Step-by-step explanation:
The number of people to paint the bridge is inversely proportional to the number of hours it takes.
(If there are more people, it will take less time etc.)
9 people can paint the bridge in 5 hours.
=> 2 people can paint the bridge in 5 * (9/2) = 22.5 hours.
Answer:
The student is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that 5x² = 20:
It is true that the value of x = 2 because 2² = 4, and when you multiply 4 with 5, you'll get a product of 20:
5x² = 20
5(2)² = 20
5(4) = 20
20 = 20
Therefore, the student is correct that x = 2.

So the answer is 1.0054 * 10 ^7
The person doing this started at the 1 and moved right until he/she hit the decimal. Wrong direction.
