Amy completes a work in t day and with Bob. Amy takes n day for the same work. If Bobo can completes twice the same work inside of 16 day, which of the following gives the correct relation between t and n ?

A

`n lt (8t)/(8 +t)`

B

`n lt (8+t)/(8t)`

C

`n gt (t)/(8t +1)`

D

` n gt (t)/(8 + t)`

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the information given and derive the relationship between \( t \) and \( n \). ### Step 1: Determine the work done by Amy and Bob Let: - Work done by Amy in 1 day = \( A \) - Work done by Bob in 1 day = \( B \) From the problem, we know: - Amy completes the work in \( t \) days, so: \[ A = \frac{1}{t} \] - Amy takes \( n \) days to complete the same work with Bob, so: \[ A + B = \frac{1}{n} \] ### Step 2: Express Bob's work in terms of \( t \) and \( n \) Substituting \( A \) into the equation: \[ \frac{1}{t} + B = \frac{1}{n} \] Rearranging gives: \[ B = \frac{1}{n} - \frac{1}{t} \] ### Step 3: Determine Bob's work rate It is given that Bob can complete twice the work in less than 16 days. Therefore, the work done by Bob in 1 day can be expressed as: \[ B > \frac{2 \text{ works}}{16 \text{ days}} = \frac{1}{8} \] ### Step 4: Set up the inequality From the previous step, we have: \[ \frac{1}{n} - \frac{1}{t} > \frac{1}{8} \] ### Step 5: Solve the inequality for \( n \) Rearranging the inequality: \[ \frac{1}{n} > \frac{1}{8} + \frac{1}{t} \] Finding a common denominator (which is \( 8t \)): \[ \frac{1}{n} > \frac{t + 8}{8t} \] ### Step 6: Invert the inequality Taking the reciprocal (and remembering to flip the inequality): \[ n < \frac{8t}{t + 8} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the correct relation between \( t \) and \( n \) is: \[ n < \frac{8t}{t + 8} \]
