I believe you meant "why is the number of shifts multiplied by approximately 4.5 to obtain the total number of operators required to run the plant"
Answer and Explanation:
There are 3 shifts per day, 49 weeks per year and 5 shifts per operator per week
To get total number of operators required to run the plant, we multiply number of shifts in a year by number if operators per shift.
49 weeks×5 shifts= 245 shifts per operator per year
365×3 shifts= 1095 shifts per year
1095/245=4.5 operators per shift
total number of operators required to run the plant(per day) = 4.5×3= 13.5 approximately 14
total number of operators required to run the plant(per year) =4.5×1095=4927.5 approximately 4928
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
6
Answer:
a.) 4 half lives have passed
b) 9.388 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for exponential growth / decay is given as:

Where
is the final population
is the initial population
is the growth factor
is the time taken for the growth 'b'
is the amount of time
Here, we are given that:
= 6. 9 grams
= 110.4 grams

min
To find:
a.) Number of half lives taken for the decay.
b.) Total time in the decay.
Solution:
a.) Number of half lives taken for the decay is nothing but equal to
.
Putting the values in the formula, we get:

Therefore, the answer is:
<em>4 half lives </em>have passed.
b.) Total time of decay. We have to find the value of
here.
From answer of part a.):

Answer:
x = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>A triangle has 180°</em>.
That <em>third angle is 360 - 8x</em>.
So the equation is: <em>180 = 2x + x + 360 - 8x</em>.
Simplify: 180 = -5x + 360
Add/Subtract: 5x = 180
Divide: x = 36.
