Answer: It will take 1.875 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that time t required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working.

we have it expressed as

t∝1/N

where t is time  required to do a job

N is the number of people working.

Introducing our constant of proportionality, we have tht

t=k1/N

t=k/N

Now since it takes 5 hr for 3 cooks to prepare the food , K becomes

t=k/N

5=K/3

K=5X3=15

Given that there are 8 cooks, time required to prepare dinner will be

t=k/N

t=15/8

t=1.875 hours

PLZ HELP DUE AT 12
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The first one would be m^30n^20p^30  

And the second one would be a^2 / d^4  

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1, you have to multiply the inner exponents by the outer one so you get (m^12n^8) times (m^18n^12p^30). Then you mutiply the two together, so you add the exponents, where you get m^30n^20p^30.

For 2, since you're dividing, you have to subtract the exponents so you get a^2d^-4, but since you shouldn't have the negative you turn it into a^2 / d^4

Hope this helps :)
