Answer: it will take 5 people 6.4 hours to do the work.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of hours required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working. Let h represent the number of hours required to do the job. Let p represent the number of people working. Therefore,
h is inversely proportional to p
Introducing a constant of variation, k, it means that
h = k/p
It takes 8 hours for 4 people to paint the inside of a house. Therefore
8 = k/4
k = 8×4 = 32
The formula becomes
h = 32/p
To determine how many hours it will take 5 people to do the work, we will substitute p = 5 into the formula. It becomes
h = 32/5 = 6.4 hours
The answer is <span>one halfn − 16
</span>
Let the number be n.
<span>One half of a number is (1/2n)
</span><span>decreased by 16 is (-16)
</span><span>one half of a number decreased by 16 is
1/2n - 16
Or </span><span>one halfn − 16</span>
As they are similar figures,we can use the ratio of the side to find out the value of z.
The only side that both have the value indicated is 4 and 6,therefore we would use it to find the ratio.
The eqaution would be:
6/4 = z/8
3/2 = z/8
3×8 = 2z
z = 24/2
z = 12
Thus the value of z is 12.
Hope it helps!
(180-x) + 18 + 30 + x/2 = 180
=> 180 + 48 - x + x/2 = 180
=> -x/2 + 48 = 0
=> x/2 = 48
=> x = 48×2 = 96°
Answer:
8 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
8 and 2 because y=5x +3 would be 5+3 which is 8 and y= 3x - 1 would be 3 - 1 which equals 2.
