Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

hours/laps=hours/laps

We know that it takes him 2 hours to run 12 laps. We don't know how long it will take him to run 60 laps, so we can say it takes x hours to run 60 laps.

2 hours/12 laps=x hours/60 laps

2/12=x/60

We want to find out what x is. In order to do this, we have to get x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything done to one side, has to be done to the other.

x is being divided by 60. The opposite of division is multiplication, so multiply both sides by 60.

60*2/12=x/60*60

60*2/12=x

10=x

It will take Lebron 10 hours to run 60 laps.

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Change in productivity will be 50%

So option (b) will be correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that it takes 8 hour to bake 800 pretzels

And there is a shift of 8 hours

So hourly production = $\frac{800}{8} =100$

Now the production is increases to 1200

Now hourly production = $\frac{1200}{8}=150$

So change in productivity = $\frac{150-100}{100}=50$ %

So option (b) will be correct answer

Let f be the function given by f(x)= (x-1)(x^2-4)/x^2-a. For what positive values of a is f continuous for all real numbers x?

9966 [12]

Answer:

a =1 and a=4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is

$f(x)=\frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{x^2-a}$

If we want f(x) to be continuous the denominator needs to be different to 0, otherwise f(x) will be indeterminate.

Now, for a a positive real we have that $x=\sqrt{a}$ will annulate the denominator, i.e

$(\sqrt{a})^2-a = a-a = 0$ . But, if a = 1 we have:

$f(x)=\frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{x^2-1} = \frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{(x-1)(x+1)}=\frac{(x^2-4)}{x+1}$

so, the value $x=\sqrt{a} = \sqrt{1} = 1$ won't annulate the denominator.

Now, for a = 4 we have:

$f(x)=\frac{(x-1)(x^2-4)}{x^2-4} = x-1$

so, the value $x=\sqrt{a} = \sqrt{4} = 2$ won't annulate the denominator.

In conclusion, for a=1 or a=1, the function will be continuos for all real numbers, since the denominator will never be 0.
