/2(number of variables)=5 hours. 
Hope I helped!

Consider the function f (x) = x2.
klio [65]

Answer: The graph is shifted 2 units to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a function f(x), we know that one transformation rule is:

If f(x-k) then the function is shifted "k" units to the right.

 Therefore, for the function f(x)=x^{2}, when we subtract 2 from the input, then we get the function g(x) in the form:

 g(x)=(x-2)^{2}

We can conclude that subtracting 2 from the input of the function f(x)=x^{2}, then the graph is shifted 2 units to the right.
