Andy and Jacob work as technicians in a laboratory where gemstones are tested and certified. Andy has already tested 30 gemstone

s and continues testing at a rate of 30 gemstones per hour. Jacob has already tested 40 gemstones and continues testing at a rate of 25 gemstones per hour. Which function can Andy and Jacob use to determine the total number of gemstones they have tested after x hours? How many gemstones will they have tested after 5 hours? A. The function that describes the total number of gemstones tested by Andy and Jacob in x hours is given by f(x) = 55x + 10. Thus, they will have tested 285 gemstones in 5 hours. B. The function that describes the total number of gemstones tested by Andy and Jacob in x hours is given by f(x) = 70x + 55. Thus, they will have tested 405 gemstones in 5 hours. C. The function that describes the total number of gemstones tested by Andy and Jacob in x hours is given by f(x) = 55x + 70. Thus, they will have tested 345 gemstones in 5 hours. D. The function that describes the total number of gemstones tested by Andy and Jacob in x hours is given by f(x) = 60x + 65. Thus, they will have tested 365 gemstones in 5 hours.

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy tested gemstones already = 30

Jacob tested gemstones already = 40

Total gemstones tested by Andy and Jacob already = 30+40 = 70

Andy continue to test gemstones per hour = 30

Jacob continue to test gemstones per hour = 25

Total gemstones tested by Andy and Jacob per hour = 30 +25 = 55

The total number of gemstones tested by Andy and Jacob after x hours will be: 55x

So, the equation will be: f(x) = 55x + 70

After 5 hours i.e. x =5

f(5) = 55(5) + 70

f(5) = 275 + 70

f(5) = 345

Andy and Jacob will have tested 345 gemstones in 5 hours.

So, Option C is correct.

Answer:

x = 97.6

Step-by-step explanation:

cos = adjacent over hypotenuse

cos(55)=\frac{56}{x}

* multiply each side by x *

cos(55)*x=xcos(55)\\\frac{56}{x} *x=56\\56=xcos(55)

* divide each side by cos ( 55 ) *

\frac{xcos(55)}{cos(55)} =x\\\frac{56}{cos(55)} =97.63302055

we're left with x = 97.63302055

Our last step is to round to the nearest tenth of a foot

We get that x = 97.6

Terry is buying water. He needs 22 liters. A half-liter of water costs $2.11. A 200 -milliliter container of water costs $1.01.
Dvinal [7]

Answer: Terry should buy the half-liter of water that costs $2.11 because buying 200 litres here is cheaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Terry is buying water and needs 22 liters. A half-liter of water costs $2.11. Using this information, 22 litres will cost:

= 22 ÷ 1/2 × 2.11

= 22 × 2 × 2.11

= $92.84

Also, A 200 -milliliter container of water costs $1.01. Using this information, 22 litres will cost:

= 22 × 1.01 ÷ 200/1000

= 22 × 1.01 × 1000/200

= 22 × 1.01 × 5

= $111.1

Based on this information, Terry should buy the half-liter of water that costs $2.11 because buying 200 litres here is cheaper.

Can the three angles 25 65 and 90 create one unique triangle
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Yes, it can. Triangles [in order for them to be one] must equal 180. If you add all of these angles together, since a triangle only has three angles anyway, it equals to 180, so you know it's a triangle.

If this was confusing, I am happy to help further!
