Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears that the number of bulbs produced on the first shift is quite a bit more than the second shift.  5.5 times more, actually.  That means that the first shift's output is based on the second shift's output.  Second shift produced an unknown number of bulbs, so we will call that number x.  First shift produced 5.5 times more, so first shift produced 5.5x.  The total number of bulbs produced between the 2 shifts is given as 16,250, so

x + 5.5x = 16,250 so

6.5x = 16,250 and

x = 2500

The second shift produced 2500 bulbs, and the first shift produced 5.5(2500) = 13,750 bulbs.

The length of a rectangle 4 yd is longer than its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 68 yd, find its length and width.
natulia [17]

w + 4

------------------------

l l

l l w

l l

------------------------

Perimeter would be the sum of all the sides so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w

Perimeter is 60 yards according to your problem so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w = 60 yds

1.Simplify/combine like terms:

w + 4 + w + w + 4 + w =

4w + 8 =

Now it's a 2-step algebra equation

4w + 8 = 60

2.Subtract 8 on both sides

4w = 56

3.Divide both sides by 4

w = 14

If point C is between points A and B, then AC + CB = ___.
mario62 [17]

The correct answer is: AB

Explanation:

There are two ways you can understand this:

1. By drawing:

A ------ C ------B

As you can see the point C is between A and point B, hence AC + CB = AB. One thing to remember here is that point C can be anywhere between the point A and B, in that case, the answer will remain be the same AB. For instance:

A --- C -------------B

Again, AC + CB = AB.

2. By inference:

If the point C is between points A and B, it means that the point C lies on the line AB; if point C were not on the line AB, it will not be between points A and B. Hence, you can infer that AB is a line and point C lies on it and is between points A and B.
