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.

If the exterior angle of a regular octagon measures 11x + 1 what is the value of x?
Basile [38]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angles of an octagon equal 45 degrees. So if the angles are 11x+1, set it equal to 45 and solve for x.

11x+1 = 45

11x = 44

x= 4
