Answer:
48 - 8c
Step-by-step explanation:
let c be the number of coworkers
48 - 8c would be the expression because it starts with 48 and for every coworker 8 is subtracted.
Let's first break it down to the time 8 people need for one wall. That would be 10 minutes, right? If one person would have to do it in stead of 8, you'd expect him to take 80 minutes.
To paint 7 walls, he would nee 7x80 = 560 minutes. 10 people would do that 10 times faster, ie., 56 minutes.
I know puzzles like these always have a mindtrick. Did I miss anything?? ;-)
5: THEO = what should happen
EXP = Wha actually happens.
7/8x²-3/4x - 5/8x²-1/4x+2
x²/4-x+2
