If it takes 4 people to get a job done in 20 hours, then in 10 hours, it will take 2 people to complete the same job.
To find out how many people are needed to do this job in 10 hours, we can see that we got to 10 hours by dividing 20 by two so, to see how many people are needed to complete this same job in ten hours, we would just divide 4 people by 2 which is 2 people.
So, in conclusion, if it takes a certain job to be done in 20 hours by 4 people, then it would take 10 hours for that same job to be completed by 2 people.
Glad I could help!

A swimming pool can be filled in 18 hours if water enters through a pipe​ alone, or in 25 hours if water enters through a hose a
pychu [463]
I am not sure, but this is what I got:
 <span>Pipe ALONE = 18 hours 

Pipe ALONE in 1 hour = 1/18 of the pool 

Hose ALONE in 1 hour = 1/25 of the pool 

TOGETHER in 1 HOUR = 1/18 +1/25 = 43/450 

TOGETHER they will fill the pool in 450/43 hours 

So 5/6 of the pool will take 5/6 X 450/43 = 2250/ 258 = 8.7209302 hours OR 

8 hours AND 43.26 minutes ANSWER

EASY MATH!!! GIVING BRAINLIEST!!
musickatia [10]

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets take our 50 dollars.

Next, take your increase of 5%. Remember, 5% is 0.05, and it is a increase of 5%, so we are multipling 50 by 1.05.

Before we start multiplying, lets recall that this occurs twice(2 years), but this doesnt mean we multiply 50 by 1.10. No, we just mutiply 50 by 1.05 2 times:

50*1.05

=

52.5

52.5*1.05

=

55.25

So your answer is 55 dollars(rounding down).

Hope this helps!

In a right triangle ΔABC, the length of leg AC = 5 ft and the hypotenuse AB = 13 ft. Find the length of the angle bisector of an
Sauron [17]

Answer: the length of the angle bisector of angle ∠A is 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the right angle triangle ABC is shown in the attached photo

Looking at triangle ABC,

cos θ = adjacent side/hypotenuse side

cos θ = 5/13 = 0.3846

θ = 67.38 degrees

The bisector of an angle divides it into two equal halves. The bisector is represented by line AD.

θ/2 = 67.38/2 = 33.69 degrees

Therefore,

Cos 33.69 = 5/AD

AD × Cos 33.69 = 5

AD = 5/Cos 33.69 = 5/0.832

AD = 6 ft
