Answer:

16 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let t be time, n the number of computers and w the number of workers, then

t = \frac{kn}{w} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition n = 30, w = 6 and t = 10 , then

10 = \frac{30k}{6} ( multiply both sides by 6 )

60 = 30k ( divide both sides by 30 )

2 = k

t = \frac{2n}{w} ← equation of variation

When w = 5 and n = 40 , then

t = \frac{2(40)}{5} = \frac{80}{5} = 16 hours

175... I can try my best. )) If your one of the many that don’t like math, just know your not the only person in the world with this feeling. Surprisingly, there are ways and methods that maybe with change your negative thoughts into positive thoughts about math. Try striving to be the best in the class, work the hardest. Your work will pay off and in the end, you’ll feel proud of what you’ve accomplished. If you’ve got some bad thoughts about an up coming test or quiz, study the entire week for that quiz/test.Make sure you know the material , so you can walk into math class feeling confident. Lastly, walk into math everyday with an open mind. Don’t get too stressed, and say to yourself “They’ve got to teach it to me first”. Also, always ask questions. If you don’t know what’s going on, always ask a question. There might be someone else wondering the same question. uhmmm this should get you going. if you need more help lmk

Convert the following systems of equations to an augmented matrix and use Gauss-Jordan reduction to convert to an equilivalent m
Rasek [7]

Answer:

System of equations:

x_1+2x_2+2x_3=6\\2x_1+x_2+x_3=6\\x_1+x_2+3x_3=6

Augmented matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&2&2&6\\2&1&1&6\\1&1&3&6\end{array}\right]

Reduced Row Echelon matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&2&2&6\\0&1&1&2\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the system into an augmented matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&2&2&6\\2&1&1&6\\1&1&3&6\end{array}\right]

For notation, R_n is the new nth row and r_n the unchanged one.

1. Operations:

R_2=-2r_1+r_2\\R_3=-r_1+r_3

Resulting matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&2&2&6\\0&-3&-3&-6\\0&-1&1&0\end{array}\right]

2. Operations:

R_2=-\frac{1}{3}r_2

Resulting matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&2&2&6\\0&1&1&2\\0&-1&1&0\end{array}\right]

3. Operations:

R_3=r_2+r_3

Resulting matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&2&2&6\\0&1&1&2\\0&0&2&2\end{array}\right]

4. Operations:

R_3=\frac{1}{2}r_3

Resulting matrix:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&2&2&6\\0&1&1&2\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

A survey revealed that 60% of people are entertained by reading books, 50% are entertained by watching TV, and 20% are entertain
Rainbow [258]

Question seem incorrect because 60%,50% and 20% sum up to more than a 100% therefore we've made a little correction

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = number of favorable outcomes/number of outcomes

Given that 30% are entertained by reading books

50% are entertained by watching TV

20% are entertained by reading books and watching TV

The probability that a person will be entertained by books or TV =

30/100+50/100= 3/10+5/10

=8/10

=0.8
