To find how much time the machine that took the longer job is, you would create an equation in terms of X, the amount of time it takes one of the machines.

Please see the attached picture for the work.

51 minutes is the longer time.
34 minutes for the other machine.

Mai and Tyler work on the equation 2/5b+1=-11 together. Mais soulution is b=-25 and Tyler’s is b=-28. Here is their work. Do you
Anika [276]

Answer:

No I don't agree with their solution; both their answers are wrong.

Correct answer is b=-30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\frac{2}{5}b+1=-11

Now given:

According to Mai b = -25 and According to Tyler b = -28

Now we need to find which of them is correct.

So we will solve the given equation we get;

\frac{2}{5}b+1=-11

Subtracting both side by 1 we get;

\frac{2}{5}b+1-1=-11-1\\\\\frac{2}{5}b =-12

Now Multiplying both side \frac{5}{2} we get;

\frac{2}{5}b\times\frac{5}{2}= -12 \times \frac{5}{2}\\\\b=-6\times 5\\\\b=-30

Hence both of them are incorrect, correct answer is b=-30.

Calculate limits x&gt;-infinity<br> -2x^5-3x+1
Lera25 [3.4K]

Given:

The limit problem is:

\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)

To find:

The value of the given limit problem.

Solution:

We have,

\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)

In the function -2x^5-3x+1, the degree of the polynomial is 5, which is an odd number and the leading coefficient is -2, which is a negative number.

So, the function approaches to positive infinity as x approaches to negative infinity.

\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty

Therefore, \lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty.
