4 people can dig a hole in 3 hours. How long does it take 9 people.
ad-work [718]

Answer: 1 hour 20 minutes

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let's figure out how long it would take 1 person to dig the hole and then divide that number by 9 (since they are sharing the workload).

\dfrac{1}{4}x=3\qquad \implies \qquad x = 12\quad \text{It takes 12 hours for 1 person}\\\\\\\dfrac{12\ \text{(for 1 person)}}{9\ \text{(people)}}\quad =1\dfrac{1}{3}\quad =\large\boxed{1\ hour\ 20\ minutes}

at maximum speed, an airplane travels 1720 miles against th wind in 5 hours. Flying with the wind, the plane can travel the same
iragen [17]

Answer:

x = 387

Step-by-step explanation:

The wind acts in the opposite direction to the plane when the time is longer.

The wind acts in the same direction as the plane when the time is shorter.

Equation

d = r*t

Givens

  • d = 1720
  • x = plane's speed
  • y = wind speed
  • t1 = 5 hours
  • t2 = 4 hours.

Substitution

  • d = (x + y) * t
  • 1720 = (x + y) * 4
  • 1720 = (x - y) * 5

Since the two distances are the same, you can equate the right hand sides.

  • (x + y) * 4 = (x - y)*5              Remove the brackets.
  • 4x + 4y = 5x - 5y                  Add 5y to both sides
  • 4x + 4y + 5y = 5x - 5y + 5y  Combine all the terms.
  • 4x + 9y = 5x                          Subtract 4x from both sides
  • 9y + 4x - 4x = 5x - 4x           Combine
  • 9y = x

Now use one of the given equations with the distance

  • 1720 = (x + y)*4           Substitute 9y for x
  • 1720 = (9y + y) *  4      Combine
  • 1720 = 10y * 4             Multiply the right
  • 1720 = 40y                  Divide by 40
  • 1720/40 = 40y/40      Do the division
  • 43 = y                          y = wind speek
  • 9y = x                          x = 9*y  
  • 9*43 = x
  • x = 387 miles per hour.
