Answer:
compare (1/2)^3 is greater than (a/b)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2*1/2*1/2= 0.125 or 1/8
1/4 * 1/4=0.0625 or 1/16
Answer: it will take 5 people 6.4 hours to do the work.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of hours required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working. Let h represent the number of hours required to do the job. Let p represent the number of people working. Therefore,
h is inversely proportional to p
Introducing a constant of variation, k, it means that
h = k/p
It takes 8 hours for 4 people to paint the inside of a house. Therefore
8 = k/4
k = 8×4 = 32
The formula becomes
h = 32/p
To determine how many hours it will take 5 people to do the work, we will substitute p = 5 into the formula. It becomes
h = 32/5 = 6.4 hours
9x - 2y = 11 ... (i)
5x - 2y = 15 ... (ii)
Subtracting equation (ii) from (i) we get;
4x + 0 = -4
4x=-4 , x = -1
Replacing x = -1 in equation (i) we get;
9(-1) - 2y = 11
-9 - 2y = 11
-2y = 20
y = 20 ÷ -2 = -10
The solution to the system of equations is (-1,-10).
Answer:
The correct option is;
C. 52.2 × 4.4 × 2 + 47.8 × 4.4 × 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the square frame is the area of the inner square subtracted from the area of the outer square
Which gives;
52.2² - 47.8² = 440
Therefore;
Option A. 52.2² - 47.8² is a correct way of finding the area of the square frame
Option B. 2 × ((52.2×2.2) + (47.8×2.2)) = 440, is a correct way of finding the area of the square frame
Option C. 52.2 × 4.4 × 2 + 47.8 × 4.4 × 2 = 880, is not a correct way of finding the area of the square frame
The error is the thickness is 2.2 not 4.4
Option D. 100×(52.2 - 47.8) = (52.2 + 47.8) × (52.2 - 47.8) = 52.2² - 47.8² = 440, is a correct way of finding the area of the square frame
The answer is 0.5778 or 0.578 rounded
