It takes 3,600 person hours to complete a project. how many weeks will it take a team of 15 people to complete the job if each person works 8 hours 5 days a week?

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4

explanation:

previous steps have made pa≅ pb ≅ st ≅ su. setting the compass width to ab allows you to make tu the same length. then δstu ≅ δpab by the sss congruence postulate, and ∠p ≅ ∠s by the reason cpctc.

i agree because i see the other persons thinking is clear

school a:

minimum value is 2

maximum value is 22

the lower quartile is 2.5

the median is 10

the upper quartile is 15.5

school b:

minimum value is 9

maximum value is 20

the lower quartile is 12

the median is 16

the upper quartile is 18

box plot for school a isn't symmetrical. the data tails on the right

box plot for school b isn't symmetrical. the data tails on the left

hope i
