We know that
<span>An electrician can wire a house in ------------> 20 hours
so
100%----------------> 20 hours
 X-------------------> 12 hour
x=12*100/20----> x=60%

that means 
</span><span>the apprentice in 12 hours complete the (100-60)----> 40%

</span>the apprentice in 12 hours complete -------> 40%
x hours------------------------------------> 100%
x=100*12/40-----> x=30 hours

the answer is
30 hours

What is FG?<br><br> NEED HELP QUICK!!
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

FG = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

FD is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides, that is

\frac{24}{54} = \frac{x}{x+10} ( cross- multiply )

54x = 24(x + 10)

54x = 24x + 240 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

30x = 240 ( divide both sides by 30 )

x = 8

Then

FG = x + 10 = 8 + 10 = 18

H(W) = 80/w<br> What is the domain of the function?
AnnyKZ [126]

To find the domain, we find every single value that can exist along the x axis.

One can notice here that w is in the denominator, which means a value doesn't exist at 0, because we can't have 0 in the denominator.

Answer:

(-∞,0) U (0,∞)
