Okay sy shmoop er's Here we go Another word problem

00:05

for you Megan and landed just opened their own animation

00:08

studio and their first client wants a twenty four minute

00:11

episode ready in four weeks And animator can produce one

00:14

hundred seventy five frames a day and twenty five frames

00:18

equals one second of an episode Meghan and land and

00:23

pay their animators five hundred fifty dollars per five day

00:27

workweek and hire the minimum number of animators needed to

00:30

complete the project in four weeks What is the total

00:33

amount the company will pay in salaries for the four

00:35

week period and you can just round your answer to

00:38

the nearest dollars It's pretty interesting here looking be there

00:42

Six million nine hundred some that's where i want to

00:45

work apparently not all right Moving on well analyzing this

00:48

problems like tryingto list the reasons parents should not volunteer

00:52

to be chaperones at their kids promise it's hard to

00:55

know where to start calculating the number of seconds of

00:57

film a single animator can produce in one day seems

01:00

as good a place as any so we got one

01:02

hundred seventy five frames a day divided by twenty five

01:05

frames a second neck ids of seven seconds a day

01:09

Well a single animator can produce seven seconds per day

01:12

of the film time or video time or thirty five

01:15

seconds a week Well a twenty four minute episode is

01:18

twenty four times sixty one thousand four hundred forty seconds

01:22

So to finish the project on time the animators must

01:25

produce one thousand four hundred forty seconds divided by those

01:29

four weeks or three hundred sixty seconds per week And

01:33

we divide this number by the thirty five seconds per

01:35

week animator to find the minimum number of animators needed

01:38

to accomplish the job like megan and landon maybe hitting

01:42

up indeed or glass door to find some more animators

01:44

and that gets us three sixty divided by thirty five

01:46

and it's about ten point three We've never met anyone

01:49

who we considered point two eight or a point Three

01:52

of an animator there so round up round down the

01:54

minimum number of animators needed is eleven Rounding down would

01:58

give us ten and don't get the wrong answer because

02:01

we need a third of an animator there Tio make

02:03

up for the difference And if you only have a

02:05

twenty three point two minute episode well then it's not

02:09

ready and the network will reject you and not you

02:12

and that would be bad if only ten animators were

02:14

toe work There'd be a problem so we need eleven

02:17

animators and each one makes five fifty a week over

02:21

four weeks So if you multiply five fifty by four

02:24

there you get twenty two hundred and then you multiply

02:27

that by eleven and you get twenty four thousand two

02:30

hundred bucks and there we go The answer is a 00:02:33.13 --> [endTime] for animator
