Two workers finished a job in 12 days. How long would it take each worker to do the job by himself if one of the workers needs 1
Lorico [155]

Two workers finished a job in 7.5 days.

How long would it take each worker to do the job by himself if one of the workers needs 8 more days to finish the job than the other worker?

let t = time required by one worker to complete the job alone

then

(t+8) = time required by the other worker (shirker)

let the completed job = 1

A typical shared work equation

7.5%2Ft + 7.5%2F%28%28t%2B8%29%29 = 1

multiply by t(t+8), cancel the denominators, and you have

7.5(t+8) + 7.5t = t(t+8)

7.5t + 60 + 7.5t = t^2 + 8t

15t + 60 = t^2 + 8t

form a quadratic equation on the right

0 = t^2 + 8t - 15t - 60

t^2 - 7t - 60 = 0

Factor easily to

(t-12) (t+5) = 0

the positive solution is all we want here

t = 12 days, the first guy working alone

then

the shirker would struggle thru the job in 20 days.

At the rate of $2.00 per square foot the cost of painting the rectangular board with a semicircular top shown in the figure is $
Elenna [48]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.
<span> 
it consists of a rectangle, dimensions  L = 4ft and W = 3ft = Ar = 4ft x 3ft = 12 ft^2

</span>then, you have one half of the area of the circle that has diameter  R = 3ft - radius will be r = 1.5ft the area of that half will be:

Ac = r^2 \pi/ 2
= (1.5 ft)^2 x 3.14 / 2
= 2.25 ft^2 x 3.4/2 
= 7.065 ft^2/ 2 
= 3.5325ft^2

A = Ar + Ac
A = 12ft^2 + 3.5325ft^2
A = 15.5325ft^2

<span>At the rate of $2 per square foot, the cost will be: 
$ 15.5325*2 = 31.07 </span>
