If it takes eight men ten hours, it would take seven men nine hours, six men eight hours, five men seven hours and that brings us to the answer you need. It would take four men six hours.
Answer:
P(x) = (x-1)² (x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
P(x)=x³- 5x² + 7x-3 = x² (x-1) - 4x(x-1) + 3(x-1) = (x²-4x+3)(x-1)
P(x) = (x-1)(x-3)(x-1) = (x-1)² (x-3)
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 strokes through XM and MY indicate the segments are congruent, so
YM = MX , that is
8x - 24 = 3x + 1 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
5x - 24 = 1 ( add 24 to both sides )
5x = 25 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 5
