The time, t, required to complete a job

Mathematics
1 answer:
tigry1 [53]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

19 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

t varies inversely with number of people p

t = k/p

If it takes 7.125 hrs for 8 workers to do the job

K = tp

= 7. 125 x 8

= 57

How many hours will it take if there are 3 workers .

Recall t = k/p

t = 57/3

= 19 hrs

Therefore, It’ll take 19 hrs to Complete the job if there are only three workers.

In a geometric sequence, a4 = 54 and a7 = 1,458. what is the 12th term? <br><br> answer: B) 354,294
slamgirl [31]

Option B:

The 12th term is 354294.

Solution:

Given data:

a_4=54 and a_7=1458

To find a_{12}:

The given sequence is a geometric sequence.

The general term of the geometric sequence is a_n=a_1\ r^{n-1}.

If we have 2 terms of a geometric sequence a_n and a_k (n > K),

then we can write the general term as a_n=a_k\ r^{n-k}.

Here we have a_4=54 and a_7=1458.

So, n = 7 and k = 4 ( 7 > 4)

a_7=a_4\ .\ r^{7-4}

1458=54\ . \  r^3

This can be written as

$r^3=\frac{1458}{54}

$r^3=27

$r^3=3^3

Taking cube root on both sides of the equation, we get

r = 3

a_{12}=a_7\ .\ r^{12-7}

     =1458\ .\ r^5

     =1458\ .\ 3^5

a_{12}=354294

Hence the 12th term of the geometric sequence is 354294.

A triangle has two sides of length 2 and 18. What is the largest possible whole-number length for the third side?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 sides of a triangle then the third side x is

difference of 2 sides < x < sum of 2 sides , that is

18 - 2 < x < 18 + 2

16 < x < 20

Then the largest possible length of the third side is 19

What is the approximate area of the figure?
melisa1 [442]

Option D:

The approximate area of the figure is 109.6 square feet.

Solution:

The figure is splitted into three shapes.

One is rectangle and the other two is semi-circles.

Diameter of the semi-circle = 5 feet

Radius of the semi-circle = 5 ÷ 2 = 2.5 feet

Area of the semi-circle = \frac{1}{2}\pi r^2

                                      $=\frac{1}{2}\times 3.14\times (2.5)^2

Area of the semi-circle = 9.8 square feet

Area of 2 semi-circles = 2 × 9.8

Area of 2 semi-circles = 19.6 square feet

Length of the rectangle = 18 feet

Width of the rectangle = 5 feet

Area of the rectangle = length × width

                                    = 18 × 5

Area of the rectangle = 90 square feet

Area of the figure = Area of 2 semi-circles + Area of the rectangle

                              =  19.6 square feet + 90 square feet

                              = 109.6 square feet

The approximate area of the figure is 109.6 square feet.

Hence Option D is the correct answer.
