All of the members of our spray-painting team paint at the same speed. If 20 team members can paint a 4800 square foot wall in 3

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

It takes 70 minutes for 9 team members (painting 60 sq ft per minute) to paint a 4200 sq ft wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

4800 ÷ 20 = 240 sq ft per team member in 36 minutes

240 ÷ 36 = 6.67 sq ft per team member in 1 minute

6.67 × 9 = 60 sq ft per 9 team members in 1 minute

4200 ÷ 60 = 70 minutes (or 1 hour and 10 minutes)

Simplify (-2x^4y^-3)^4

elixir [45]

Answer:

$( - 2 {x}^{4} {y}^{ - 3} )^{4} = \frac{16 {x}^{16}}{ {y}^{12} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to simplify:

$( - 2 {x}^{4} {y}^{ - 3} )^{4}$

We need to apply the exponential property for products of powers.

Recall that:

$( {a}^{m} \times {a}^{n} )^{p} = {a}^{mp} \times {a}^{np}$

We apply this rule to get:

$( - 2 {x}^{4} {y}^{ - 3} )^{4} = ( { - 2)}^{4} x \times {x}^{16} \times {y}^{ - 12}$

This simplifies to:

$( - 2 {x}^{4} {y}^{ - 3} )^{4} = 16 {x}^{16} \times {y}^{ - 12}$

We rewrite as positive index to get:

$( - 2 {x}^{4} {y}^{ - 3} )^{4} = \frac{16 {x}^{16}}{ {y}^{12} }$

Write and solve a real-world problem that represents the following one-variable inequality.

serg [7]

Hello there! An example problem for this could be:
Emile is looking for a cell-phone plan. His two options are one that costs $40 up front, and costs $0.01 per text, represented by x. The second one is 15 dollars up front and costs $0.06 for each text message. Emile figures that for the first package he has to send 500 texts or more to make it less than the second one.
