In a paint factory, an old conveyer line has filled 40 barrels of paint, and is filling more at a rate of 10 barrels per minute.

A worker just switched on a newer line that can fill 12 barrels per minute. In a little while, the two lines will have filled an equal number of barrels. How long will that take? How many barrels will each line have filled?

Answer:

20 minutes; 240 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

Old line = 40 + 10t

New line = 12t

Equal when,

40 + 10t = 12t

40 = 2t

t = 20 minutes

Each line will have:

12t = 12(20) = 240 barrels

Answer:

20 minutes, 240 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

Old line:   b(x) = 40 + 10x, where x is the number of minutes elapsed.

New line:  b2(x) = 12x

Equating these two functions results in

40 + 10x = 12 x, which, when simplified, comes out to

40 = 2x, or x = 20.

An equal number of barrels will have been filled after 20 minutes.

That number is b2(20) = 12(20) = 240, or 240 barrels.

If a circle has an arc with the measure of 60° and the length of the arc is 50 in, what is the
Crazy boy [7]

Answer: radius = 47.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

An arc is a portion of the circumference of the circle. The formula for determining the length of an arc is expressed as

Length of arc = θ/360 × 2πr

Where

θ represents the central angle.

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

θ = 60 degrees

Length of arc = 50 inches

Therefore,

50 = 60/360 × 2 × 3.14 × r

Cross multiplying by 360, it becomes

18000 = 376.8r

r = 18000/376.8

r = 47.8 inches
