Answer:
The workers will need 10 days to finish the job.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question we can use a compound rule of three. We have:
10 road workers -> 5 days -> 2h/day
2 road workers -> x days -> 5h/days
The first thing we should do is analyze how the proportions between the variables work, if they're inversely or directly proportional. If we raise the number of workers we expect that the amount of days needed to finish the job lowers and if we raise the number of hours worked in a day we expect that the workers would need less days to finish the job. So we need to invert the fractions that are inversely proportional to the amount of days worked, then we have:
2 -> 5 -> 5
10-> x -> 2
x = (5*2*10)/(2*5) = 100/10 = 10 days
Answer:
Equation: 65+1.50m=78.50
Solution to the equation= 9 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The parents have to give 65 dollars for their children to be under care till 6 o'clock. AFter 6 o'clock, they had to pay 1.50 dollars for one minute. This parent gives a total of 78.50 dollar for that day. So, the equation is :
65+1.50m=78.50
(btw, m stands for minutes)
So to solve the equation:
1.50m=13.50
m= 9
(by far the most painful question all day) 226 mins = 3.77 hours 4 3/5 hours = 4.6 hours 4.6- 3.77 = 0.83 hours 0.83 hours = 49.8 mins = 2988 seconds.
