Have a great day!
Hi there! There are no numbers listed, therefore I'm unable to do answer your question. Are there numbers included in the problem?
Answer:
5x + 10y = 90
Step-by-step explanation:
X is the number of times she takes the 5 mile, so the total distance would be 5x. Y is the number of times she takes the 10 mile, so the total distance would be 10y. And together they equal 90 miles, so 5x + 10y =90. Hope this helps.
Since Emily is walking at a constant speed, we can solve this using proportions, equating ratios of distance/time.
The first ratio is 3/4 miles/1/4 hour
The second ratio is 1 mile/ x hour
Equating the two ratios: 3/4 / 1/4 = 1/x
3 = 1/x
x = 1/3 hour
Answer: it will take 5 people 6.4 hours to do the work.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of hours required to do a job varies inversely as the number of people working. Let h represent the number of hours required to do the job. Let p represent the number of people working. Therefore,
h is inversely proportional to p
Introducing a constant of variation, k, it means that
h = k/p
It takes 8 hours for 4 people to paint the inside of a house. Therefore
8 = k/4
k = 8×4 = 32
The formula becomes
h = 32/p
To determine how many hours it will take 5 people to do the work, we will substitute p = 5 into the formula. It becomes
h = 32/5 = 6.4 hours
