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

How many more equal angles does a square have than a rectangle?
leva [86]
A rectangle, is a quadrilateral with all angles at 90°.

a square is a quadrilateral with all equal sides, and right-angles all around.

now, the rectangle as well as the square, have all right-angles, the only difference is that the square has all equal-length sides, whilst a rectangle can have pairs of sides that vary in length.

Is 4(4a+20b) equivalent to 16a+24b
8090 [49]
No.

When you are distributing, you are multiplying to each monomial

4(4a) = 16a

4(20b) = 80b

16a + 80b is your actual answer

Answer:

SA: 664 in²

LA: it’s supposed to be 1040cm???

Step-by-step explanation:

SA: find the area of all sides of the prism first (I suppose it’s rectangular?)

80+80+112+112+140+140 = 664

LA: the lateral area formula is (perimeter of base)*height...

perimeter of base = (6+6+14+14) = 40

40 * 26 = 1040

I may be wrong on the second one since I don’t know what the prism’s shape is... Hope it helps though ;)
