It takes 42 minutes for 6 people to paint 7 walls

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

It takes 54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls

To find: Minutes required for 6 people to paint 7 walls

If M_1 men can do W_1 work in D_1 days working H_1 hours per day and M_2 men can do W_2 work in D_2 days working H_2 hours per day, then

\frac{M_1D_1H_1}{W_1} = \frac{M_2D_2H_2}{W_2}

M = Number of men

D = Number of days

H = Number of hours per day

W = Amount of work

Here in this sum,

<em><u>54 minutes for 4 people to paint 6 walls</u></em>

H_1 = 54 minutes ; M_1 = 4 people ; W_1 = 6 walls

<em><u>Minutes required for 6 people to paint 7 walls</u></em>

H_2 = ? ; M_2 = 6 people ; W_2 = 7 walls

<em><u>Substituting the values in formula, we get</u></em>

\frac{54 \times 4}{6} = \frac{H_2 \times 6}{7}\\\\9 \times 4 = \frac{H_2 \times 6}{7}\\\\H_2 = \frac{36 \times 7}{6}\\\\H_2 = 42

Thus it takes 42 minutes for 6 people to paint 7 walls

Please help and explain.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula, (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).  In this case, there is a negative slope.  

Start from point, (1, 9) and go to point (4, 8).  

Use the formula:

(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Y2 = 8

Y1 = 4

X2 = 9

X1 = 1

(8 - 9)/(4 - 1) = -1/3

Therefore, the slope is -1/3

What are the solutions to the system of equations? y=2x^2−6x+3 y=2x+3
adoni [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x²-6x+3

y=2x+3

2x²-6x+3=2x+3

2x²-6x+3-2x-3=0

2x²-8x=0

2x(x-4)=0

x=0,4

y=0+3=3

and y=2(4)+3=11

so solutions are (0,3) and (4,11)
