So to set up this equation, you have to do
Time1*Workers1=Time2*Workers2
In this case, Time1=24 days, Workers1=15 electricians, and Workers2=18 electricians, and we have to solve for Time2

Thus we get 15*24=18*Time2
Time2=15*24/18=20 days

Answer:

20 days

Step-by-step explanation:

1)Set up the equation:

Time1xWorkers1=Time2xWorkers2

2)Apply the given:

Time1=24 days, Workers1=15 electricians, and Workers2=18 electricians.

3) Acknowledge the problem: We have to solve for Time2

4)Write the equation:

15*24=18*Time2

Time2=15*24/18

=20 days------> your answer

Given a graph, with no equation, how can you graph the inverse?
patriot [66]

There are two different ways you can do this, I have provided both below.

Answer: You can switch all the x and y coordinate values.

   For example, if you have (2, 1) you would graph (1, 2).

       Another example, if you have (677, 83) you would graph (83, 677)

Answer: Flip the graph over the line of y = x

   I have attached an example from<em> lumenlearning.com</em>.

Hi there
The formula to find I (ARP)

I=(2yc)/(m×(1+n)
I=(2×12×350)÷(1,860×(1+36))
I=0.1221×100
I=12.21%

Good luck!
