Answer:

  • first shift: 13,750 bulbs
  • second shift: 2500 bulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The production ratio is ...

  shift 1 : shift 2 = 5.5 : 1 = 11 : 2

so, the production on shift 1 as a ratio to the total is ...

  shift 1 : total = 11 : (11+2) = 11 : 13

The first shift produced ...

  (11/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 13,750 bulbs . . . . first shift

and the second shift produced ...

  (2/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 2,500 bulbs . . . . second shift

_____

Of course, once you have one of the numbers, you can also find the other by using the 5.5 factor or by subtracting from total production.

Question 12 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)(07.05 MC)1086Which of the following functions best represents the graph?fix)=(x-2)(x
vlada-n [284]

The graph of a function is given. It is required to find the function that represents the graph.

Notice from the graph that the function has roots or zeros at -3,-2, and 2.

Hence, the function takes the form:

\begin{gathered} f(x)=a(x-(-3))(x-(-2))(x-2) \\ \Rightarrow f(x)=a(x+3)(x+2)(x-2) \end{gathered}

Where a is a constant to be determined.

Notice that the given graph passes through the point (0,-12).

Substitute x=0 and f(x)=-12 into the equation of the function to find a:

\begin{gathered} -12=a(0+3)(0+2)(0-2) \\ \Rightarrow-12=a(3)(2)(-2) \\ \Rightarrow-12=-12a \\ \text{ Swap the sides of the equation:} \\ \Rightarrow-12a=-12 \\ \text{ Divide both sides by }-12: \\ \Rightarrow\frac{-12a}{-12}=\frac{-12}{-12} \\ \Rightarrow a=1 \end{gathered}

Hence, the function is:

\begin{gathered} f(x)=1(x+3)(x+2)(x-2) \\ \Rightarrow f(x)=(x+2)(x+3)(x-2) \end{gathered}<h2>The third option is the answer: f(x)=(x+2)(x+3)(x-2).</h2>
