It took James 5h to paint an 8ft by 24ft wall. At this rate, how long would it take him to paint a 12ft by 36ft wall

1 answer:

7 0

8 * 24 feet = 192 sq feet per 5 hours

12* 36 = 432 square feet

432 is 2.25 times the area of 192 square feet

So, it takes 5 * 2.25 = 11.25 hours

PLEASE HELP!

emmainna [20.7K]

Use the given recursion and starting value of $x_0 = 2.4$ to find $x_1$ :

$x_1 = \dfrac{x_0 + \frac6{x_0}}2 = \dfrac{2.4 + \frac{6}{2.4}}2 = 2.45$

Do the same for $x_2$ and $x_3$ :

$x_2 = \dfrac{x_1 + \frac6{x_1}}2 = \dfrac{2.45 + \frac6{2.45}}2 \approx 2.44949$

$x_3 = \dfrac{x_2+\frac6{x_2}}2 \approx \dfrac{2.44949 + \frac6{2.44949}}2 \approx \boxed{2.44949}$

(That's not a mistake. This just tells you that the 2nd and 3rd iterates are very close together and have at least the same first 5 digits after the decimal.)

Convert 153 degrees into radians to the nearest to decimals places

STatiana [176]

Since we know there are π radians in 180°, then how many radians are there in 153°?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
radians&de grees\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\pi &180\\
x&153
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\pi }{x}=\cfrac{180}{153}\implies \cfrac{\pi \cdot 153}{180}=x\implies \stackrel{simplified}{\cfrac{17\pi }{20}}=x$
