Mr. Vella can build a brick wall in 4 days. His apprentice can build the same wall in 6 days. After working alone for 3 days, Mr
Vitek1552 [10]
Mr. Vella can build the wall in 4 days, however only works on it for 3 days. That means that he has completed 75% of the and is leaving 25% for his apprentice.

We need to figure out how long it takes the apprentice to build 25% of a wall. We know he can build 100% of a wall in 6 days, so dividing 6 days by 4 will give us our answer.

6/4 = 3/2 = 1.5 days

It took the apprentice 1.5 days to finish the wall.

Calculate pt3 such that a line from pt1 to pt3 is perpendicular to the line from pt1 to pt2, and the distance between pt1 and pt
Leni [432]
Let the point_1 = p₁ = (1,4)
and      point_2 = p₂ = (-2,1)
and      Point_3 = p₃ = (x,y)

The line from point_1 to point_2 is L₁ and has slope = m₁
The line from point_1 to point_3 is L₂ and has slope = m₂
m₁ = Δy/Δx = (1-4)/(-2-1) = 1
m₂ = Δy/Δx = (y-4)/(x-1)
L₁⊥L₂ ⇒⇒⇒⇒ m₁ * m₂ = -1
∴ (y-4)/(x-1) = -1 ⇒⇒⇒ (y-4)= -(x-1)
(y-4) = (1-x) ⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒ equation (1)

The distance from point_1 to point_2 is d₁
The distance from point_1 to point_3 is d₂
d = \sqrt{Δx^2+Δy^2}
d₁ = \sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(1-4)^2}
d₂ = \sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-4)^2}
d₁ = d₂
∴ \sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(1-4)^2} = \sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-4)^2} ⇒⇒ eliminating the root
∴(-2-1)²+(1-4)² = (x-1)²+(y-4)²
 (x-1)²+(y-4)² = 18
from equatoin (1)  y-4 = 1-x
∴(x-1)²+(1-x)² = 18            ⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒ note: (1-x)² = (x-1)²
2 (x-1)² = 18
(x-1)² = 9
x-1 = \pm \sqrt{9} = \pm 3
∴ x = 4 or x = -2
∴ y = 1 or y = 7

Point_3 = (4,1)  or  (-2,7)

You have saved 18000 for a down payment on a house. Your bank requires a minimum down payment of 11%. What is the maximum price
zhenek [66]

Money saved for down payment = 18000

Minimum down payment required by the bank = 11%

Let the maximum price that can be offered be = P

\frac{11}{100}P=18000

11P=1800000

P=163636.36

Hence a maximum price of 163636.36 can be offered for a home that can have a down payment of 18000.

Given is 3 groups of elderly residents at the Bayside Residential Home. One of the home has 14 members, another one with 23 members and the third one with 17 members. Supposing that 'c' represent the cost of trip per resident.

Calculation,

Total of residence

14+23+17

= 54 residents

Hence, since there are 54 residents, total cost 54c.
