15 electricians worked for 24 days to the whole job, now, there are 15 of them, so on any given day, each electrician worked one whole day, in 24 days, that one electrician worked 24 days total.

now, there were 15 electricians on any given day though, since each one of them worked the whole day that one day, so the "days work worth" on a day is 15, so the house gets 15days worth of work because of that.

so how many "days worth" did all 15 do on the 24 days, well, 15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15, namely 15 * 24, or 360 days worth of work.

since it takes 360 days worth of work to do the whole wiring, in how many days would 18 electricians do it?   360/18.

After 2 minutes an ant traveled 110 meters and after 7 minutes the ant will have traveled 260 meters. Assuming a linear equation
artcher [175]

Answer: y = 30x + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

let y be the distance traveled (in meters) after x minutes.

If we plot y on the vertical axis and x on the horizontal axis, a straight line would be formed. The slope of the straight line would be

Slope, m = (260 - 110)/(7 - 2)

m = 150/5 = 30

The equation of the straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where

c = intercept

m = slope

To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 7, y = 260 and m = 30 into y = mx + c. It becomes

260 = 30 × 7 + c = 210 + c

c = 260 - 210

c = 50

The linear model becomes

y = 30x + 50

What is the effect on the volume of a sphere if the radius is divided by 2?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

volume of sphere if radius is divided by 2 is 1/8 of volume of sphere with r radius.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find volume of sphere is:

Volume of sphere  = 4/3 π r^3

if radius is divided by 2 i.e r/2

Volume of sphere if r/2 = 4/3 π (r/2)^3

                                      = 4/3 π r^3/8

                                      =  (4/3 π r^3) / 8

                                      = (Volume of sphere 1)/8

So, volume of sphere if radius is divided by 2 is 1/8 of volume of sphere with r radius.
