Answer:

It would last for 3.2 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

100 men = 8 days

10 men = 0.8 days

60 men = 0.8 x 6 = 4.8 days

Now you subtract the days of 100 men and 60 men

8 - 4.8 = 3.2 days

Hope this helps!

Y=mx+b
since the variable that will increase or deacrease is the number of books
then we set it to x
x=number of books
the member fee is constant so
b=10
the amount of money will increase by 5.99 per book so
m=5.99

the total amount of money will be our function since it depends on x
y=total amount of money
y=5.99x+10
total amount of money=5.99(number of books)+membership fee

The variable z is inversely proportional to x. When x is 16, z has the value 0.875. What is the value of z when x= 21?

ziro4ka [17]

For $z$ and $x$ to be inversely proportional, there must be some constant $k$ such that

$zx=k$

Given that $z=0.875$ when $x=16$ , it follows that

$0.875\cdot16=k\implies k=14$

Then when $x=21$ , we have

$21z=14\implies z=\dfrac{14}{21}=\approx0.667$
