18 Electricians can complete the wiring in 28 days. We are to find how days will 28 electricians take for the same task.

Note that, if the number of electricians are increased, the number of days will be less to complete the same job. So we can conclude that there is an inverse relation between the Electricians and the number of days.

Let 28 electricians take x days to complete the same task. In an inverse relation, the product of two quantities is always equal to the constant of proportionality.

So, we can write:

18(35) = Constant of proportionality
and
28(x) = Constant of proportionality

From both these equation, we can write:

18(35) = 28(x)

⇒ x = 22.5

So, this means 28 electricians will do the same task in 22.5 days

Subtract the following polynomials. Write answer in a-b-c-d order. From 4a+7b-12c subtract 8a-9b+12d
ozzi

(4a+7b-12c)-(8a-9b+12d)\\4a+7b-12c-8a+9b-12d

Negative multiply negative = Positive

Negative multiply positive = negative

-8a+4a+9b+7b-12c-12d\\-4a+16b-12c-12d

Thus the answer is -4a + 16b - 12c - 12d.
