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

-3.5 x 0.2 =??? ;w;<br><br><br> A. -0.7<br> B. 0.7<br> C. -3.3<br> D. -0.7
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

It can't be B because of the negative...

It would have to be less than 3.3 since 0.2 is less than and the 3.3 is negative

A and D are the same?

-3.3 * 0.2 = -0.7

lakkis [162]
<span>The number of dollars collected can be modelled by both a linear model and an exponential model. To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on a linear model, we recall that the formula for the equation of a line is given by (y - y1) / (x - x1) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) = (1, 2) and (x2, y2) = (3, 8) The equation of the line representing the model = (y - 2) / (x - 1) = (8 - 2) / (3 - 1) = 6 / 2 = 3 y - 2 = 3(x - 1) = 3x - 3 y = 3x - 3 + 2 = 3x - 1 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the linear model is given by y = 3(6) - 1 = 18 - 1 = $17 To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on an exponential model, we recall that the formula for exponential growth is given by y = ar^(x-1), where y is the number of dollars collected and x represent each collection day and a is the amount collected on the first day = $2. 8 = 2r^(3 - 1) = 2r^2 r^2 = 8/2 = 4 r = sqrt(4) = 2 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the exponential model is given by y = 2(2)^(5 - 1) = 2(2)^4 = 2(16) = $32</span>
