how long will it take 14 machines to complete the task, given that 8 machines can complete the same task in 7 days?

Mathematics

4 0

Answer:

4 days

Step-by-step explanation:

If 8 machines can complete a task in 7 days, how long will 14 machines take?

So, it is obvious that if the number of machines increases, the number of days taken to complete the task decreases; thus proving that this is an indirect / inverse proportion.

Let's take <em>x</em> as the number of days we need to find out.

 8 machines : 7 days

14 machines : <em>x</em> days

14 × <em>x </em>= 8 × 7

14<em>x </em>= 56

x = \frac{56}{14}

x = 4

A restaurant bill is $84.96. Estimate a 20% tip. Estimate a 15% tip.
Lisa [10]
If you have to estimate I will put $85 and then to find 20 % you just have to kniw that 10% is equal to 8.5 you just move a decimal then you just add 8.5 plus 8.5 = 17 so 20% of 85 is equal to $17 and to find 15% you already know how much is 10%=8.5 so you just need to find 5% that is equal to 4.25 and then you just add 4.25 to 8.5 and that's equal to 12.75

20%= 17
15%=12.5

A horse ran 800 m and 40 seconds 1200 meters in 60 seconds and 480 m in 24 seconds is a proportional relationship if so what is
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance travelled/time

A horse ran 800 m in 40 seconds. This means that the speed is

800/40 = 20 m/s

The horse ran 1200 m in 60 seconds. This means that the speed is

1200/60 = 20 m/s

The horse ran 1200 m in 60 seconds. This means that the speed is

480/24 = 20 m/s

Since the horse's rate or speed is the same at each scenario, it means that the relationship between the distance covered by the horse and the time taken is proportional.

Let k represent the constant of proportionality. The constant of proportionality is 20. It represents speed of the horse.

Let d represent the distance in meters.

Let t represent the time in seconds.

Therefore

d = 20t
