Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Yes the company can hire 6 carpenters and 12 pumbers

So first lets find out how much it costs to have 6 carpenter for $220 a day.

$220 × 6 = $1320  this is how much it cost to pay 6 carpenters for one day.

Now lets find how much it cost to 12 plumbers at $260 a day.

$260 × 12 = $3120 this is how much it costs to pay 12 plumbers a day.

The total amount you have to pay to the workers is:

$3120 + $1320 = $4440

Your budget was $4500 so the total costs for the workers is $4440 which means you can hire those workers and you would still have $60.

Given the figure what is the value of x show your work
grandymaker [24]

51 + 3x+5 = 107

Simplify the left side:

3x + 56 = 107

Subtract 56 from both sides:

3x = 51

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 51 / 3

x = 17

Angle F and the outside angle of 107, need to equal 180 degrees.

F - 180 - 107 = 73 degrees.

Divide 42 in a ratio of 1:2:3?
Cloud [144]
Ratio 1:2:3 means we have x, 2x and 3x as the three parts

x+2x+3x = 42
6x = 42
6x/6 = 42/6
x = 7

Since x = 7, this means 2x = 2*7 = 14 and 3x = 3*7 = 21

Dividing 42 into the ratio of 1:2:3 means we have 7:14:21 as the answer

If we divide all three parts of 7:14:21 by the GCF 7, we reduce it down to 1:2:3

As a check, 
7+14+21 = 21+21 = 42
so it works out
