Answer:

3 hours 40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that we have 1320 garments and it takes an employee 20 seconds to tag a garment.

1 employee tags one garment in 20 seconds.

So garments tagged by 1 employees in 1 minute will be \frac{60}{20} =3 garments.

2 employees will tag 3*2=6 garments in 1 minute.

To find the total time it will take two employees to tag all the garments we will divide total number of garments by 6.

\text{Time taken by two employees to tag 1320 garments}=\frac{1320}{6}

\text{Time taken by two employees to tag 1320 garments}=220

Therefore, it will take 220 minutes or 3 hours and 40 minutes for 2 employees to tag 1320 garments.

Answer:

13,200 Seconds, or 220 Minutes


Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Since there are 2 employees working at the same time, so in 20 seconds, they will be tagging a total of 2 garments. So we can say the rate is:</u>

rate = \frac{20 Seconds}{2 Garments}


So how long would it take to tag 1320 garments?

<em>We set up the ratio, cross multiply, and solve.</em>

\frac{TimeInSeconds}{NumberOfGarments}=\frac{20}{2}=\frac{x}{1320}}\\\frac{20}{2}=\frac{x}{1320}\\20*1320=2x\\x=\frac{26400}{2}=13,200 seconds


Or in minutes, we divide by 60, so we have:

\frac{13,200}{60}=220 Minutes

What is the equation of a circle with center (-4 2) and diameter 6?
ASHA 777 [7]

Use the general form:-

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 where (a, b) is the centre and r = radius

Here the radius = 1/2 * 6 = 3 so r^2 = 9 and we have the equation:-

(x + 4)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 9 (answer)

Bob can paint a fence in 12 hours, and working with Jen can paint a fence in 4 hours. How long would it have taken Jen to paint
butalik [34]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For Bob

12 hours = 1 fence

1 hour = 1/12 fence

Together Bob and Jen

4 hours = 1 fence

1 hour = 1/4 fence

Now, for Jen:

1 hour = 1/4 - 1/12= 3/12 - 1/12 = 2/12=1/6

Find the amount of time Jen will need:

1/6 fence = 1 hour

1 fence = 6 hour

pogonyaev

Answer:

13.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of the hourly wage is the sum of the probabilities (percentage of time spent on each job) multiplied by the payoff (money earned) from each possible occurrence (job):

(0.6 × 11) + (0.25 × 19) + (0.15 × 16) = $13.75.
