Answer:
<em>8 more men are needed to complete the job</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Proportions</u>
This problem can be solved by step-by-step reasoning applying proportions:
- 16 men working 9 hrs a day complete the job in 14 days
- 16 men working 1 hr a day complete the job in 14*9 days
The above statement stands because the fewer hours of work, the more time the job needs to be completed. Let's continue.
- 1 man working 1 hr a day complete the job in 14*9*16 days
The same reasoning applies here, fewer men=more days.
Now for the second condition. Increase the hours/day:
- 1 man working 7 hrs a day complete the job in 14*9*16/7 days
More hours/day=less days to complete the job
- x men working 7 hrs a day complete the job in 14*9*16/(7*x) days
We know this last time is 12 days, thus:

Solving for x:

24 men are needed now, this is an increase of 24-16=8 more men
8 more men are needed to complete the job
Answer:
Square base dimension = 15 inches
Maximum volume = 7200 inches^3
Step-by-step explanation:
V = x^2y ..... eq 1
Let the square base be x and the height y
Oversize formular is given by
Y + 4x = 92
Y= 92 - 4x .....eq 2
Put eq 2 into eq 1
V = x^2 ( 92 - 4x^3)
V= 92x^2 - 4x^3
Using derivatives
V= 184x - 12x^2
V'= 0 = 184x - 12x^2
X(184 -12x)
X=0
X = 184/12 = 15.33 approximately 15 inches
Maximum Volume = V= 92(15)^2 -5(15)^3
V= 92(225) - 4(3475)
V= 20700 - 13500
V= 7200 inches^3
Answer:
3,772 bottles.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the answer to this question, you want to multiply the two values.
There are 164 shelves and each shelve holds 23 bottles.
164 x 23 = 3,772
So, the shelves can hold a total of 3,772 bottles.
