umber of trees and inversely with the number of workers, how many trees could 9 workers plant in four and a half hours?​

Answer:

36 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that It takes four workers six hours and 45 minutes to plant 24 trees. Also that the time it takes to plant trees varies directly with the number of trees and inversely with the number of workers.

Thus,

t ∝ x/n

Where;

x is number of trees

n is number of workers

Now, opening the proportion symbol, we have;

t = kx/n

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

t = 6 hours 45 minutes = 6¾ hours = 6.75 hours

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

6.75 = 24k/4

k = 4 × 6.75/24

k = 1.125

Now, we want to know how many trees could 9 workers plant in four and a half hours (4.5 hours)

Applying the same as above and Plugging in k = 1.125, we have;

4.5 = 1.125x/9

x = 9 × 4.5/1.125

x = 36 trees

Is my prediction right? or no

Answer:

so does this go with what you got I would think C correct me if i'm wrong

Step-by-step When a population or group of something is declining, and the amount that decreases is proportional to the size of the population, it's called exponential decay. In exponential decay, the total value decreases but the proportion that leaves remains constant over time.

The new athletic facility on the downtown campus measures 0.74 km by 4 km. How many square
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The sports facility is 2,960,000 sq. m   in area.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of the sport facility = 0.74 km by 4 km

The Length of the facility = 4 km

The width of the facility = 0.74 km

Now, 1 km = 1000 meters

⇒ 4 km = 4 x (1000) = 4000 meters

and 0.74 km = 0.74 x (1000) = 740 meters

Now, AREA OF THE RECTANGLE = LENGTH x WIDTH

So, the area of the facility = 4000 m  x 740 km

                                         =  2,960,000 sq. m

Hence, the sports facility is 2,960,000 sq. m  in area.
