Answer:
4 Hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that the rate of the machines 1/x, because every time they complete an order, it takes them x hours. To find x, we have to add the the rates of the individual machines, which would equal the rate of the machines working together. We know that there are four machines working together at the same rate, and it took them 32 hours.
So:
1/x + 1/x + 1/x + 1/x = 1/32
1/4x = 1/32
4x = 32
x = 8
Thus, the rate of the machines is 1/8.
Now we have to find the time of the order with only half of the machines working together. This time, we don't know the combined rate, so I'll substitute it for y.
1/8 + 1/8 = 1/y
1/4 = 1/y
y = 4
The time taken to complete it is 4 hours.
Answer:
The answer is 43 and 19 over 21
Step-by-step explanation:
21 goes into 922 43 times. This giving you 903. 43 Will then be your Whole number. You the subtract 922 by 903, this giving you 19. 19 is going to be your numerator. Then you always keep the denomonator which is 21. This giving you 43 and 19 over 21
Step-by-step explanation:
the surface area consists of 6 individual areas :
front and back (both are equal)
left and right (both are equal)
top and bottom
front and back are trapezoids.
the area of a trapezoid is
(base 1 + base 2)/2 × h
the bases are the 2 parallel sides.
in our case the area of one trapezoid is
(5 + 19)/2 × 12.1 = 145.2 ft²
front and back together then are 290.4 ft².
left and right are 8×14 rectangles:
8×14 = 112 ft²
together they are 224 ft².
the bottom is a 5×8 rectangle :
5×8 = 40 ft²
the top is a 19×8 rectangle :
19×8 = 152 ft²
so, the total surface area is
290.4 + 224 + 40 + 152 = 706.4 ft²
