The time required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working. It takes 5hr for 7 bricklayers to build a park w
ExtremeBDS [4]

<u>Answer</u>

3.5 hours.


<u>Explanation</u>

The first step is to calculate the constant of proportionality.

t ∝ 1/n

t = k/n   Where t = time, K= constant and n = number of people

t = k/n

k =tn

   = 5×7 = 35

The equation becomes;

t = 35/n

for n = 10,

t = 35/10

  t = 3.5 hours.

The graph of a quadratic function contains (4,-64) and it's vertex is at the origin.write an equation for this function.
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Not sure what form you need this in, but it really doesn't matter, as you'll see in the final equation.  I used the vertex form and solved for a:

y=a(x-h)^2+k

We are given the vertex (h, k) as the origin (0, 0), and we have a point that the graph goes through as (4, -64).  That's our x and y.  Plugging in what we have:

-64=a(4-0)^2+0 gives us

-64 = 16a and

a = -4.  That means that the quadratic equation is

y=-4x^2  which is both vertex form and standard form here, no difference.

The product of a number and -3 increased by 8 is 20
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The answer would be -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the product of a number and -3 must be 8 less than 20, which is 12. And -3 times -4 is 12.

Two fair dice are rolled 3 times and the sum of the numbers that come up is recorded. Find the probability of these events. a. T
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that two fair dice are rolled 3 times and the sum of the numbers that come up is recorded.

a) The sum is 4 on each of the three rolls.

(1,3) (2,2) (3,1) HEnce for one throw prob = 3/36 =1/12

Prob for getting same sum 4 in 3 rolls = (\frac{1}{12} )^3

(since each trial is independent)

b) Prob sum =4 in exactly 2 rolls

= 3C2 (1/12)^2 (11/12)=\frac{33}{12^3}
