Three men can build a wall in 8 days. How long will it take them if they have the help of 2 boys? Assume that each boy works half as fast as each man.

(with explanation pls)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

2 boys that each work half as fast as the men is equivalent to having one extra man. So instead of 3 men we have 4. 4/3 the manpower means 3/4 the time. 3/4 of 8 is 6.

Answer 2

Answer:

6 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 men can build 1/8 of a wall in 1 day.

So 1 man can build 1/24 wall in 1 day.

So 1 boy can build  1/48 in 1 day and 2 boys can build 1/24 wall in 1 day.

So we have the equivalent of  4 men working and they can build 4 * 1/24

= 1/6 of a wall per day

So the answer is 6 days.

A rectangle has a perimeter of 44 inches and an area of 72 square inches. What are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle?

A) 2 inches and 36 inches
B) 4 inches and 18 inches
C) 8 inches and 9 inches
D) 11 inches and 11 inches

IT IS NOT D, I TRIED IT AND IT DOESNT WORK!

Answers

A rectangle has a perimeter of 44 inches and an area of 72 square inches.Perimeter = 44 inches, area = 72 square inches.Let the length and breadth be l and b respectively.We know, perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + b)Therefore,2(l + b) = 44

or, l + b = 22

or, b = 22 - l ...(i)

We know, area of a rectangle = lbTherefore,lb = 72Putting (i) in b, we getl(22 - l) = 72

or, 22l - l^2 -72 = 0

or, l^2 - 22l + 72 = 0

or, l^2 - 4l - 18l + 72 = 0

or, l(l - 4) - 18(l - 4) = 0

or, (l - 4)(l - 18) = 0

or, l = 4 or l = 18

Therefore, if the length is 4 inches, then the breadth is (22-4) inches, i.e., 18 inches.And if the length is 18 inches, then the breadth is (22-18) inches, i.e., 4 inches.

Answer:

B) 4 inches and 18 inches.

Applying the inscribed angle theorem, the missing measures are:

1. m∠EDA = 29°

2. m∠BDC = 21°

3. m∠BDC = 21°

4. measure of arc AB = 80°

5. m∠AEB = 40°

6. m∠AEB = 29°

7. m∠BAC = 21°

8. measure of arc ED = 90°

9. m∠ECD = 45°

10. m∠ACB = 40°

11. m∠EBD = 45°

12. m∠ADB = 40°

13. m∠CAD = 45°

14. m∠EAB = 111°

15. m∠EBC = 90°

What is the Inscribed Angle Theorem?

The inscribed angle theorem states that, if ∠a is an inscribed angle, that intercepts arc AB, therefore: m∠a = ½(measure of arc AB).

The diagram showing circle P is attached below. We are given the following:

measure of arc EA = 58°

measure of arc BC = 42°

measure of arc CD = 90°

Thus:

1. m∠EDA = ½(measure of arc EA)

m∠EDA = ½(58)

m∠EDA = 29°

2. m∠BDC = ½(measure of arc EA)

m∠BDC = ½(42)

m∠BDC = 21°

3. m∠BEC = ½(measure of arc BC)

m∠BDC = ½(42)

m∠BDC = 21°

4. measure of arc AB = 180 - 58 - 42

measure of arc AB = 80°

5. m∠AEB = ½(measure of arc AB)

m∠AEB = ½(80)

m∠AEB = 40°

6. m∠ECA = ½(measure of arc EA)

m∠AEB = ½(58)

m∠AEB = 29°

7. m∠BAC = ½(measure of arc BC)

m∠BAC = ½(42)

m∠BAC = 21°

8. measure of arc ED = 180 - 90

measure of arc ED = 90°

9. m∠ECD = ½(measure of arc ED)

m∠ECD = ½(90)

m∠ECD = 45°

10. m∠ACB = ½(measure of arc AB)

m∠ACB = ½(80)

m∠ACB = 40°

11. m∠EBD = ½(measure of arc ED)

m∠EBD = ½(90)

m∠EBD = 45°

12. m∠ADB = ½(measure of arc AB)

m∠ADB = ½(80)

m∠ADB = 40°

13. m∠CAD = ½(measure of arc CD)

m∠CAD = ½(90)

m∠CAD = 45°

14. m∠EAB =  ½(180 + 42)

m∠EAB = ½(222)

m∠EAB = 111°

15. m∠EBC = ½(measure of arc EDC)

m∠EBC = ½(180)

m∠EBC = 90°

The answer is 6.33 units.

Answer:

  6.32 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The line shown can be considered to be the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has side lengths of 2 and 6. These values can be found by counting the vertical and horizontal numbers of grid squares between the two end points.

The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the length of the hypotenuse. It tells you the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the sides:

  AB² = 2² +6²

  AB² = 4 + 36 = 40

Taking the square root, you find ...

  AB = √40 ≈ 6.32456

__

We want to round this value to the nearest hundredth, so we look at the thousandths digit to see whether to round up. That digit is 4, so we simply delete all the digits to the right of the hundredths place.

Line AB is 6.32 units long.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

5 2/3 - 2 1/2 = 3 2/3 - 1/2 = 3 4/6 - 3/6 = 3 1/6

The answer is A. Three and one sixth.
Explanation:
5 2/3 - 2 1/2
First, we have to convert both mixed numbers into improper fractions.
5 2/3= 17/3
2 1/2= 5/2
Then we find the common denominator, which is in this 6.
So we would do 17/3= x/6= 34/6. X=34
5/2= x/6= 15/6. X= 15.
Then we subtract 15/6 - 34/6= 19/6
Then we convert to a mixed number and get 3 1/6.

What is the range of the function y= √x+5

Answers

Answer: {f(x)∈R∣f(x)≥0}

Step-by-step explanation: The square root function never produces a negative result. Therefore, for the function f(x)=√x+5 , the domain is {x∈R∣x≥−5} and the range is {f(x)∈R∣f(x)≥0} .

Answer:

Y>0

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the range of this function, we must first evaluate the domain. The square root function is a nice, neat function as long as the radicand isn’t negative. In this function, the radicand becomes negative after x gets smaller than -5, so the domain of this function is [-5, infinity).

Now that we know the domain, we can calculate the range. Beginning with the left boundary, we can substitute -5 into the function to see what y equals at this x-value. At -5, y equals 0, so the minimum value for the range is 0; with the right boundary, substituting infinity yields infinity, so the range is any number greater than 0.

calculate the state income tax owed on a $50,000 per year salary (answer is not 2500)

Answers

The total tax paid is $2,300 on the yearly salary of $50,000

What tax rate applies to the first $10,000 of salary?

The first $10,000 of the salary would be charged to tax at 3% whereas the next threshold beyond $10,000 up until $50,000, in other words, the difference between the first $10,000 and $50,000, which is $40,000 is taxed at 5%.

The tax on the first $10,000 is computed as shown below:

tax on the first $10,000=$10000*3%

tax on the first $10,000=$300

The tax on the remaining $40,000 is 5% of the amount

The tax on the remaining $40,000=5%*$40,000

The tax on the remaining $40,000=$2,000

In other words, the total tax paid on the $50,000 annual salary is the sum of $300 and the $2000

total tax paid=$300+$2,000

total tax paid=$2,300
