Answer:

First statement: 10 road workers take 5 days to complete a work, working 2 hours a day.

Let us calculate how many days 2 workers will need, if they were to work at the same pace (i.e. each working 2 hours a day). The workforce is now decreased to 2 divided by 10 = 1/5 (i.e. one-fifth).

Therefore proportionately, the time will increase to 5 days divided by 1/5, (i.e. 5 / (1/5) = 25 days.

We now know that 2 workers will need 25 days to finish the work, if they work for 2 hors a day.

Now the question is what will happen if the two people work 5 hours per day, instead of 2 hours per day?

The labor they put in has increased to 5 divided by 2 = 2.5 (i.e. 2 and half times).

Consequently, the time needed to finish the work will decrease to 25 divided by 2.5 (i.e. ( 25 / 2.5 ) = 10. days.

The answer : 10 Days.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that the volume = 88 cubic feet

Then:

$L = 3w --- (1)volume = l \times w \times h \\ \\ 88 = (3w) \times w \times h \\ \\ 3w^2 h= 88 \\ \\ h = \dfrac{88}{3w^2}--- (2) \\ \\$

The construction cost now is:

$C = 4(l \times w) + 2 ( w \times h) + 2(l \times h) \\ \\ C = 4(3w^2) + 2(w \times \dfrac{88}{3w^2}) + 2(3w \times \dfrac{88}{3w^2}) \\\\ C = 12w^2 + \dfrac{176}{3w} + \dfrac{176}{w}$

Now, to determine the minimum cost:

$\dfrac{dC}{dw}= 0 \\ \\ \implies 24 w - \dfrac{176}{3w^2}- \dfrac{176}{w^2}=0 \\ \\ 24 w ^3 = \dfrac{176}{w^2}(\dfrac{1}{3}+1) \\ \\ 24 w ^3 = \dfrac{176(4)}{3} \\ \\ w^3 = \dfrac{88}{3(3)}$

$w = \dfrac{88}{3(3)}^{1/3} \ feet$

Now;

$length = 3 ( \dfrac{88}{3(3)})^{1/3} \ feet$

$height = ( 88})^{1/3} (3)^{1/3} \ feet$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric Ratios </u>

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios.

The longest side of the right triangle is called the hypotenuse and the other two sides are the legs.

Selecting any of the acute angles as a reference, it has an adjacent side and an opposite side. The trigonometric ratios are defined upon those sides.

The image provided shows a right triangle whose hypotenuse is given. We are required to find the value of both legs.

Let's pick the angle of 30°. Its adjacent side is y. We can use the cosine ration, which is defined as follows:

$\displaystyle \cos 30^\circ=\frac{\text{adjacent leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

$\displaystyle \cos 30^\circ=\frac{y}{4\sqrt{2}}$

Solving for y:

$y=4\sqrt{2}\cos 30^\circ$

Since:

$\cos 30^\circ=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=4\sqrt{2}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}$

Now we use the sine ratio:

$\displaystyle \sin 30^\circ=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

$\displaystyle \sin 30^\circ=\frac{x}{4\sqrt{2}}$

Solving for x:

$x=4\sqrt{2}\sin 30^\circ$

Since:

$\sin 30^\circ=\frac{1}{2}:$

$\displaystyle x=4\sqrt{2}\frac{1}{2}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}$

The choices are not clear, but it seems like the correct answer is C.

$\boxed{\displaystyle y=2\sqrt{6}}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle x=2\sqrt{2}}$

Can someone please simplify ln e^4/8 showing me how to do it

Otrada [13]

Answer:

e ^1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

All you do is take the fraction (4/8) and just simplify that part

4 divided by 2 = 2

8 divided by 2 =4

I got 2/4 but I can simplify more

2 divided by 2= 1

4 divided by 2 = 2

Now I got 1/2

And I would just leave e alone so my answer is e ^1/2

Do you kinda get what im saying?

Llana [10]

Answer:

d. 8°

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears as though you intend ∠ECF and ∠ACB to be vertical angles, hence the same measure, 47°. The angle of interest, ∠BCD, is added to that to make ∠ACD, which is 55°. The added angle must be 55° -47° = 8°.

A one pound brisket takes 50 minutes to cook at 375°F. How long would it take a 3 1/2 pound brisket to cook?

kenny6666 [7]

Assuming its the same temp, use this equation for pounds and minutes then solve:

$\frac{1}{3.5} = \frac{50}{x}$

cross multiply

50(3.5) = 175 minutes

it'll take an 2 hours 55 minutes
