Answer:
It would take 4 men 37 hrs and 12 mins to complete the same task.
step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the time the four men would use to complete the task.
From the question, 6 men completed a task in 24 hrs and 48 mins
But
Using ratio and proportion
if more, less divides and if less, more divides.
4 men required more time to complete the task
Hence:
x = 37 hrs 12 mins
Let s represent the length of one side of this rectangle, and w represent the width of the rectangle (length of one end). Then 2s + 2w = 12 units, and the area is a = s*w. Using the previous equation we can eliminate either s or w. Since we want s, eliminate w: 2w = 12 - 2s, or w = 6 - s.
Then the area of the rect. is a = s(6 - s) = 6s - s^2.
You have not shared the actual area of the rect., but have represented it by "a."
Suppose that the area is given and is 90. Then 90 square units = 6s - s^2, so that -s^2 + 6s - 90 = 0. Using the Pyth. Thm., we find s as follows:
-6 plus or minus sqrt( 6^2 - 4(-1)(-90)
s = ---------------------------------------------------
2(-1)
Unfortunately, s would come out as a pair of complex numbers, which is not possible in a situation where you're calculating lengths.
Please recheck this problem. Was the aera of the rectangle, a, given?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y - 0 = 1.2(x - 5)
y = 1.2x - 6
Answer:
the answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
when lines w and v are parallel then
65 = 4x - 3
62 = 4x
x = 15.5
