Answer:

2 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Required man hours to complete the full job = 12 *15

                                                                           =180 Man hours

Required man hours to complete the 2/5 of the job = 180/5

                                                                                      = 36 Man hours

if 18 peoples are working,

required hours to complete the 2/5 of the job = 36 /18

                                                                            = 2 hours

Which is the equation of a parabola with a directrix at y = −3 and a focus at (5, 3)?
kramer

Answer:

y = 1/12 (x − 5)²

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this graphically without doing calculations.

The y component of the focus is y = 3.  Since this is above the directrix, we know this is an upward facing parabola, so it must have a positive coefficient.  That narrows the possible answers to A and C.

The x component of the focus is x = 5.  Since this is above the vertex, we know the x component of the vertex is also x = 5.

So the answer is A. y = 1/12 (x−5)².

But let's say this wasn't a multiple choice question and we needed to do calculations.  The equation of a parabola is:

y = 1/(4p) (x − h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex and p is the distance from the vertex to the focus.

The vertex is halfway between the focus and the directrix.  So p is half the difference of the y components:

p = (3 − (-3)) / 2

p = 3

k, the y component of the vertex, is the average:

k = (3 + (-3)) / 2

k = 0

And h, the x component of the vertex, is the same as the focus:

h = 5

So:

y = 1/(4×3) (x − 5)² + 0

y = 1/12 (x − 5)²

In a certain Algebra 2 class of 29 students, 5 of them play basketball and 16 of them play baseball. There are 10 students who p
kkurt [141]
ANSWER
P(both\:sports)= \frac{2}{29}

EXPLANATION
Let the number who plays both games be
x
Then those who play only basketball
= 5 - x

and those who play only baseball
= 16 - x

We were given that 10 students play neither sports.

We can then write the following equation,

(5 - x) + x + (16 - x) + 10 = 29

This implies that,

- x + x - x = 29 - 5 - 16 - 10

This simplifies to,

- x = - 2

This gives us,

x = 2

Therefore the number of students play both basketball and baseball is 2.

The probability that a student chosen from the class plays both basketball and baseball ball

= \frac{2}{29}
