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

Addison wants to ride her bicycle more than 80 miles this week. She has already ridden her bicycle 18 miles. Which inequality co
Alex
She would need to ride her bike more than 10.33 miles per day: x > 10.33

She has 62 miles left to ride for the week. To find the average per day, we just need to divide that amount by 6. 

Dividing will give us 10 and one-third, or about 10.33.

Somebody, please help
SashulF [63]
F(x) can be written as:
f(x) = Asin(2x); where A is the amplitude and the period of the function is half that of a normal sin function.
f(π/4) = 4
4 = Asin(2(π/4))
4 = Asin(π/2)
A = 4
Amplitude of g(x) = 1/2 * amplitude of f(x)
A for g(x) = 2
g(x) = 2sin(x)
