Lucinda is arranging 150 patio blocks to build a patio.Let p represent the number of patio blocks Lucinda arranged in one hour. Which equation describes the relationship between p and h, the total number of hours Lucinda needed to arrange all 150 blocks ?

Respuesta :

Answer:

150/p = h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question that

p =  number of patio blocks arranged by Lucinda per hour

h = total number of hours needed to arrange all blocks

Now,

Since p number of blocks take 1 hour of time for getting arranged

So, for one block the time required = [tex]\frac{1}{p}[/tex] hours

And for 150 blocks the time required will be = [tex]150\times \frac{1}{p}[/tex]

According to the question, the total time required is equal to h hours.

So, we will get the final equation as,

[tex]150\times \frac{1}{p} = h[/tex]  

or, 150/p = h
