Answer:

17 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of days in which 3 men can finish a house repair job = 10 days

Number of days in which 1 man can finish a house repair job = \frac{10}{3} days

Therefore,

Number of days in which 5 men can finish a house repair job = Number of days in which 1 man can finish a house repair job × 5

=\frac{10}{3}(5)=\frac{50}{3}=16.6 ≈ 17 days

Which of the following is a solution to the equation x - 5/7 = -3/7
podryga [215]

Solve the equation:

          5              3
x  –  ——  =  –  ——
          7              7


           5
Add  ——  to both sides, so you get  x  isolated at the left-hand side:
           7

          5          5               3          5
x  –  ——  +  ——  =  –  ——  +  ——
          7           7              7           7

              3          5
x  =  –  ——  +  ——
              7           7


Now, add those fractions at the right-hand side of the equation:

          – 3 + 5
x  =  —————
               7

          2
x  =  ——     <———    this is the answer (first option:  2/7).
          7


I hope this helps. =)

A área de um retângulo é igual a 44, sabendo que as suas medidas são iguais a 4 e (3x+2), calcule a medida do lado maior deste r
jekas [21]

Responda:

11

Explicação passo a passo:

Área do retângulo = comprimento * largura

Dado

Comprimento = 4

Largura = 3x + 2

Área = 44

Substitua na fórmula e obtenha x

44 = 4 (3x + 2)

44 = 12x + 8

12x = 44-8

12x = 36

x = 36/12

x = 3

Obtenha os lados mais longos

Lado mais longo = 3x + 2

Substitua x = 3

Lado mais comprido = 3 (3) + 2

Lado mais comprido = 11

Portanto, a medida do lado mais longo deste retângulo é 11

Gabe drops a hammer from an apartment that is 30 meters above the ground. The height of the hammer in meters, h, after t seconds
anyanavicka [17]

Simplifying
h(t) = -1t2 + -2t + 30

Multiply h * t
ht = -1t2 + -2t + 30

Reorder the terms:
ht = 30 + -2t + -1t2

Solving
ht = 30 + -2t + -1t2

Solving for variable 'h'.

Move all terms containing h to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by 't'.
h = 30t-1 + -2 + -1t

Simplifying
h = 30t-1 + -2 + -1t

Reorder the terms:
h = -2 + 30t-1 + -1t
