First, distribute the (1/2) into (4x+12) by multiplying them.
The equation becomes:
2x + 6 + 5x = 30
On the left side, combine “like terms” through addition.
7x + 6 = 30
Subtract 6 from both sides:
7x = 24
Finally, get x alone by dividing both sides by 7:
x = 24/7, or if you wanted to round the decimal answer, it’s about 3.429.
The minimal completion time for the activities is the shortest possible time for all the activities to be finished. In doing this, we look at the path that would require the greatest amount of time. At the START node, we choose the path that would take the longest which is 7 days leading to ACTIVITY D. Next, we choose the path leading to ACTIVITY B which takes 5 days. Then, we move to ACTIVITY C taking 5 days and finally, reach the END which would take 6 days. So, the minimal completion time is:
7 + 5 + 5 + 6 = 23 days
Answer: She would need 32
Step-by-step explanation:
3345 because it’s squared
