There are 6 shirts in the batch

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

1. Screen printing a batch of shirts takes 0.4 minutes to make a shirt

2. The initial set time is 4 minutes

3. It takes 6.4 minutes to screen-print a batch of shirts

We need to find how many shirts are in the batch

Let us represent these information in a function

Assume that there are n shirts in the batch

Then t(n) is the total time to screen-print n shirts in the batch

∵ There is initial set time = 4 minutes

∵ It takes 0.4 minutes to make a shirt

∵ The number of shirts  = n

∴ t(n) = 0.4 n + 4

∵ It takes 6.4 minutes to screen-print a batch of shirts

∴ t(n) = 6.4

∵ t(n) = 0.4 n + 4

∴ 6.4 = 0.4 n + 4

- Subtract 4 from both sides

∴ 2.4 = 0.4 n

- Divide both sides by 0.4

∴ n = 6

There are 6 shirts in the batch

Now given a rope hanging from the top of a pole. The end lying on the ground is 3 chi long. When tightly stretchedit is 8 chi fr
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Height of the pole = 9.17 chi.

Length of the rope = 12.17 chi.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the rope is hanging from the top of a pole having height x chi and the portion of the rope lying on the ground is 3 chi.

So, the length of the rope= x + 3 chi.

Let AB represents the pole in the figure, and one end of the rope is at point A.

When the rope is tightly stretched, let C be the other end of the rope as shown in the triangle.

The length of the rope = AC.

\Rightarrow AC=x+3 chi.

Distance from the bottom of the pole, point A, to the other end of the pole, point B, is 8 chi.

So, BC=8 chi.

As the triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle, so by using Pythagoras theorem,

AC^2= AB^2+BC^2

\Rightarrow (x+3)^2=x^2+8^2

\Rightarrow x^2+6x+9=x^2+64

\Rightarrow 6x=64-9=55

\Rightarrow x=55/6=9.17 chi.

Hence, the height of the pole, AB=x=9.17 chi,

and the length of the rope, x+3=9.17+3=12.17 chi.
