You can make an equation for each situation where x is the number of bags and y is equal to the total number of oranges.

5x + 1 = y

4x + 3 = y

With substitution: 5x + 1 = 4x + 3

Solve for x.

5x - 2 = 4x

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

There is 2 bags, so plug that into either equation:

4x + 3 = y

y = 4*2 + 3

y = 11 oranges

Find the intervals on which f(x)=2xx2+64 increases.
Shtirlitz [24]

f(0)=64, f(1)=66, f(2)=72, f(3)=82, f(4)=96,...=2,6,10,14,...=2{1,3,5,7,...}
This can be written 2{2x+1}, so the intervals on which f(x) increases are 4x+2.

A factory has four machines that produce the same item. Machines 1 and 2 each produce 20% of the total output, while machines 3
andrezito [222]

Answer:

The answers are a. 0.27 b. 0.2 c. 0.2 d. 0.3 e. 0.3 f. 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Total output = 100% = 1

Total defective = 6% + 5% + 8% + 8% = 27% = 27

a. Prob of defective item = total defective/total output

= 27/100

= 0.27

b. Prob of defective from machine 1 = 6/27 =0.2222

~ 0.2

c. Prob of item defective from machine2 = 5/27 = 0.1852

~0.2

d. Prob of de defective from machine 3 = 8/27 = 0.2963

~0.3

e. Prob of defective from machine 4

= 8/27 = 0.2963

~ 0.3

f. Sum of prob from b-e

0.2 + 0.2 + 0.3 + 0.3

= 1

Circle O is inscribed in ABC. What is the perimeter of ABC
xenn [34]

Since O is inscribed in triangle ABC, you know that AB, AC, and BC are all tangent to the circle. The tangent segments theorem asserts that AD is congruent to A F; BD is congruent to BE; and CF is congruent to CE. (NOTE: E is the point where the circle touches BC - I've taken the liberty of labeling it as such.)

Then the perimeter P of triangle ABC will be twice the sum of the labeled edges:

P=2(12\,\mathrm{cm}+16\,\mathrm{cm}+6\,\mathrm{cm})=72\,\mathrm{cm}
