If 8 people can pick the apples from trees in 6 days, how long will it take12 people?

1 answer:

4 0

4 days.
If it takes 6 days for 8 people to pick apples then it must take 48 days for 1 person to do it because 6•8=48.
So then it must take 12 people
48/12 days which is 4 to pick apples from trees.

scoray [572]

18 x 40 = 720 per week.....720 x 4 = 2880 per month earnings

net pay = 0.72(2880) = 2073.60 <=== cash inflow.

how much he spends per month is his cash outflow.

Explain how knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum for7+1

ss7ja [257]

1+7 and 7+1 are the same equations. The numbers are just switched around .
Example:
1+2=3
2+1+3

<span>They add up to the same answer no matter where they are placed, therefore knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum of 7+1 (again, because they are the same) </span>

A particular rocket taking off from the earth surface uses fuel at a constant rate of 12.5 gallons per minute the rocket initial

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

$y=12.5x+225$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of minutes

y ----> the amount of fuel in gallons

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the unit rate or slope

b is the y-intercept or initial value

we have that

The unit rate or slope is equal to

$m=12.5\ \frac{gal}{min}$

$b=225\ gal$ ----> initial value (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

substitute

$y=12.5x+225$

An icicle drips at a rate that can be represented by the function f(x) = −x2 + 11x − 18, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 10 and x is the number of

FrozenT [24]

Calculate f(x) for all numbers between 0 and 10:

f(0) = −0^2 + 11(0) − 18 = -18

f(1) = −1^2 + 11(1) − 18 = -8

f(2) = −2^2 + 11(2) − 18 = 0

f(3) = −3^2 + 11(3) − 18 = 6

f(4) = −4^2 + 11(4) − 18 = 10

f(5) = −5^2 + 11(5) − 18 = 12

f(6) = −6^2 + 11(6) − 18 = 12

f(7) = −7^2 + 11(7) − 18 = 10

f(8) = −8^2 + 11(8) − 18 = 6

f(9) = −9^2 + 11(9) − 18 = 0

f(10) = −10^2 + 11(10) − 18 = -8

When the value is negative it doesn't drip, so it starts and stops dripping when the values = 0

Which is f(2) and f(9), the values are 2 and 9.
