Answer would be a (-1, ten-thirds) :)
Tom--------------
>10 sq ft per minute
Tim-------------------
>3.5*10=35 sq ft per minute
Both painters (10+35)=45
sq ft per minute
let's assume a cubic unit crate----------> V1=1*1*1=1 feet3
<span>the total surface of the cube is S1=6*(1*1)=6 </span>sq
ft
if the volume of the cube increases twice
V2=2 feet3 ------------------- > 2=x*x*x------------- >x=2^(1/3)
And the S2=6*(2^(1/3)*<span> 2</span>^(1/3)=9.5244 sq ft
V2/V1=9.5244/6=1.5874
Therefore
If Tim and Tom-----------------------
> take 1 day----------- > to paint a crate V1
For the crate V2------------- > take 1.5874 days
assuming an 8-hour work day
0.5874*8=4.70 hr-------------- > 4 h 42 min
The answer is 1 day 4h 42 min
4.3125 is the answer to that equation
The answer is 12. Hope this helps!
