Delvig [45]

There are a few ways you can go about solving this question. One way is to use the given information to find how many tons of flour can be processed in one hour. If 27 tons can be processed in 3 hours, we can do 27 divided by 3 to find that 9 tons of flour can be processed per hour. Then, if we want to see how many tons of flour can be processed in 8 hours, we can multiply 9 tons by 8 hours to get a total of 72 tons of flour.

I hope this helps.

X^2-x+12 solve using the quadratic formula

devlian [24]

The quadratic formula is $x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$ .

From the problem, a is 1, b is -1, and c is 12. Plugging in these values gives:

$x=\frac{-(-1(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(1)(12)} }{2(1)}$

Because there is a square root of a negative number, there is no solution.

A copy machine makes 28 copies per minute. How many copies does it make in 3 minutes and 45 seconds?

lina2011 [118]

<u>Convert minutes and seconds to minutes:</u>
$\text{3 mins 45 seconds} \longrightarrow 3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{mins}$

<u>FInd 3 3/4 mins:</u>
$\text{1 min} \longrightarrow 28 \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 28 \times 3\dfrac{3}{4} \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 28 \times \dfrac{15}{4} \text{ copies}$

$3 \dfrac{3}{4} \text{ min} \longrightarrow 105 \text{ copies}$

Answer: It can make 105 copies.
