The time required to complete a job varies inversely as the number of people working. It took 4 hours for 7 electricians to wire a building. How long would it have taken 3 electricians?

A. 1 hour 43 minutes
B. 5 hours 15 minutes
C. 7 hours 30 minutes
D. 9 hours and 20 minutes

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

9 hours and 20 minutes: b

Step-by-step explanation:

4*60=240

7x240=1680

1680/3=560

560= 9 h 20 m

Answer 2

The time required when 3 electricians are working is 9 hours and 20 minutes.

What is an expression?

An expression contains one or more terms with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

We always combine the like terms in an expression when we simplify.

We also keep all the like terms on one side of the expression if we are dealing with two sides of an expression.

Example:

1 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.com

3 + 4 is an expression.

2 x 4 + 6 x 7 – 9 is an expression.

33 + 77 – 88 is an expression.

We have,

The time required to complete the job varies inversely with the number of people working.

This means that if the number of people working decreases, the time required to complete the job will increase.

We can use the formula for inverse variation to solve the problem:

t = k/n

where t is the time required to complete the job, n is the number of people working, and k is a constant of proportionality.

We can find k by plugging in the given values:

4 = k/7

k = 28

Now we can use the formula to find the time required when 3 electricians are working:

t = 28/3

t ≈ 9.33 hours

Converting this to hours and minutes, we get:

t ≈ 9 hours and 20 minutes

Thus,

The time required when 3 electricians are working is 9 hours and 20 minutes.

Complete the table below to find solutions to the linear equation y=5x−5.

Use parentheses when entering ordered pairs and do not enter spaces between numbers

Answers

(0,-5)(1,0)(2,5)(3,10)(4,15)

The solution to the equation y = 5x - 5 is given by the ordered pairs

( 0 , -5 ) , ( 1 , 0 ) , ( 2 , 5 ) , ( 3 , 10 ) , ( 4 , 15 )

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

y = 5x - 5   be equation (1)

On simplifying the equation , we get

Substitute the value of x = 0 in the equation , we get

y = 5 ( 0 ) - 5

y = 0 - 5

y = -5

So , the ordered pair is ( 0 , -5 )

Substitute the value of x = 1 in the equation , we get

y = 5 ( 1 ) - 5

y = 5 - 5

y = 0

So , the ordered pair is ( 1 , 0 )

Substitute the value of x = 2 in the equation , we get

y = 5 ( 2) - 5

y = 10 - 5

y = 5

So , the ordered pair is ( 2 , 5 )

Substitute the value of x = 3 in the equation , we get

y = 5 ( 3 ) - 5

y = 15 - 5

y = 10

So , the ordered pair is ( 3 , 10 )

Substitute the value of x = 4 in the equation , we get

y = 5 ( 4 ) - 5

y = 20 - 5

y = 15

So , the ordered pair is ( 4 , 15 )

Hence , the equations are solved

Tell whether each function is linear or non-linear. Function A Function B x 0 1 2 3 y 0 1 8 27 y = –x + 5

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the linear function  

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

where

m is the slopeb is the y-intercept

The graph of y = mx + b is a straight line. Thus, y = mx + b represents a linear function.

Analzing the function y = –x + 5

Given the linear function

y = –x + 5

comparing with the slope-intercept form of linear equation

The slope m = -1

The y-intercept b = 5

Also, the graph of a linear function is a straight line.

Thus,

The function  y = –x + 5 represents  a linear function.

Analzing the Table Function

x        0     1     2     3

y        0     1     8     27

In order to identify whether the given table represents the linear function or not, we need to make sure the given function has a constant change x and y.

If there is a constant change in x and y, then it would be a linear Function otherwise it would not represent a linear function.

There is a constant change in x values.

i.e.

1 - 0 = 1

2 - 1 = 1

3 - 2 = 1

But, there is NOT a constant change in y.

i.e.

1 - 0 = 0

8 - 1 = 7

27 - 8 = 19

It is clear that the table does not have a constant change in y-values.

Therefore, the table function does not represent the linear function

pls help i will give the brinlist:0

Step-by-step explanation:

let jon age be x

dad age is 2 of x i.e 2x

grandpa age is 7 + 3(x)

The sum of jon dad and grandpa age is 145 i.e

3x +. 7 + 3x = 145

6x = 145- 7

6x = 138

divide both sides by 6

x = 23

jon age is 23

What single percentage change is equivalent to a 18% increase followed by a 13% decrease?

Answers

Given:

18% increase followed by a 13% decrease.

To find:

The single percentage equivalent to a 18% increase followed by a 13% decrease.

Solution:

Let a number be 100.

If it is increased by 18% then the number becomes

[tex]Number=100+\dfrac{18}{100}\times 100[/tex]

            [tex]=100+18[/tex]

            [tex]=118[/tex]

Then, it is decreased by 13%.

[tex]Number=118-\dfrac{13}{100}\times 118[/tex]

             [tex]=118-15.34[/tex]

             [tex]=102.66[/tex]

New number is 102.66.

Now, the percentage change is

[tex]\%\text{ Change}=\dfrac{\text{New number - Initial number}}{\text{Initial number}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\%\text{ Change}=\dfrac{102.66-100}{100}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\%\text{ Change}=\dfrac{2.66}{100}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\%\text{ Change}=2.66\%[/tex]

Therefore, the Single percentage change is 2.66%.

well, you can multiply them, to simplify the equation, but to expand, try adding or multiplying 2 multiples of 8, in the middle the 4 can change by adding 2+2 or 3+1. For 3y, you can do 3*y.
