Answer:

It will take Machine A 20 additional minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have get the rate of work per hour, Machine A builds 1/2 of a car per hour, while Machine B builds 1/3 of a car per hour.

Using this we can determine the amount of work that has been done so far in one hour before Machine B broke down:

1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6

Now we can produce an equation accordingly to determine how much time it'll take machine a to finish the job:

5/6 + 1/2x = 1

1/2x = 1/6

x = 1/3 hours = 20 minutes

Note: In the question you typed "how much additional time will it take machine b to finish" but I think you meant machine a because machine b broke down. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hope this helps! And let me know if you have any questions!

The answer is 290. First calculate the area of the rectangle part on the bottom. area=20*9=180 square yards. Then calculate the area of the triangle on the top. Base length is 20, while the height is 20-9=11, so the area is 20*11/2=110. 180+110=290 square yards in total.

the length of a rectangle is 2 inches longer than twice its width. If the area of the rectangle is 24 square inches, what are th
gregori [183]

Answer:

The length is 8 inches and the width is 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width.

The length can be represented by 2w + 2

Use the area formula, A = lw, and plug in the area and the expressions for the length and width:

A = lw

24 = (2w + 2)(w)

Simplify and solve for w:

24 = 2w² + 2w

2w² + 2w - 24

Divide everything by 2:

w² + w - 12

Factor:

(w + 4)(w - 3)

Set equal to 0 and solve for each factor:

w + 4 = 0

w = -4

w - 3 = 0

w = 3

Since the width cannot be negative, the width has to be 3.

Next, find the length by plugging in 3 as w:

2w + 2

2(3) + 2

= 8

So, the length is 8 inches and the width is 3 inches

Construct a polynomial function with the following properties: third degree, only real coefficients, −3 and 3+i are two of the z
irina [24]

Answer:

\boxed{-3(x+3)(x^2-6x+10)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

As the polynomial has only real coefficients, it means that 3-i is a zero too, because we apply the Conjugate Zeros Theorem.

It means that we can write the expression as below, k being a real number that we will have to identify.

k(x+3)(x-3-i)(x-3+i)=k(x+3)((x-3)^2-i^2)\\\\=k(x+3)(x^2-6x+9+1)\\\\=k(x+3)(x^2-6x+10)

And for x = 0, y = -90 so we can write

-90=k*3*10, meaning that k=-3

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you
