A business is using two painters to paint 3 offices, each with 1,200 square feet of wall space. one painter can paint 190 square

feet per hour. the other painter can paint 130 square feet per hour. how long will it take the two painters working together to paint the 3 offices?

To determine the total time it needs for the two painters to completely paint the whole wall space, we need to relate the total area of the wall to be painted and the time they need. So, base from the problem, the relation would just be a linear function. We do as follows:

let A = total area of the wall space
     t = total time they both need

Painter 1 = <span>190 square feet per hour
Painter 2 = </span><span>130 square feet per hour
total area = 1200 ft^2 (3) = 3600 ft^2

The function would be:

A = 190t + 130t
3600 = 190t + 130t
3600 = 320t
t = 11.25 hrs

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

(-3 + 2i \sqrt {48}) (- 5-4i \sqrt {12})

Rewriting:

(-3 + 2i \sqrt {4 ^ 2 * 3}) (- 5-4i \sqrt {2 ^ 2 * 3}) =\\(-3 + 2 * 4i \sqrt {3}) (- 5-4 * 2i \sqrt {3}) =\\(-3 + 8i \sqrt {3}) (- 5-8i \sqrt {3}) =

We apply distributive property:

- * - = +\\- * + = -\\15 + 24i \sqrt {3} -40i \sqrt {3} - (8i \sqrt {3}) ^ 2 =\\15 + 24i \sqrt {3} -40i \sqrt {3} -64i ^ 2 * 3 =

We have toi ^ 2 = -1:

15 + 24i \sqrt {3} -40i \sqrt {3} + 192 =

Adding similar terms:

207-16i \sqrt {3}

Answer:

207-16i \sqrt {3}

For each algebraic equation, select the property that could be used to solve it: 1. x-3=-5 2. 6x=72 3. x/5=3
kykrilka [37]
X - 3 = -5........addition property....because u add -3 to both sides

6x = 72.....either division property...because u divide both sides by 6.
                 or multiplication property...because u multiply both sides by 1/6

x/5 = 3.....multiplication  property....because u multiply both sides by 5

The angles of a triangle are in a ratio 1:3:8. What are the angles?<br>​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

15° , 45°, 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 1 + 3 + 8 = 12 parts

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , then

180° ÷ 12 = 15° ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

3 parts = 3 × 15° = 45°

8 parts = 8 × 15° = 120°

the 3 angles are 15° , 45° , 120°
