For each landscaping job that takes more than 4 hours, a certain contractor charges a total of r dollars for the first 4 hours plus 0.2r dollars for each additional hour or fraction of an hour, where r > 100. Did a particular landscaping job take more than 10 hours?
(1) The contractor charged a total of $288 for the job.
(2) The contractor charged a total of 2.4r dollars for the job.
Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient.
Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient.
BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient.
EACH statement ALONE is sufficient.
Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.
题目分析:
设绿化工作花费的时间为x小时。
(1) 所以有r+0.2r*(x-4)=288,即3.2r+0.2rx=288,由于不能确定r的值,因此x的值也不能确定,例如,r=120时,x=11,超过了10小时。又如r=160时,x=8,不足10小时,所以条件1不满足要求。
(2) 承包商费用为2.4r,有r+0.2r*(x-4)=2.4r,解得x=11,超过了10小时,题目得解。
因此,本题答案为(B),仅条件2可以解题,条件1不行。
#1 粗心了,当r=100时是可以确定>10小时的,但是r越贵的时候,hr就越少,所以还是不能确定
老师你算错了吧?在r>100,r,x>0的情况下,是不可能为288的,该式子至少为320,请不要误导大家。正确公式为0.2r+0.2rx=288,r>100,即20(x+1)<288,x<14.4,不能判断大小。
老师的答案有点问题。工作未必是整数小时,题中给出是超过4不到整数小时(or fraction of an hour)也是收费0.2r。因此超过4小时的收费应该是【x-4】的取整运算,大于等于(x-4)的最小整数。带入(2)得出【t-4】=7。所以t>10。因为t=10,该式=6,t=10.1,该式=7.
r+0.2r*(x-4)=288如何得出3.2r+0.2rx=288的?
工作10小时,收入公式=2.2r
(2)一定sufficient。
题目中说r>100, r其实可以无限大,比如r为1000时(1)就不符合了。
