5 \text { builders =} 3 \dfrac{1}{2}  \text { hours }

-------------------------------------------------------
Find 1 worker :
-------------------------------------------------------
1 \text { builders =} 3 \dfrac{1}{2}  \times 5 \text { hours }

1 \text { builders =} \dfrac{35}{2} \text { hours }

-------------------------------------------------------
Find 2 workers :
-------------------------------------------------------
2 \text { builders =} \dfrac{35}{2} \div 2 \text { hours }

2 \text { builders =} \dfrac{35}{4} \text { hours }

2 \text { builders =} 8.75 \text { hours }

-------------------------------------------------------
Find cost of 1 worker :
-------------------------------------------------------
Since they are paid hourly or part of an hour at £9.30.

One builder = £9.30 x 9 = £83.70

Hello! This is my first question ever. I am in AP Calculus and am working on a redo. I know the correct answer but don't know ho
Kipish [7]
Since \Delta x=\dfrac{b-a}n, and you have a corresponding term in the given Riemann sum of \dfrac5n, you know the integral is being taken over an interval of length 5, so you can omit the second choice.

Next, f(a+i\Delta x) corresponds to a=3 with \Delta x=\dfrac5n. The fact that a=3 alone tells you that the interval of integration starts at 3, and since we know the interval has length 5, that leaves the first choice as the correct answer.

Shkiper50 [21]
Answer: C.) f(x) = -2x + 5

If you start from x=1, you will see the patter follows -2x + 5

-2(1) +5 = -2+5 = 3
-2(2)+ 5 = -4 + 5 = 1
-2(3) + 5= -6 +5 = -1
And so on...
