Answer:

1 extra worker

Step-by-step explanation:

If three workers load the truck in 8 minutes we have that:

3 workers = 8 minutes

We know that if we wanted to reduce the time at, for example, half, we would need to increase the workers in a half. More generally, if we want to reduce the time in 1/X me need to multiply the workers by X.

Here me need to reduce the time in 6/8 as 8*6/8 = 6. So, we will need:

3*8/6 = 24/6 = 4 workers.

So, we will need 1 more worker as we already have 3.

Answer:

The initial height is the y-intercept of the graph

slope of the graph = -2

Jordon interprets the only the slope correctly.

Aral interprets the only the initial height correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = change in y ÷ change in x = (0 - 12) ÷ (6 - 0) = -12 ÷ 6 = -2

So the slope of the graph = -2

by inspection, the y-intercept = 12

Therefore, the equation for the line is   y = -2x + 12

Jordon interprets the only the slope correctly.

Aral interprets the only the initial height correctly

Which of the following statements is true?

Answer: choice 2) SAS

AB = DE is one pair of congruent sides that forms the first S in SAS. The other S in SAS refers to the pair of congruent sides BC = EF. The A in SAS is the angle pair angle B = angle E. Note how angle B and angle E are between the two pairs of congruent sides. The order of the letters matters because SAS is different from SSA, which is not a valid congruence argument. Check out the attached image.

Answer:

We conclude that (4, 2) is NOT a solution to the system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

y = x - 2

y = 3x + 4

Important Tip:

  • In order to determine whether (4, 2) is a solution to the system of equations or not, we need to solve the system of equations.

Let us solve the system of equations using the elimination method.

\begin{bmatrix}y=x-2\\ y=3x+4\end{bmatrix}

Arrange equation variables for elimination

\begin{bmatrix}y-x=-2\\ y-3x=4\end{bmatrix}

Subtract the equations

y-3x=4

-

\underline{y-x=-2}

-2x=6

Now, solve -2x = 6 for x

-2x=6

Divide both sides by -2

\frac{-2x}{-2}=\frac{6}{-2}

Simplify

x=-3

For y - x = -2 plug in x = -3

y-\left(-3\right)=-2

y+3=-2

Subtract 3 from both sides

y+3-3=-2-3

Simplify

y=-5

The solution to the system of equations is:

(x, y) = (-3, -5)

Checking the graph

From the graph, it is also clear that (4, 2) is NOT a solution to the system of equations because (-3, -5) is the only solution as we have found earlier.

Therefore, we conclude that (4, 2) is NOT a solution to the system of equations.
