We will use proportions to solve our given problem.
Therefore, it will take 36 minutes for 20 members to paint 9000 square foot wall.
Answer:
In February, 423 daytime minutes is used
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the base plan charges be x
And cost per daytime minute be y
In December,
x + 510y = 92.25------------------(1)
In January,
x + 397y = 77.56---------------------(2)
Subtracting eq(2) from eq(1)
x + 510y = 92.25
x + 397y = 77.56
-------------------------------
0 + 113y = 14.69
-------------------------------
y = \frac{14.69}{113}
y = 0.13----------------------------------(3)
Substituting (3) in (1)
x + 510(0.13) = 92.25
x + 66.3 = 92.25
x = 92.25 - 66.3
x = 25.95
So In February
base plan + (daytime minute)(cost per daytime minute) = 80.9
25.95 + (daytime minute)(0.13) = 80.9
(daytime minute)(0.13) = 80.9 - 25.95
(daytime minute)(0.13) = 54.95
(daytime minute) =
daytime minutes = 422.69
daytime minute
