If 8 people do a job in 40 hours. How many people need to do the job in 32 hours?

Mathematics
1 answer:
bija089 [108]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

6 people

Step-by-step explanation:

8/40 = x/32

multiply both sides by 32: 8(32)/40 = x

x = 256/40

= 6.4

≈ 6

(a) Find a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the planes −4x+2y−z=1 and 3x−2y+2z=1.
valentinak56 [21]

Find the intersection of the two planes. Do this by solving for <em>z</em> in terms of <em>x</em> and <em>y </em>; then solve for <em>y</em> in terms of <em>x</em> ; then again for <em>z</em> but only in terms of <em>x</em>.

-4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - <em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1

3<em>x</em> - 2<em>y</em> + 2<em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -4<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> - 1 = (1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>)/2

==>   -8<em>x</em> + 4<em>y</em> - 2 = 1 - 3<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em>

==>   -5<em>x</em> + 2<em>y</em> = 3

==>   <em>y</em> = (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2

==>   <em>z</em> = -4<em>x</em> + 2 (3 + 5<em>x</em>)/2 - 1 = <em>x</em> + 2

So if we take <em>x</em> = <em>t</em>, the line of intersection is parameterized by

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨<em>t</em>, (3 + 5<em>t</em> )/2, 2 + <em>t</em>⟩

Just to not have to work with fractions, scale this by a factor of 2, so that

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

(a) The tangent vector to <em>r</em><em>(t)</em> is parallel to this line, so you can use

<em>v</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>t</em> = d/d<em>t</em> ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩ = ⟨2, 5, 2⟩

or any scalar multiple of this.

(b) (-1, -1, 1) indeed lies in both planes. Plug in <em>x</em> = -1, <em>y</em> = 1, and <em>z</em> = 1 to both plane equations to see this for yourself. We already found the parameterization for the intersection,

<em>r</em><em>(t)</em> = ⟨2<em>t</em>, 3 + 5<em>t</em>, 4 + 2<em>t</em>⟩

-2/3*3/5+5/2-3/5*1/6​
Kipish [7]

Answer:

2and19/90

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/3*3/5= _2/5

-2/5+5/2-(2/3×1/6)

-2/5+5/2-1/9

21/10-1/9

=199/90

=2/19/90

How do you explain how to find the area of a combined rectangle
Olin [163]

Answer:

I explain down below:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you divide the combined rectangle into separate parts. Then you find the area of the first rectangle. Then the second and/or third one.

After all the areas have been solved, you add all of the areas together.

Hope this helps!
