A company can send a maximum of 40 workers to complete a

Mathematics

rewona [7]3 years ago

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

For the sake of the problem, let's make female workers "x" and male workers "y".

x+y<40       This equation shows that the total number of workers has a max of 40.

30x+20y<1,000      This equation shows that the total cost the manager pays ($30 to each woman, $20 to each man) has a max of $1,000.  

Now you can solve for x and y.

X+y<40

-y       -y

X<-y+40

Substitute -y+40 in for X in the second equation

30(-y+40)+20y<1,000      

-30y+1200+20y<1,000         Distribute

-10y+1,200<1,000      Combine like terms

-10y<-200                   Subtract 1,200

y>20                Divide by -10; flip the sign

Since y>20, and y=male workers, you now know that the minimum

number of male workers he should send is 20

How to solve: a parade traveled 4 miles in 2 hours. how far did tge parade travel per minute?
jek_recluse [69]

There's a really easy way to convert any units to other units.

Right now, we have the fraction  (4 miles) / (2 hours).

We want to find a fraction that's exactly equal to that one,
but has the units of  (miles/minute)  or maybe  (feet/minute).

Just take the original fraction, and multiply it by some other
fractions.

Each fraction you multiply it by must have the value of ' 1 ' so
you don't change the value of the original fraction.  But it can
have different units, that cancel with other units to eventually
give you the units you want.

      (4 miles / 2 hours) times (1 hour / 60 minutes)

The second fraction is equal to ' 1 ', because the top and the bottom
have the same value ...  1 hour is the same thing as  60 minutes.

Multiply the fractions:  (4 miles x 1 hour) / (2 hour x 60 minutes)

Now you can cancel 'hour' from the top and the bottom, and you have

             (4 miles x 1) / (2 x 60 minutes)

               = (4 miles) / (120 minutes) 

               =          (4 / 120) mile/minute = 0.0333... mile / minute .

Let's do it again, go a little farther, and get an answer that
might mean more and feel more like an answer. 

   (4 miles) / (2 hours) x (5280 feet / mile) x (1 hour / 60 minutes)

The 2nd and 3rd fractions both have the value of ' 1 ', because
the top is equal to the bottom. 

Multiply all three fractions: 

     (4 miles x 5280 feet x 1 hour) / (2 hours x 1 mile x 60 minutes)

You can cancel both 'mile' and 'hour' out of the top and bottom,
and look what you have left:

     (4 x 5280 feet x 1) / (2 x 1 x 60 minutes)

  =  (4 x 5280) / (2 x 60)  feet / minutes

  =  (21,120 / 120)  feet/minute   =    176 feet per minute

Determine the product<br> (4.2x100). (5.7x100)
Tom [10]

Answer:

(4.2x100).(5.7x100) = 239.400

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine the product of (4.2x100).(5.7x100).

We know that when two numbers are multiplied together, the product is the same regardless of the order of the multiplicands. For that reason, we can multiply all together, and the result will be the same regardless of the order of the multiplicands:

Then:

(4.2x100).(5.7x100) = 4.2x100x5.7x100 = 420x570= 239.400
