Answer:
16 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
let t be time, n the number of computers and w the number of workers, then
t = 
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition n = 30, w = 6 and t = 10 , then
10 = 
( multiply both sides by 6 )
60 = 30k ( divide both sides by 30 )
2 = k
t = 
← equation of variation
When w = 5 and n = 40 , then
t = 
= 
= 16 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
point slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)
m= y2-y1/x2-x1
input numbers
so slope:
m=(9--8)/(-7--8)
(-)×(-)=+
(+)×(-)=(-)
so m=17/1
m=17
now point slope
y--8=17(x--8)
y+8=17x+136
to get y alone we have to use opposite operations
y and 8 are adding so we need to subtract on both sides
y+8-8=17x+136-8
y=17x+128
