Answer:

42 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

I think this problem should read:

"If it takes 54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls. How many minutes does it take 6 people to paint 7 walls?"

The fewer people working, the more time it takes, so to go from more people to fewer people, multiply the time to give a larger number. To go from fewer people to more people, divide the time to give a smaller number.

The more walls, the more time it takes, so to go from fewer walls to more walls, multiply the time to give a larger number. To go from more walls to fewer walls, divide the time to give a smaller number.

"it takes 54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls"

then

it takes 9 minutes for 4 people to paint 1 wall (1/6 of the walls in 1/6 of the time)

and

it takes 36 minutes for 1 person to paint 1 wall (1/4 of the people take 4 times longer)

then

it takes 252 minutes for 1 people to paint 7 walls (7 walls take 7 times the time of 1 wall)

and

it takes 42 minutes for 6 people to paint 7 walls (6 people work 6 times faster than 1)

Answer:

230

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate how long it will take one person to paint one wall.

It will take 1/3 of the time to paint one wall. So it will take 46/3 minutes for 10 people to paint one wall.

For only one person, it will take 10 times as long, so it will take 46/3 * 10 =460/3 minutes for one person to paint one wall.

So, the number of minutes it will take for one person to paint 6 walls is 460/3 * 6= 920 .

The number of minutes it will take for 4 people to paint 6 walls is 920÷4=230

\mathsf \purple{ v = \frac{1}{2} (a + b) \times h \times l}

\mathsf \pink{v =  \frac{1}{2} (5 + 12) \times 6.1  \times 16}

\mathsf \purple{v =  \frac{1}{2} (17) \times 6.1 \times 16}

\mathsf \pink{v = 8 \frac{1}{2}  \times 6.1 \times 16}

\mathsf \purple{v = 829.6 {mi}^{3} }

Anthony has 400 marbles. He sells 1/4 of the marbles to Jayveon, he gives 10% to Abdul and donates 10 marbles to his little brot
Georgia [21]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of marbles = 400

Anthony sells 1/4 of the marbles to Jayveon. This will be:

= 1/4 × 400

= 100 marbles

Anthony gives 10% to Abdul. Abdul will have:

= 10% × 400

= 0.1 × 400

= 40 marbles

He gave 10 marbles to his little brother.

The number of marbles that Anthony has left will be:

= 400 - (100 + 40 + 10)

= 400 - 150

= 250 marbles

Use: Ck = k! (n-k)!
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

3 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Combinations formula:

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this question:

2 meats from a set of 3(steak, fish or chicken). So

C_{3,2} = \frac{3!}{2!1!} = 3

3 ways.
