The answer is -3, i had a test with the same question
Answer:
a) $86.11
b) $467.33
Step-by-step explanation:
no. of gallons saved 'n' per year
n = (10000/33) - (10000/36)
n = 2500/99
Amount saved = 3.41×n = 3.41×2500/99
= $86.11
b) over 5 years:
86.11( 1 + (1.041) + (1.041)² + (1.041)³ + (1.041)⁴ )
= 86.11(5.427157431)
= $467.33
Answer:
2.2
Step-by-step explanation:
So if 2 people take 9 hours to paint the room and you want to know how long it will take if 3 people were painting first you will have to find the slope, or the rate of change, to do this you have to divide 9/2.
9/2= 4.5
So it take 4.5 hours for one person to paint the room.
Therefore if there where three people painting it would be 3 x 4.5= 13 hours and 30 minutes.
The time it would take to paint the room would increase.
