Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this, we must figure out the minimum amount we can add 32 to itself to reach 150. This means that we must multiply 32 by our desired amount, x, to reach the amount of hours closest to 150 (but above/equal to it). To find x, we can divide 150 by 32, and if it gives us a number with no decimals or remainders, that is x, as it is the smallest amount of people to get above/equal to 150. If it gives us a remainder/decimal, we must round up, as we cannot have a part of a person and we must get the work done, so we must get at least 150 hours. 150/32 is 4.6 something, so we must round up. 5 is our answer

Answer:

  c.  d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in coordinates B and C is (14, 17) -(2, 1) = (12, 16). When the figure is scaled by 0.25, that difference becomes ...

  0.25(12, 16) = (3, 4)

The length of a line segment with those coordinate differences is ...

  d = √(3² +4²) = √25 = 5 . . . . matches selection c.

The length of each side of the square is decreased by 2 inches, so the perimeter is now 48 inches . What was the original length
Jet001 [13]
X=original length of each side of the square.
perimeter: sum of all sides=4(length of the side)
The length of each side of the new square will be= (x-2)
we can suggest this equation:

4(x-2)=48

We solve this equation:
4(x-2)=48
4x-8=48
4x=48+8
4x=56
x=56/4
x=14

Answer: the original length of each side of the square would be 14 in.
