First off, let's keep in mind we're looking for "days worth", how many days does it take to do an amount of cars.

so 12 folks can do in 12 days 40 cars, since each person is working every one of those 12 days, then each of those persons is working 12 days, now, there are 12 folks, that means the combined amount of days will be 12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12+12, or 12*12, 144 days worth, it takes them to do 40 cars.

so, to the same folks, how many days will it take them to do 30 cars?

\bf \stackrel{12~folks}{\begin{array}{ccll}
days&cars\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
144&40\\
x&30
\end{array}}\implies \cfrac{144}{x}=\cfrac{40}{30}\implies \cfrac{144\cdot 30}{40}=x\implies 108=x

that's 108 days worth for doing 30 cars.

for 12 folks, that'd be 108/12 or 9 days, 12 folks can do it in 9 days.

what about 4 folks only?  108/4 or 27 days.

The label on the car's antifreeze container claims to protect the car between −40°C and 125°C. To covert Celsius temperature to
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The label on the car's antifreeze container claims to protect the car between -40°C and 125°C.

So inequality which models this situation will be -40°C < T < 125°C

Now we have to show this inequality in Fahrenheit temperature with the help of C=\frac{5}{9} (F-32)

So the compound inequality in Fahrenheit temperature will be

-40 < \frac{5}{9} (F-32) < 125

What reason should kamal add to all of the question marks in order to completer the proof
brilliants [131]

Answer: The answers is alternate interior angles.


Step-by-step explanation:  First of all, the questions marks given in the figure are renamed in the attached figure as (a), (b), (c) and (d).

For (a): Since AC is parallel to A'C' and A'D is a transversal for these two parallel lines, so, ∠CDB' = ∠B'A'C', because these are alternate interior angles.

For (b): Since BC is parallel to B'C' and A'B' is a transversal, so ∠BEB' = ∠A'B'C', because these are alternate interior angles.

For (c): Since AB is parallel to A'B' and AD is a transversal, so ∠BAC = ∠CDB', because these are alternate interior angles.

For (d): Since AB is parallel to A'B' and BE is a transversal, so ∠ABC = ∠BEB', because these are alternate interior angles.

Thus, all the questions marks are the reasons that the given angles are equal because they are alternate interior angles.
