contract to start next. They will make £200 extra profit per day in the new contract. They are considering completing the existing contract asap but hiring more painters is difficult and only three more painters are available. Every 6 painters have to have 1 supervisor and each supervisor will cost £80 extra per day.
a) Analyse the extra costs/profitfor the contractor if they decide to complete the project by 15 painters.
In the next project: Two supervisors and twelve painters together will cost £1056 per day, whilst three supervisors and fourteen painters together will cost £1288 per day. Then:
b) Find, by the analytical solution of a set of simultaneous linear equations, the earnings for a supervisor and a painter.
c) Find, by the graphical method for the solution of a set of simultaneous linear equations, the earnings for a supervisor and a painter.
d) Use matrices to solve the same set of simultaneous equationsto find the earnings for a supervisor and a painter.
Thanks

These people stomp and shout and argue day after day. Then they tell the landlord they don't yell at their kids! Today the landlord said they told her that they weren't even home that day that I complained! They were and I heard them, there was 2 of them home and then later on more.. The landlord told me to stop complaining, she wouldn't listen to anymore of it and it is frustrating for her!! What about me? She said that they told her that they lived in their last place for 10 years! I can't stop crying, maybe cause I'm pregnant, but it is hard to not be believed when you are being honest. And it is hard to be expected to live with other people screaming in your house for hours upon end on an almost daily basis.

I guess I have to start calling the police for domestic disturbance.. and now I am crying more at that thought, because I don't want to be that person that is the b-i-t-c-h-y person downstairs... what can I do?

Do you think it's okay for bisexual's to have a b/f and a g/f at the same time if they know about each other? I've had several b/f's who havn't cared at all and a few who have. I've had one g/f who didn't like it and a few who didn't mind at all. SO what's the right answer???

I cant be responsible for the mans actions. So all you ppl trying to make me feel guilty for sleeping with this married man.. I didnt know he was married. and how can you be sure the wife is not cheating. Everyone please take responsibility for your own actions.
But its often like this, that the wives blame the woman.. Not the man.. Do you think the man is a crature that has no own will.. and that he is lured into these situations? god damn.. grow up..

I've had a heart murmur my whole life, no big deal. But, the last few years my chest where my heart is, is tender and it causes me great discomfort if pressed or touched firmly in any way. When I'm also really stressed out, or when I have a panic/anxiety attack, I get the same feeling, just greatly multiplyed. My doctor said I had cosochondritis, and that it would go away in a few weeks at my last check up 4 months ago, but this has been going on for a long time, whats wrong with me?

PLEASE DON'T REPLY AND JUST SAY "SEE A DOCTOR" AND THAT'S IT, IF YOU HAVE REAL ADVICE FROM EXPERIENCE OR KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT MY PROBLEM, THEN ANSWER, BUT IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE SAYING PLEASE DON'T REPLY, THANKS.
