Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the equation. Read it carefully.
1/2 * 1/7 T = 1/3 * 1/5 * 90 Reduce
(1/14) * T = 1/15 * 90
1/15 * 90 = 6
(1/14)*T = 6 Multiply both sides by 14
T = 14 * 6
T = 84
Answer:
The correct answer is 10 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
To fill a trench, 5 men work for 6 hours a day for eight days.
Total work hours required is given by 5 × 6 × 8 = 240 hours.
The same work is supposed to be done by 3 men working 8 hours a day.
Let these three men need to work for x days.
Therefore total work hour these group of three men gave = 3 × 8 × x = 24x hours
Therefore the work hour of both the group of 5 men and 3 men should be equal.
⇒ 24x = 240
⇒ x = 10
Therefore the group of 3 men have to work for 10 days to fill the trench.

Answer:
c(x) = ($12) / x
Step-by-step explanation:
The general formula for inverse proportion is y = k/x.
In this specific problem, y represents the cost per person, k the dailyl cost ($12), and x the number of perople riding.
Then
c(x) = cost per person as a function of the number of people riding
= ($12) / x
Note that if only one person rides, that person pays $12/1, or $12; if two people, $12/2, or $6 per person, and so on.
