Answer:
<h2> In 8 hours he will set 1200 bricks</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, we are expected to estimate the number of bricks he can set in 8 hours.
let us convert hours to minutes we have
60 min make 1 hour
x min make 8 hours
cross multiply
x= 60*8
x= 480 min
We are assuming the same rate with which he sets 2.5 brick is the same as the rate with which he will set bricks for the 8 hours windows
so if the bricklayer sets
2.5 bricks in 1min
y bricks in 480 min
Cross multiply we have
y=2.5*480
y= 1200 bricks
hence in 8 hours, he will set 1200 bricks
I use a bit of a different looking formula.
A(t)=P(1+r/n)^nt
P=amount of money. (500)
r= rate (in decimal. 4%=0.04)
n=number of times per year (1 in this problem)
t=amount of time. (5 years)
Plugged in it looks like this:
A(t)=500 (1+ 0.04/1)^1x5
Then I put it into my calculator like this:
0.04/1+ 0.04
Then add one to the above answer:
0.04+1=1.04
Then raise the above answer to the 1x5:
1.04^5=1.2166......
Then multiply the above answer by 500:
1.2166.... x 500=608.3264512

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
