A construction team gives an estimate of three months to repave a large stretch of a very busy road with their core crew of 9 pe

ople. The government responds that it is too much of an inconvenience to have this busy road obstructed for three months, so the job must be completed in one month. If the relationship between construction time and crew members is inversely proportional, how many crew members does the construction team need if they are to complete the job in one month

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

9 crew members complete a job in 3 months

Number of crew members is inversely proportion to construction time :

Let :

Crew members = m

Construction time = t

m α 1 /t

m = k/t

m = 9 ; t = 3

9 = k /3

k = 27

If t = 1 (one month)

m =?

m = k/t

m = 27 / 1

Hence;

m = 27 * 1

m = 27 workers

a cone with a radius 3 units is shown below. it’s volume is 57 cubic units. find the height of the cone
ipn [44]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the radius of the cone is 3 units.

The volume of the cone is 57 cubic units.

We need to determine the height of the cone.

<u>Height of the cone:</u>

The height of the cone can be determined using the formula,

V=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h

Substituting the values, r = 3 and V = 57, we get;

57=\frac{1}{3} (3.14) (3)^2 h

Simplifying the terms, we get;

57=\frac{1}{3} (3.14) (9) h

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 3, we get;

171= (3.14) (9) h

171=28.26 h

Dividing both sides of the equation by 28.26, we get;

6.05=h

Thus, the height of the cone is 6.05 units.

Work out angle bxc. give a reason for each angle you work out
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

∠ BXC = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ XBC and ∠ AXY are corresponding angles and are congruent, then

∠ XBC = 55°

Since XB = XC , then Δ XBC is isosceles and the 2 base angles are congruent.

∠ BXC = 180° - (55 + 55)° ← angle sum of triangle

∠ BXC = 180° - 110° = 70°

There is a triangle with a perimeter of 63 cm, one side of which is 21 cm. Also, one of the medians is perpendicular to one of t
NemiM [27]

Answer:

21cm; 28cm; 14cm

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no info in the problem/s  text which one of the triangle's  side is 21 cm. That is why we have to try all possible variants.

Let the triangle is ABC . Let the AK is the angle A bisector and BM is median.

Let O is AK and BM cross point.

Have a look to triangle ABM.  AO is the bisector and AOB=AOM=90 degrees (means that AO is as bisector as altitude)

=> triangle ABM is isosceles => AB=AM  (1)

1. Let AC=21   So AM=21/2=10.5 cm

So AB=10.5 cm as well.  So BC= P-AB-AC=63-21-10.5=31.5 cm

Such triangle doesn' t exist ( is impossible), because the triangle's inequality doesn't fulfill.  AB+AC>BC ( We have 21+10.5=31.5 => AB+AC=BC)

2. Let AB=21 So AM=21 and AC=42 .So  BC= P-AB-AC=63-21-42=0 cm- such triangle doesn't exist.

3. Finally let BC=21 cm. So AB+AC= 63-21=42 cm

We know (1) that AB=AM so AC=2*AB.  So AB+AC=AB+2*AB=3*AB

=>3*AB=42=> AB=14 cm => AC=2*14=28 cm.

Let check if this triangle exists ( if the triangle's inequality fulfills).

BC+AB>AC    21+14>28 - correct=> the triangle with the sides' length 21cm,14 cm, 28cm exists.

This variant is the only possible solution of the given problem.

Hmmm lemme do the first one only

\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ &#10;(x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2&#10;\qquad &#10;center~~(\stackrel{5}{ h},\stackrel{3}{ k})\qquad \qquad &#10;radius=\stackrel{2}{ r}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;(x-5)^2+(y-3)^2=2^2\implies (x-5)^2+(y-3)^2=4
