Answer:a) 44hrs

b)5.5hrs

Step-by-step explanation

6 workers take 22hrs

a) if the workers decreased by factor of 2, number of workers =3. The time increases by factor of 2

Therefore, 3 workers take

22*2 = 44hrs

b) if the workers increased by factor of 4,

Number of workers = 6*4= 24

The time decreases by factor of 4

Therefore, 24 workers take

22/4= 5.5 hrs

A fishing boat with two people on it runs out of gas while out in a bay. The people set off an emergency flare from a height of
elixir [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

time taken to reach the max height is expressed according to the projectile equation;

tmax = u/g

Given u = 30m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81

t = 30/9.81

t = 3.0secs

hence it will take the flare 3.06secs to reach its maximum height.

Max height = u²/2g

Max height = 30²/2(9.81)

Max height = 900/19.62

Max height = 45.87m

If the people set off an emergency flare from a height of 2 meters above the water, the total height will be 45.87 + 2 = 47.87m

What is another way to write this number?<br><br> 300 + 70 + 5 + 8<br> 300 + 70 +<br> 10<br> 100
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Combine the terms

300 + 70 = 370

5/10 + 8/100

Note that first, you must find common denominators. What you multiply to the denominator, you multiply to the numerator. Multiply 10 to the numerator and denominator of 5/10

(5/10)(10/10) = 50/100

50/100 + 8/100

Combine the terms

50/100 + 8/100 = 58/100

370 58/100 is another way to write it
