Answer: It would take 9 hours for 4 painters to paint 720 feet of fence.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Calculate the time needed to paint the 720 ft fence with 2 painters.

    a.) Divide 720 by 280 to get how many times greater 720 is than 280.

         720 / 280 ≈ 2.57

    b.) Multiply the time needed to paint the 280 ft fence with 2 painters by 2.57.

         7 * 2.57 ≈ 18

2.) Calculate the time needed to paint the 720 ft fence with 4 painters.

   a.) Assuming that each painter paints the same amount of fence, divide the time in half, as 4 painters is double the original amount, so it would take half of the time.

       18 / 2 = 9

Suppose two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. What angle relationships describe congruent angles in this context?
baherus [9]

Answer:

Corresponding angles

Step-by-step explanation:

In elementary geometry the word congruent is often used as follows.

Two line segments are congruent if they have the same length.

Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure.

Two circles are congruent if they have the same diameter.

The eight angles that are produced as a result of two parallel lines are cut by a transversal will together form four pairs of corresponding angles. Corresponding angles are congruent. All angles that have the same position with regards to the parallel lines and the transversal are corresponding pairs.

How can you restrict the domain of the function f(x)=|x+4|-2 so the range of the inverse function f^-1(x),is [-4, )
wariber [46]

The range of the inverse has to match the domain of the original function. We want to have f^{-1}(x) map to [-4,\infty), so we restrict the domain of f(x) to this interval.
