35 workers are employed to complete the construction in 16 days. Before the work starts, he is told to complete the task in 14 days. Assuming that all the workers work at the same rate, how many more workers does he need to employ in order to complete the project.

40 workers

Step-by-step explanation:

This job requires 35 workers and 16 days, so it requires

35 * 16 = 560 worker-days to complete

If you only have 14 days, then you need

560 worker-days/14 days = 40 workers

x ≥ 18 is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

let "a number" = x

(2/3)x + 17 ≥ 29

isolate the variable (x). do the opposite of pemdas (parenthesis, exponent (& root), multiplication, division, addition, subtraction).

first, subtract 17 from both sides.

(2/3)x + 17 (-17) ≥ 29 (-17)

(2/3)x ≥ 29 - 17

(2/3)x ≥ 12

next, multiply 3/2 to both sides to isolate the x

(3/2)(2/3)x ≥ 12(3/2)

x ≥ 12(3/2)

simplify. multiply, then divide

x ≥ (12 * 3)/2

x ≥ (36)/2

x ≥ 18

x ≥ 18 is your answer
