$1000 because you divide 20 by 2 and get 50 then multiply that by $20. You would get 1000 dollars
Answer:
For the problem we have:
Sam had 14 people at the party.
The party lasted for 4 hours.
He paid $2 for each person's skate rental and 3 for each person's entry ticket.
Suppose we want to know how much Sam spent on the party.
But we do not know if the $2 of the skate rental are per hour or per two hours, or in total, for example, if the amount is per hour, then the total amount for each skate is $2*4 = $8, so in the case that the rental depends on the time, we can not solve this problem because we do not have enough information.
If the $2 are fixed (do not depend on the time that the party lasted) then the fact that the party lasted for 4 hours does not matter.
We can calculate as 14 persons* ($2 + $3) each = 14*$5 = $70, then you can see that in this case the 4 hours data is not necessary
B, C, and D are all correct.
Going out on a limb here and guessing that the function is

Please correct me if this isn't the case.
Recall that

It follows that

Answer:
Let's suppose that each person works at an hourly rate R.
Then if 4 people working 8 hours per day, a total of 15 days to complete the task, we can write this as:
4*R*(15*8 hours) = 1 task.
Whit this we can find the value of R.
R = 1 task/(4*15*8 h) = (1/480) task/hour.
a) Now suppose that we have 5 workers, and each one of them works 6 hours per day for a total of D days to complete the task, then we have the equation:
5*( (1/480) task/hour)*(D*6 hours) = 1 task.
We only need to isolate D, that is the number of days that will take the 5 workers to complete the task:
D = (1 task)/(5*6h*1/480 task/hour) = (1 task)/(30/480 taks) = 480/30 = 16
D = 16
Then the 5 workers working 6 hours per day, need 16 days to complete the job.
b) The assumption is that all workers work at the same rate R. If this was not the case (and each one worked at a different rate) we couldn't find the rate at which each worker completes the task (because we had not enough information), and then we would be incapable of completing the question.
