Answer: 200 bulbs will not be defective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of defective bulbs to good bulbs produced each day is 2 to 10. This ratio can also be expressed as 1 to 5 by reducing to lowest terms.

The total ratio is the sum of the proportions.

Total ratio = 1 + 5 = 6

This means that if n bulbs is produced, the number of defective bulbs would be

1/6 × n

The number of non defective would be

5/6 × n

Since n = 240, then the number of bulbs that will not be defective is

5/6 × 240 = 200 bulbs

For the rational function f(x)=5−xx2+5x+6, find the points on the graph at the function value f(x)=3.
Anit [1.1K]

Given:

The rational function is:

f(x)=\dfrac{5-x}{x^2+5x+6}

To find:

The points on the graph at the function value f(x)=3.

Solution:

We have,

f(x)=\dfrac{5-x}{x^2+5x+6}

Substituting f(x)=3, we get

3=\dfrac{5-x}{x^2+5x+6}

3(x^2+5x+6)=5-x

3x^2+15x+18=5-x

Moving all the terms on one side, we get

3x^2+15x+18-5+x=0

3x^2+16x+13=0

Splitting the middle term, we get

3x^2+3x+13x+13=0

3x(x+1)+13(x+1)=0

(3x+13)(x+1)=0

Using zero product property, we get

(3x+13)=0\text{ or }(x+1)=0

x=-\dfrac{13}{3}\text{ or }x=-1

Therefore, the required values are -\dfrac{13}{3},-1.
