If Reducing 2 men will bbe enough too finish the work in 10 days

For rate of work use the formualar

rate of work = quantity of work / duration

10 men can do the work at a rate of = 1 / 8

x men can do same work at a rate of = 1 / 10

x * ( 1 / 8 ) = 10 * ( 1 / 10 )

x = 1 * 8 = 8

therefore 8 men can do the work in 10 days

number of men reduced = 10 men - 8 men = 2 men

Hope it helped

Answer:

any score that lies between 88.8 and 97.2 is within one std. dev. of the mean

Step-by-step explanation:

One std. dev. above the mean would be 93 + 4.2, or 97.2. One std. dev. below the mean would be 93 - 4.2, or 88.8.

So: any score that lies between 88.8 and 97.2 is within one std. dev. of the mean.

Find the sum of the first 6 terms of 3 - 6 + 12 + …

Natalka [10]

Answer:

$S_6 = -63$

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence above is a geometric sequence.

The common ratio (r) = $\frac{-6}{3} = \frac{12}{-6} = -2$

The common ratio < 1, therefore, the formula for the sum of nth terms of the sequence would be: $S_n = \frac{a_1(1 - r^n)}{1 - r}$

a1 = 3

r = -2

n = 6

Plug in the values into the formula

$S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (-2^6)}{1 - (-2)}$

$S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (64)}{1 + 2}$

$S_6 = \frac{3(-63)}{3}$

$S_6 = -63$
