Number electic outlets rewired is directly proportional to time spent

4 = (1 ½)a

Let be the proportionality constant

A = 8/3

O = (8/3)(7.5)

The image for this is attached for reference. This problem can be used by the Pythagorean equation. To make solving convenient, let us see only one part of the tent. Hence, one side is half of the tend width which is 16/2ft. Height is 12 ft. The unknown side is the hypotenuse. The answer is:
$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2} 8^{2} + 12^{2} = c^{2} c = 14.4$
