The old photocopier can make x manuals in an hour. The new photocopier can make 4x. Combined, they made 5x manuals in an hour.

In one hour they can make 1/28 of the manuals.

1/(28*5)=1/140 is the rate.

The new photocopier can make all the manuals in 4/140 or 35 hours.

The old one can make them in 140 hours.

2. How many real number solutions are there to the equation 0 =-3x2 + x - 4?
goblinko [34]

For this case we have the following quadratic equation:

-3x ^ 2 + x-4 = 0

Where:

a = -3\\b = 1\\c = -4

By definition, the discriminant of a quadratic equation is given by:

d = b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)

We have to:

d> 0: Two different real roots

dTwo different complex roots

d = 0: Two equal real roots

Substituting the values we have:

d = 1 ^ 2-4 (-3) (- 4)\\d = 1-48\\d = -47

So, we have two different complex roots

Answer:

Two different complex roots

A 47-foot-long piece of pipe is to be cut into three pieces. The second piece is three times as long as the first piece, and the
DanielleElmas [232]
A = first piece, b = second piece, c = third piece

a + b + c = 47
b = 3a
c = 5a + 2

a + (3a) + (5a + 2) = 47.....combine like terms
9a + 2 = 47
9a = 47 - 2
9a = 45
a = 45/9
a = 5 ft

b = 3a.....b = 3(5)....b = 15 ft
c = 5a + 2....c = 5(5) + 2.....c = 25 + 2....c = 27 ft

longest piece (c) = 27 ft
