Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

Less Men, means more Days {Indirect Proportion}

Let the number of days be x then,

27 : 36 :: 18 : x

[Please pay attention, we have written 27 : 36 rather than 36 : 27, in indirect proportion, if you get it then chain rule is clear to you :)]

=>27x = 36 * 18

=> x = 24

So 24 days will be required to get work done by 27 men..

Answer:

36 men can complete work in 18 days

so, one man can complete work in 18×36 days

Therefore, 27 can complete work in 18×36/27 = 24 days

What is (14x^2– 27x+9) / (7x-3)? A. 7x-3 B. 2x-3 C. -211x+9 D. 2x-33

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

B. 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\rm \frac{ {14x}^{2} - 27x + 9}{7x - 3}$

$\rm = \frac{ \cancel{(7x - 3)}(2x - 3)}{ \cancel{7x - 3}}$

$\boxed{ \rm \bold{= 2x - 3}}$

What is the the y-intercept and x-intercept of the line. 4x - 4y= 36

algol13

Answer:

x-intercept: (9,0)

y-intercept: (0,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept and y-intercept is the point at which a line intersects the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. All points on the x-axis have a y-value of 0, while all points on the y-axis have an x-value of 0. Thus, to find the x and y intercepts, substitute 0 for one of the variables in the equation, then solve for the other.

1) To find the x-intercept, substitute 0 for y. Then, isolate x.

$4x-4(0)=36\\4x-0=36\\4x = 36\\x = 9$
