Answer: It would take 4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

20/2=10 160/2=80 16/2=8

80/2=40 8/2=4 so 4 hours :)

Answer:

8 days

Step-by-step explanation:

160÷16=10 so 20 hens can produce 10 eggs a day. so if it were 10 hens it would be half of that making it 5 eggs a days. 40÷5=8 so it would take 8 days

13. En un pueblo, 5 personas escucharon una noticia. En una hora, cada una de ellas
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

En 5 horas se habrá enterado todo el pueblo.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sabemos que en un pueblo 5 personas escucharon una noticia.

Una hora más tarde, cada una de ellas le contó la noticia a otras 5.

Luego, éstas contaron la noticia a otras 5 y así sucesivamente.

Nadie cuenta ni escucha la noticia más de una vez y en ese pueblo hay un poco más de 19000 habitantes.

La ecuación a desarrollar para resolver el problema es la siguiente :

Comenzamos con 5 personas que escucharon la noticia a la ''hora 0''.

Una hora más tarde, cada una de ellas le contó a 5 personas, es decir , pasada la primera hora tendremos :

5+5^{2}=30 (I)

Las 5 personas originales de la ''hora 0'' más 25 personas que se enteraron pasada la primera hora. La ecuación que planteamos es la siguiente :

5^{1}+5^{2}+5^{3}+...+5^{x}>19000 (II)

Buscamos el valor de x que satisface la ecuación (II).

Probando y realizando las sumas encontramos que :

5^{1}+5^{2}+5^{3}+5^{4}+5^{5}+5^{6}>19000

19530>19000

El valor de x que satisface (II) es x=6.

Para hallar el número de horas nos fijamos que en (I) el valor del mayor exponente del 5 es el número 2. Para ese valor 2, el tiempo que pasó es una hora.

Entonces para nuestro x=6, el número de horas que pasaron son 5 horas (1 menos que el valor de x)

Todo el pueblo se habrá enterado en 5 horas de la noticia.

Help please. solve for x and y.
ohaa [14]
To solve for x and y, you need to know if the triangles are congruent. They are because of their congruent sides and exterior angles are the same measure.
Now you know that the triangles are congruent, you can set up a proportion for the side lengths you are looking for.
For x...

22/10=x/12. Then cross mutiply. x =26.4
You can do this because the triangles are congruent.
For y...

22/10 =37.4/y. Then you cross multiply. y=17

The correct answer is B.

Please help don't guess
12345 [234]

So, just divide:

52.50 / 6 = 8.75

This means that she earns $8.75 an hour.

If this is her hourly salary, then multiply 8.75 x 11

8.75 x 11 = 96.25

So, if Paula works for 11 hours,  she will earn $96.25!
