Rachel: 3 bracelets in an hour.
Oliver: 2 bracelets in an hour but has completed 5 bracelets

Rachel : y = 3x
Oliver : y = 2x + 5

Let x be the number of hours. y is the total number of bracelets made in x hours.

3x = 2x + 5
3x - 2x = 5
x = 5

It would take 5 hours for Rachel to have the same number of bracelet as Oliver.

Rachel: 3x = 3(5) = 15
Oliver: 2x + 5 = 2(5) + 5 = 10 + 5 = 15

Answer:

Hence, she will have the same number of bracelets as oliver after 5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rachel can make 3 bracelets in an hour. Oliver can make only 2 bracelets in an hour, but he already has completed 5 bracelets.

Let b be the total number of bracelets made.

so the number of bracelets made by Rachel in 'h' hours is: b=3h

and the number of bracelets made by Oliver in 'h' hours is: b=2h+5.

We are asked to find the value of 'h' so that the number of bracelets made by both of them are equal.

i.e.

3h=2h+5

⇒  3h-2h=5

⇒  h=5.

Hence, she will have the same number of bracelets as oliver after 5 hours.

( and they will make b=3×5=15 bracelets )

You are designing a container in the shape of a cylinder. The radius is 5 inches. You want the container to hold at least 725π c
12345 [234]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: h = 14.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

radius = 5 in

Volume = 725 π in³

height = ?

Formula

               Volume = 2πr²h

           

Substitution

                     725 π in³ = 2πr² h

                    h = 725π / 2πr²

                    h = 725 / 2(5)²

                    h = 725 / 50

                    h = 14.5 in

Because multiplication has a higher precedence over addition, we'll multiply the numbers first:
18 + 48
Then we simply add:
