Answer:

2 people will take 90 days to complete the same house

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Given:</em></u>

T1 = 30 days

P1 = 6

T2 = x

P2 = 2

This is an inverse proportion because if there are more people, less time will be taken to complete the house and vice versa.

<u><em>So, We'll write it in the order of :</em></u>

=> T1:T2 = P2:P1

=> 30:x = 2:6

<u><em>Writing in fraction form</em></u>

=> \frac{30}{x} = \frac{2}{6}

<em>Cross Multiplying</em>

=> 2x = 180

<em>Dividing both sides by 2</em>

=> <u><em>x = 90 days</em></u>

So, <u><em>2 people will take 90 days to complete the same house</em></u>

What are all values of x for which the series shown converges? ​
adoni [48]

Answer:

One convergence criteria that is useful here is that, if aₙ is the n-th term of this sequence, then we must have:

Iaₙ₊₁I < IaₙI

This means that the absolute value of the terms must decrease as n increases.

Then we must have:

\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}}

We can write this as:

\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2 )^{n+1}}{(n + 1)*3^{n+1}} = \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n + 1)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}

If we assume that n is a really big number, then:

n + 1 ≈ 1

And we can write:

\frac{(x -2)^n}{n*3^n} > \frac{(x -2)^n}{(n)*3^n} * \frac{(x - 2)}{3}

Then we have the inequality

1 > (x - 2)/3

And remember that this must be in absolute value, then we will have that:

-1 < (x - 2)/3 < 1

-3 < x - 2 < 3

-3 + 2 < x < 3 + 2

-1 < x < 5

The first option looks like this, but it uses the symbols ≤≥, so it is not the same as this, then the correct option will be the second.

For what values of a are the following expressions true?/a+5/=-5-a
katovenus [111]

Explanation:

The expression is given below as

|a+5|=-5-a

Concept:

We will apply the bsolute rule below

\begin{gathered} if|u|=a,a>0 \\ then,u=a,u=-a \end{gathered}

By applying the concept, we will have

\begin{gathered} \lvert a+5\rvert=-5-a \\ a+5=-5-a,a+5=5+a \\ a+a=-5-5,a-a=5-5 \\ 2a=-10,0=0 \\ \frac{2a}{2}=\frac{-10}{2},0=0 \\ a=-5,0=0 \end{gathered}

Hence,

The final answer is

a\leq-5

Answer:

A.

{b}^{2}  + 3b - 3 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

{b}^{2}  + 3b - 3 = 0 \\ because \:  \:  {b}^{2}  < 4ac \\ {b}^{2}    = {3}^{2}  = 9 \\ 4ac = 4 \times 1 \times  - 3 =  - 12 \\ hence :  {b}^{2}  < 4ac

Katarina [22]

Answer: 32 meters

Explanation: The 4 meter pole casts a shadow of 5 meters. The towers unknown height casts a shadow of 40 meters. Now isolate the shadows. 5 and 40. 40 divided by 5 is 8, so 4 times 8 is 32.
