It took 3 days to complete a work by 10 people.
What is Efficiency?
The efficiency is the output of the work which we divide by the work input and then express it in a percentage form.
Here, Efficiency of 1 person to complete a piece of work in 30 days is 1/30.
The number of days to complete the work = n days
Number of person to complete the work = p.
Now, according to question
Number of days to complete the work by 10 people = 30 / 10
= 3 days.
Thus, it took 3 days to complete a work by 10 people.

back into the box together with one extra red ball. Whenever a white ball is
drawn, it is placed back into the box together with two extra white balls. What
is the probability that the first three balls are drawn out of the box alternated
in colour?
Using it's concept, it is found that the probability that the first three balls are drawn out of the box alternated in colour is of 0.1541 = 15.41%.
What is a probability?A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
Considering the situation described, the ways that alternate colored balls can be taken, and their probabilities, are given as follows:

Answer:
x = 55°
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.
To solve for x, we have to subtract the given angles from 180°.
Solve for x180° = ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠x180° = 75° + 50° + x°180° - 75° - 50° = x°55° = x°The value of x is 55°.
Angle sum property of a triangle
Angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°.∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
∠A = ?∠B = 75°∠C = 50°We need to find the value of ∠A
According to the angle sum property of a triangle
⇢∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
⇢∠A + 75° + 50° = 180°
⇢∠A + 125° = 180°
⇢∠A = 180° - 125°
⇢∠A = 55°

The graph of the function:
[tex]f(x) = \sqrt{x + 2} - 3[/tex]
Is the last graph (bottom graph of the second image).
Which graph represents the given function?
Here we have the function:
[tex]f(x) = \sqrt{x + 2} - 3[/tex]
Remember that the argument of a square root must be zero or larger, then the minimum of the domain is the value of x such that:
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
Then the function starts at:
[tex]f(-2) = \sqrt{-2 + 2} - 3 = -3[/tex]
Then the graph should start at (-3, 2).
We can also identify another point by evaluating in x = 2.
[tex]f(2) = \sqrt{2 + 2} - 3 =2 - 3 = -1[/tex]

From the top of a cliff 90 m high, the angle of depression of a boat on the sea is 26.2°. Calculate how far the boat is
a from the foot of the cliff,
b from the top of the cliff.
Answer:
a) 182.90 m
b) 203.85 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The relations between trig functions and measures in a right triangle are summarized in the mnemonic SOH CAH TOA. Here, we are given an angle and the side opposite, and we are asked to find the adjacent side and the hypotenuse.
__
a)The foot of the cliff to the boat is the adjacent side of the angle in our model. So, we can use the relation ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
Solving for the adjacent side, we have ...
BF = (90 m)/tan(26.2°) ≈ 182.90 m
The boat is about 182.90 meters from the foot of the cliff.
__
b)The top of the cliff to the boat is the hypotenuse of the triangle we're using to model the situation. This means the applicable relation is ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
BC = (90 m)/sin(26.2°) ≈ 203.85 m
The boat is about 203.85 meters from the top of the cliff.
What is the length of the hypotenuse? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
c = 37 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagorean theorem:To find 'c' use Pythagorean theorem.
[tex]\sf \boxed{\bf hypotenuse^2 = base^2 + altitude^2}[/tex]
c² = 35² + 12²

A bakery has a sale on cookies. If a customer buys a dozen cookies for $15, each additional single cookie is $0.75. What is an equation that shows how the total cost depends on the number of single cookies purchased? (Assume that the order starts with a dozen cookies.) How much would a dozen cookies plus six single cookies cost?
Answer:
T = 15 + 0.75c
T = $19.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that T stands for total cost and c stands for number of single cookies purchased, the equation would be:
T = 15 + 0.75c
Therefore, a dozen cookies plus six single cookies would cost:
T = 15 + 0.75(6)
T = 15 + 4.5
T = $19.5

By looking at the graph of the piecewise function, we can see that:
G(-0.001) = -9G(0) = -1G(0.0001) = -1G(9) is not defined.How to evaluate the piecewise function?
On the graph, we have a piecewise function, which we want to evaluate in some different values.
First we have x = -0.0001
This value belongs to the interval (-5, 0), and by looking at the graph, you can see that the function on that interval is equal to -9, then:
G(-0.0001) = -9
x = 0
x = 0 belongs to the interval [0, 9). On that interval the function values -1. (x = 0 belongs to that interval because we have a closed dot). Then we conclude
G(0) = -1
x = 0.0001
This value also belongs to the interval [0, 9)
Then G(0.0001) = -1
Finally, x = 9.
If you look at the domain of the function, you can see that there is an open dot at x = 9.
This means that x = 9 does not belong to that domain, so:
G(9) is not defined.

The description of the correlation in terms of strength (weak or strong) and direction positive or negative) is as explained below.
How to Interpret Correlation Problems?
A correlation coefficient, is expressed as r and it indicates a measure of the direction and strength of a relationship between two variables.
Now, in terms of strength, Correlation strength ranges from -1 to +1. Thus, The closer the correlation is to 0, the weaker it is while the closer it is to ±1, the stronger it is.
Now, in terms of direction;
A correlation of +1 indicates a perfect positive correlation which tells us that both variables move in the same direction together. A correlation of –1 indicates a perfect negative correlation, which tells us that as one variable goes up, the other goes down.A zero correlation suggests that the correlation statistic does not indicate a relationship between the two variables.Read more about Correlation at; https://brainly.com/question/4219149

Now it has turned rectangle
Sides

Area
(x+12)(x-7)Answer:
A) (x + 8)² cm² = (x² + 16x + 64) cm²
B) (x + 12)(x + 7) cm² = (x² + 19x + 84) cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula
Area of a square = s² (where s is the side length)
Given side length of square field:
x cm⇒ Area of field = x² cm²
Part A
If the side length of the square field is increased by 8 cm then:
⇒ new side length = (x + 8) cm
Substitute the new side length into the formula for the area of a square:
⇒ Area of field = (x + 8)² cm²
Expand and simplify:
⇒ Area = (x + 8)²
⇒ Area = (x + 8)(x + 8)
⇒ Area = x(x + 8) + 8(x + 8)
⇒ Area = x² + 8x + 8x + 64
⇒ Area = (x² + 16x + 64) cm²
Part B
If the side length of the square field is increased by 12 cm and the width is decreased by 7 cm then:
⇒ new side length a = (x + 12) cm
⇒ new side length b = (x - 7) cm
Substitute the side lengths into the formula for area of a square:
⇒ Area of a square = s × s
⇒ Area of a square = a × b
⇒ Area of the field = (x + 12)(x + 7) cm²
Expand and simplify:
⇒ Area = (x + 12)(x + 7)
⇒ Area = x(x + 7) + 12(x + 7)
⇒ Area = x² + 7x + 12x + 84
⇒ Area = (x² + 19x + 84) cm²
Here are three studies:
a: june asks eight of her friends if they plan on buying a school lunch that day.
b: sam selects a random sample of coins from his coin bank to see how many of them are older than 1982.
c: peyton randomly selects six eggs from a carton. she randomly assigns three of them to be boiled for 10 minutes and the other three are boiled for 15 minutes. after they have cooled she compares how easy they are to peel.
for which of these studies can we draw conclusions of cause and effect?
a
b
c
none of them

Answer:
A) 144 feet
[tex]\textsf{B)} \quad h(t)=16t(6-t)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
Given polynomial:
[tex]h(t)=96t-16t^2[/tex]
where:
h(t) is the height of the debris (in feet).t is the time (in seconds) after the explosion.To find the height of the debris 3 seconds after the explosion, substitute t = 3 into the polynomial and solve:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies h(3)& = 96(3)-16(3)^2\\ & = 288 - 16(9)\\ & =288-144\\ & =144 \sf \:\: ft\end{aligned}[/tex]
Part B
To factor the polynomial, rewrite 96 as 6 × 16:
[tex]\implies h(t)=6 \cdot 16t-16t^2[/tex]
Rewrite t² as t × t:
[tex]\implies h(t)=6 \cdot 16t-16t \cdot t[/tex]
Factor out the common term 16t:
[tex]\implies h(t)=16t(6-t)[/tex]
Check
Substitute t = 3 into the factored expression:
[tex]\begin{aligned}h(3) & = 16(3)(6-3)\\& = 16(3)(3)\\& = 48(3)\\& = 144\:\: \sf ft \end{aligned}[/tex]
As the height is 144 ft when t = 3 is substituted into the original polynomial and the factored polynomial, this confirms that the factorization is correct.
