In 3 hours, one good worker can paint one fourth of your house. Three good workers can thus paint three fourths of your house in three hours, leaving one fourth to be done by bad workers.
One bad worker can paint one twelfth of your house in 3 hours. There are three twelfths in one fourth, so you will need to hire three bad workers to have your house painted on time.
Answer: The polynomial
= y² - 5y - 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the polynomial = f(y)
Therefore
y² -5y + 1 - f(y) = 5
f(y) = y² - 5y + 1 - 5
f(y) = y² - 5y - 4
The polynomial = y² - 5y - 4.
Check:
y² - 5y + 1 - ( y² - 5y - 4)
Open the bracket with the minus
y² - 5y + 1 - y² + 5y + 4
y² - y² - 5y + 5y + 1 + 4
= 0 - 0 + 5
= 5.
Answer:
(2)(120)(80) + (2)(120)(50) - (4)(60)(5²)
Step-by-step explanation:
The lateral faces of the building are the 4 sides of the building consisting:
2 rectangles of 120 ft by 80 ft
Area of the two rectangular faces = (2)(120)(80)
And
2 rectangles of 120 ft by 50 ft
Area of the two rectangular faces = (2)(120)(50)
✔️Total lateral surface area of the building = (2)(120)(80) + (2)(120)(50)
Note: we are asked to find the expression that represents the total surface area that needs to be painted given that there are 60 windows on each lateral face of the building of the shape of a square with side lengths of 5 ft.
Therefore, the total lateral surface area of the building that will be painted = total lateral surface of the building - total area covered by the 60 windows on each face of the building
Surface area covered by 60 windows in the 4 lateral face of the building = (4)(60)(5²)
✅total lateral surface area of the building that will be painted = (2)(120)(80) + (2)(120)(50) - (4)(60)(5²)
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
- running speed: 8 mph
- walking speed: 2 mph
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Let w represent Lizette's walking speed. Then her running speed is w+6. The relationship between speed, time, and distance is ...
distance = speed × time
Lizette ran for 1.5 hours, then walked for 3 hours. Her total distance is ...
(w+6)·1.5 + w·3 = 18
4.5w + 9 = 18 . . . . . simplify
4.5w = 9 . . . . . . . . . subtract 9
w = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4.5
Lizette's walking speed is 2 mph; her running speed is 8 mph.
