Answer: 27 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply inverse relation:

Since it takes 24 electricians 36 days to wire a new housing subdivision, the relation is:

24 (36)

For 32 electricians:

24(36) = 32 (x)

Solving for x (days)

864 =32x

864/32 =x

x= 27 days

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

take angle C as reference angle

using tan rule

tan C=oppposite/adjacent

tan C=6/12

tan C=0.5

C= $tan^{-1}$ 0.5

C=26.6 degree

Write the point-slope form of the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (2, 1). Pease show how!

mote1985 [20]

Check the picture below.

using a second for it, since it's a horizontal line, then say hmmm we'll use the y-intercept, or (0, 1), so the equation of a line that passes through (2,1) and (0,1)

$\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})\quad 
% (c,d)
&({{ 0}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{1-1}{0-2}\implies \cfrac{0}{-2}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-1=0(x-2)$

Which angles are pairs of alternate exterior angles

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

when a straight line cuts two or more parallel lines then the angles forming on the side of transversal line exteriorly opposite to eachother is called exterior alternative angle.

for eg if AB //CD and EF is a transversal line meeting the parallel lines at G abd H then the exterior alternative angle are angle EGB = angle CHF and angle AGE=angle DHF are two pairs of exterior alternative angle .

hope its helpful to uh !!!!!!

MATH 30 POINTS WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST<br><br> help please

natulia [17]

The fundamental behavior that's important here is that, as $t$ gets arbitrarily large, $a^t$ becomes smaller (decays) if $|a|$ and larger (grows) if $|a|>1$ .
