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

Write the equation in slope-intercept form through the point (-4, -7) and is perpendicular to the line y = -(7/4)x + 4 and graph
Scilla [17]

You have to write the equation for a line that crosses the point (-4, -7) and is perpendicular to the line

y=-\frac{7}{4}x+4

When you have to determine a line that is perpendicular to a known line, you have to keep in mind that the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative inverse of the first one.

If for exampla you have two lines, the first one being:

y_1=mx+b

And the second one, that is perpedicular to the one above:

y_2=nx+c

The slope of the second one is the negative inverse of the first one:

n=-\frac{1}{m}

The slope of the given line y=-7/4+4 is m=-7/4

So the slope of the perpendicular line has to ve the inverse negative of -7/4

\begin{gathered} n=-(-\frac{4}{7}) \\ n=\frac{4}{7} \end{gathered}

Considering it has to pass through the point (-4,-7) and that we already determined its slope, you can unse the point slope formula to determine the equation of the perpendicular line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

replace with the coordinates of the point and the slope and calculate:

\begin{gathered} y-(-7)=\frac{4}{7}(x-(-4)) \\ y+7=\frac{4}{7}(x+4) \\ y+7=\frac{4}{7}x+\frac{16}{7} \end{gathered}

Subtract 7 to both sides of the equation to write it in slope-intercept form:

\begin{gathered} y+7-7=\frac{4}{7}x+\frac{16}{7}-7 \\ y=\frac{4}{7}x-\frac{33}{7} \end{gathered}

Now you can graph both lines

What value of x would make the figure below a parallelogram? please show your work!​
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sum of all angles of a parallelogram is equal to 360 degrees, <Z + <Y is half of the parallelogram, and therefore <Z + <Y = 180 degrees.

16x-4 + 7x = 180, combine like terms

23x - 4 = 180, add 4 on both sides (isolate variable)

23x = 184, divide 23 on both sides

x = 8

A factory produces 90 packages of mixed nuts in 1 min. A quality control manager selected 10 of these 90 packages at random and
valentina_108 [34]
Answer:

34

explanation:

First of all, put the numbers in order

30, 31, 31, 32, 33, 35, 35, 35, 36, 36

Then, find the middle number.
In this case, there is an even amount of numbers so, we have to pick the 2 middle numbers which is 33 and 35.

Now all you have to do is add these two numbers together then divide by 2 which will give you 34.

or, in simpler questions like this one, you can just say 34 as you know it is between 33 and 35.


In other questions, it might have and odd amount of numbers, for example:

3, 3, 5, 8, 10

so all you would do here is pick the middle number which would be 5. (it has 2 numbers on each side of it)
