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

Answer: x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

15 / 20 = (2x + 3) / 28

cross multiply

15(28) = 20(2x + 3)

420 = 40x + 60

360 = 40x

x = 9

Need help finding the domain and range
pogonyaev

Here are a few things you'll need to know for this question:

  • Domain: <u>The list of x-values that are possible on a line.</u>
  • Range: <u>The list of y-values that are possible on a line.</u>
  • Interval Notation: <u>Shows the domain/range using the endpoints</u>. Brackets mean that the endpoint is included, parentheses mean the endpoint is excluded. Ex: (2,10]. 2 is excluded, 10 is included.
  • Closed Circles: <u>The endpoint is included.</u>
  • Open Circles: <u>The endpoint is excluded.</u>

So firstly, let's look at the domain. We see that there is a closed circle at x = -2 and an open circle at x = 5. Using what we know, <u>the interval notation of the domain is [-2,5).</u>

Next, let's look at the range. We see that there is a closed circle at y = -5 and an open circle at y = 2. Using what we know, <u>the interval notation of the range is [-5,2).</u>
