Answer: The word "function" is used to describe that the number of days is dependent on the number of workers.

Number of days = f(number of workers).

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the more the number of workers will be involved in the harvesting of onion, the lesser days it will take to complete.

Thus, the number of workers becomes the independent variable, which is the input, and the number of days becomes the dependent variable, which is the output.

Note: I have copied this off from a good lad that goes by "fahimmohammad47", but this answer is from a different source. I did change some stuff to make it have more sense.

VladimirAG [237]
Start with 90/240, then reduce the fraction
you can reduce by dividing each by 10 to get 9/24
reduce more from there, seeing that each number can be divided by 3
9/3  = 3
24/3 = 8
answer 3/8

What is the justification for each step in the solution of the equation?
podryga [215]

Here are the following justifications:

Given: -2 (x-1) +12=4x-6


Distribute property = -2x+2+12=4x-6


Combine like terms= -2x+14=4x-6

 

Transpose = -2x = 4x – 20

 

Addition or Subtraction Property of Equality = -6x = -20

 

Division property of equality = x = 20/6

 

Simplify = x = 10/3

A group of students estimated the length of one minute without reference to a watch or​ clock, and the times​ (seconds) are list
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a group of students estimated the length of one minute without reference to a watch or​ clock, and the times​ (seconds) are listed below.

Data set is as ollows:

70 79 38 63 44 23 62 61 67 50 61 70 94 87 65

Mean = 62.27Variance =333.35std dev = 18.258std error = 4.714

H0: mu = 60 sec

Ha: mu not equals 60 sec

Mean diff = 2.27

Mean = 62.27Variance =333.35std dev = 18.258std error = 4.714

Test statistic = 2.27/SE =0.4815

p value =0.6376

Since p>0.05, we accept null hypothesis

i.e. there is statistical evidence to say that students are reasonably good at estimating one​ minute
