Answer: 7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

rate of first crew is 8 hours

jobe done by first crew in 2 hours is 2(1/8)= 2/8= 1/4

job left is 1-1/4= 3/4

rate of second crew 10 hours

time need to finish...

10(3/4)= 10(7.5)= 7.5

7 hours 30 minutes to finish

Not sure if this is a trick question but, if it is asking how long it would take the second crew without the first crew i assume 6 hours? 
or maybe it is asking for how long it would take the second crew after the first crew
6-3.5
=
2.5 maybe?

Which of the following is the point-slope form of the line?
ryzh [129]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the slope is positive, which means that the x-term must be positive.

If you expand and simply both equations into the form y = mx + b, you will find that m is positive for A and negative for B, hence A is the correct answer.

1.3 divided by 0.0338 step by step please
kati45 [8]
Alright, so we have 1.3/0.0338. Since it's easier (in my opinion) to work with whole numbers, we can multiply the fraction by 10000/10000 to get 13000/338. With a bit of guess and check, we can see that
338*30=338*3*10

____
1114

Multiplying that by 10, I get 11140, which isn't enough. Trying 338*40, which is 338*4*10, we can add 338 to 338*3 to get 338*4 to get

+338
____
1462

Multiplying that by 10, we get 14620, which is more than 13000 - something we don't want. Repeating this for 338*35 (which is 338*3.5*10, and 3.5 is 3*338+338/2)=11830 and which isn't enough, we then move on to something between 35 and 40 (the number doesn't matter), say 39. 338*39=338*3.9*10, and 338*3.9 is 338*3+338*9/10, and 
338*39 results to 13182, which is more than 13000 , but only by a tiny bit, so we can try 38 using the same method, getting 12844, which is smaller, so we know it's between 38 and 39. Finding the difference between 13000 and 12844, we get 13000-12844=156 and the answer is therefore 38+156/338
