Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of days has gone down by a factor of 15/24. The number of workers is inversely proportional, so must increase by a factor of 24/15 = 8/5.
(5 workers) × (8/5) = 8 workers
8 workers are needed to complete the project in 15 days.
Answer:
the number is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
x^10 ÷ x^7 = 125
x^3 = 125
x = 5
Answer: k = -5
explanation-
distribute: -3k + -21 - 5k + 4= 23
combine: -8k -17 = 23
add 17 to both sides: -8k = 40
divide both sides by -8: k=-5
You forgot to put how long the original stick is
Step-by-step explanation:
let the first-day ride be x
Then the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x)
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x)
hence for the four days the distance covered is
65=x+1.5x+1.5*1.5x+1.5*1.5*1.5x
65=x+1.5x+2.25x+3.375x
65=8.125x
divide both sides by 8.125 we have
x=65/8.125
x=8mile
the first-day ride be x=8miles
the second-day ride will be
=1.5
x
=1.5*8= 12miles
The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x) = 18miles
The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x) = 27miles
