Answer:

24 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12 workers take 10 hours to build a wall, assuming they build at the same rate, it would take one worker 120 hours to build a wall.

By this logic, it would take 120/5 or 24 hours for 5 workers to build a wall

Neveah has created the function of f(x) = 2x+4/3 to represent the growth of her hair, where x represents the number of months si

Andre45 [30]

F(x)=2x+4/3

Replace f(x) by y:
y=2x+4/3

Solving for x:
y-4/3=2x+4/3-4/3

Subtracting the two terms on the left side of the equation:
(3y-4)/3=2x

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
[(3y-4)/3]/2=2x/2
[(3y-4)/3]*(1/2)=x
[(3y-4)*1]/[(3)*(2)]=x
(3y-4)/6=x
x=(3y-4)/6

Replace "x" by "f^(-1) (x)" (inverse function) and "y" by "x":
f^(-1) (x) = (3x-4)/6 Inverse function

Then, for x=6
f^(-1) (6) = [ 3(6)-4]/6
f^(-1) (6) = (18-4)/6
f^(-1) (6)= 14/6
f^(-1) (6) = 7/3

Her hair will have grown 6 after 7/3 = 2.33 months

Plzzzzz help will give brain and points!!! Explain why a quadratic equation with a positive discriminant has two real solutions,

NISA [10]

Answer:

The given equation is -2x^2 = -8x + 8

This can be rewritten as 2x^2 - 8x + 8 = 0

Here the value of a =2, b = -8 and c = 8

Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac

Now plug in the above values in the discriminant, we get

= (-8)^2 - 4*2*8

= 64 - 64
