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.

Help Please!! NO LINKS AND NEED EXPLANATION!
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Function 1: None of the Above

Function 2: Quadratic

Function 3: Linear

Step-by-step explanation:

Function 1: It isn't linear because the y-axis doesn't go up or down at a constant rate, it isn't quadratic because it doesn't have a vertex, and it isn't exponential because it doesn't continue going up.

Function 2: It has a vertex-(6,32)

Function 3: The y-axis goes up at a constant rate of 6.

What is the value of x in this triangle?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

  x = 33.49°

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig ratio is the sine:

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  siin(x) = 32/58

The angle measure is found using the inverse function:

  x = arcsin(32/58) ≈ 33.49°

Can someone help. Write a word problem about equal groups and act it out to solve
Alona [7]

Answer:

HOPE THAT MAY HELP YOU :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equal groups are illustrations of using the same variable.

A word problem that uses equal group is:  

Christopher traveled a distance of 5 miles yesterday; he traveled a distance of 4 miles earlier today. Calculate the total distance traveled  

The only condition for equal groups is that:  

The units or variable must be the same  

For instance:

Add 5 miles and 4 miles ----- This represents distance

Remove 2 liters from 7 liters --- This represents volume

Add 5 hours and quarter of an hour -- This represents time

And so on.
