Answer:
The machine can make 24 bottles of soda per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the graph of the relationship, we can see that the number of bottles per minute simply represent the slope of the line
Thus, by calculating the slope using the given points, we can have the number of bottles per minute
We have the formula as;
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(x1,y1) = (4,96)
(x2,y2) = (6,144)
m = (144-96)/(6-4) = 48/2 = 24
Using the triangle, we can find the angle lengths and using those and trig ratios, find the side lengths. Lets say the top side length is "y".
Using the Law of triangles, we can find the missing angle from 180-90-70=20 deg.
Then we can use the Law of sines,
sin(70)/13=sin(20)/y
y=sin(20)*13/sin(70)
y=15.34
Finally, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, (13)^2+(15.34)^2=x^2
x = 20.1
16500 Rounded to the nearest ten thousand is 20,000
