15 electricians worked for 24 days to the whole job, now, there are 15 of them, so on any given day, each electrician worked one whole day, in 24 days, that one electrician worked 24 days total.
now, there were 15 electricians on any given day though, since each one of them worked the whole day that one day, so the "days work worth" on a day is 15, so the house gets 15days worth of work because of that.
so how many "days worth" did all 15 do on the 24 days, well, 15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15+15, namely 15 * 24, or 360 days worth of work.
since it takes 360 days worth of work to do the whole wiring, in how many days would 18 electricians do it? 360/18.
I'm pretty sure the answer is A
To find the missing constant term, we want to think about what two numbers would add up to 2. Of the numbers we've thought of, we want to find the numbers that are the same. In this case, that would be 1 and 1. If we multiply, or square, 1 and 1 together, we get 1. So, the missing constant term in the perfect square given here would be 1.
Hope this helps!! :)
so the right answer is -2.
