Answer:

This will help you answer the question

The most important thing to remember when writing a proportion is to keep the units the same in both ratios. You know the fractions are equivalent because each shows the ratio of girls to boys in the class. The first fraction shows the known ratio of girls to boys.

Ron's recycle shop had an old paper-shredding machine. Business was good, so he bought a new paper-shredding machine. The old ma
levacccp [35]

Answer: 1 hour 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The old machine could shred a truckload of paper in 4 hours.

Rate of work done by old machine = \dfrac{1}{4}

The new machine could shred the same truckload in 2 hours.

Rate of work done by new machine = \dfrac{1}{2}

Let 't' be the time taken by both of them working together , then we have the following equation:-

\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1+2}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{4}{3}=1\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{ hours}

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

Then, \dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{ hours}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times60=20\text{ minutes}

Hence, it will take 1 hour 20 minutes to shred the same truckload of paper if Ron runs both shredders at the same time.

9. A contestant on a game show must guess the price of a new car. The contestant will
iren [92.7K]

Given :

A contestant on a game show must guess the price of a new car. The contestant will  win if his guess is within $1000 of the price of the car.

To Find :

If the price of the car is  $24,995 and the contestant's guess is represented by g, what absolute value  inequality represents this situation.

Solution :

Let, range in which participant guess would be considered correct is r.

So, r should be in range $( 24,995 ± 1000 ).

( 24,995 - 1000 ) ≤ r ≤ ( 24,995 + 1000 )

23,995 ≤ r ≤ 25,995

Therefore, the correct inequality is 23,995 ≤ r ≤ 25,995 .

Hence, this is the required solution.
