Machine A produces bolts at a uniform rate of 120 every 40 seconds, and Machine B produces bolts at a uniform rate of 100 every

20 seconds. If the two machines run simultaneously, how many seconds will it take for them to produce a total of 200 bolts?

Answer:

25 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

In order to answer this question, first we need to know how many bolts per second are produced by each machine, this can be known by dividing the number of bolts by the time it takes.

For machine A:

A = \frac{120 bolts}{40 s}= 3 \frac{bolts}{s}

For machine B:

B = \frac{100 bolts}{20 s}= 5 \frac{bolts}{s}

So, if the two machines run simultaneously, we will have a rate of prodcution of bolts equal to the sum of both:

A+B=(3+5)\frac{bolts}{s}=8\frac{bolts}{s}

Now, we need to know how much time it will take to producee 200 bolts, to find this out we need to divide the amount of bolts by the production rate:

t = \frac{bolts}{ProductionRate}= \frac{200 bolts}{8 \frac{bolts}{s} }

The <em>bolts</em> unit cancell each other and we are left with <em>seconds</em>

t = \frac{200}{8} s = 25 s

So it will take 25 seconds to produce 200 bolts with machine A and B running simultaneously.

Greetings!

Answer:

25 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Machine A produces bolts at a uniform rate of 120 every 40 seconds.

Bolts made by Machine A in one second would be \frac{120}{40}=3 bolts.

Machine B produces bolts at a uniform rate of 100 every 20 seconds.

Bolts made by Machine B in one second would be \frac{100}{20}=5 bolts.

The speed of making bolts in one second of both machines running simultaneously would be 3+5=8 bolts per second.

\text{Time taken by both Machines to make 200 bolts}=\frac{200\text{ bolts}}{8\frac{\text{bolts}}{\text{Sec}}}

\text{Time taken by both Machines to make 200 bolts}=\frac{200\text{ bolts}}{8}*\frac{\text{Sec}}{\text{bolts}}

\text{Time taken by both Machines to make 200 bolts}=25\text{ Sec}

Therefore, the both machines will take 25 seconds to make 200 bolts.

Prove that if {x1x2.......xk}isany
Radda [10]

Answer:

See the proof below.

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need to proof is this: "Assuming X a vector space over a scalar field C. Let X= {x1,x2,....,xn} a set of vectors in X, where n\geq 2. If the set X is linearly dependent if and only if at least one of the vectors in X can be written as a linear combination of the other vectors"

Proof

Since we have a if and only if w need to proof the statement on the two possible ways.

If X is linearly dependent, then a vector is a linear combination

We suppose the set X= (x_1, x_2,....,x_n) is linearly dependent, so then by definition we have scalars c_1,c_2,....,c_n in C such that:

c_1 x_1 +c_2 x_2 +.....+c_n x_n =0

And not all the scalars c_1,c_2,....,c_n are equal to 0.

Since at least one constant is non zero we can assume for example that c_1 \neq 0, and we have this:

c_1 v_1 = -c_2 v_2 -c_3 v_3 -.... -c_n v_n

We can divide by c1 since we assume that c_1 \neq 0 and we have this:

v_1= -\frac{c_2}{c_1} v_2 -\frac{c_3}{c_1} v_3 - .....- \frac{c_n}{c_1} v_n

And as we can see the vector v_1 can be written a a linear combination of the remaining vectors v_2,v_3,...,v_n. We select v1 but we can select any vector and we get the same result.

If a vector is a linear combination, then X is linearly dependent

We assume on this case that X is a linear combination of the remaining vectors, as on the last part we can assume that we select v_1 and we have this:

v_1 = c_2 v_2 + c_3 v_3 +...+c_n v_n

For scalars defined c_2,c_3,...,c_n in C. So then we have this:

v_1 -c_2 v_2 -c_3 v_3 - ....-c_n v_n =0

So then we can conclude that the set X is linearly dependent.

And that complet the proof for this case.
