Let's first break it down to the time 8 people need for one wall. That would be 10 minutes, right? If one person would have to do it in stead of 8, you'd expect him to take 80 minutes.
To paint 7 walls, he would nee 7x80 = 560 minutes. 10 people would do that 10 times faster, ie., 56 minutes.
I know puzzles like these always have a mindtrick. Did I miss anything?? ;-)
Answer:1 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is C, your b in the equation is 4, and your slope is 1/2. Starting from four, you move up one and right two which means the slope is 1/2.
Answer:
2, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so for this you have to substitute. y=4 so you put a 4 where the y is. This becomes
4 - 3x = -2 We can already rule out (2,2) and (4,2) Why? Because the y is not a 4. So it’s gonna be either (0,4) or (2,4). Now, we have to find x. We have to isolate it. You do this by subtracting 4 from both sides.
4 - 4 - 3x = -2 - 4 Now Simplify
-3x = -6 Why -6? Because you can’t subtract a positive from a negative so it becomes -2 + -4. Since they are both negatives, you just add them together, then put the negative sign.
Now divide -3 from both sides. Which becomes
x = 2
