so two fellows did all the carpeting in 10 days.
now, how long did "1" fellow work only? well, it worked for 10 days.
how long did the other fellow work for? well, it was working alongside the first one, and it was there for also 10 days.
so the two guys working together, really did 10+10 = 20 "days worth of work". So that the whole carpeting job can be done in 20 "days worth of work".
now if we want to finish it in 4 days, 20 ÷ 4 = 5.
so if we hire 5 guys, since each one will do 4 days worth, 5*4 = 20 <- the whole job.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
interior angle + exterior angle are supplementary
interior angle = 180° - exterior angle
⇒ interior angle = 180° - 135° = 45°
and interior angle = 180° - 100° = 80°
The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°
To find the third interior angle, subtract the sum of the 2 interior angles from 180
third interior angle = 180° - (45 + 80 )° = 180° - 125° = 55°
interior angles are 45°, 55° and 80°
Answer:
10.6 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The corner where Starbucks is located could be considered to be the right angle in a right triangle having legs of 8 miles (distance to you) and 7 miles (distance to your friend). The straight-line distance (d) from you to your friend is the hypotenuse of that triangle. Its length can be found from the Pythagorean theorem.
d² = 8² +7²
d² = 64 +49 = 113
d = √113 ≈ 10.6
You and your friend are about 10.6 miles from each other.
X-5=11
+5 both sides
x=16
hope this helped
