Answer:

You require 10 helpers

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem could be solved in many ways ( like using an optimization software) but I propose you this.

Start with production of large cakes.  In the time kitchen is available one helper could make, if only works in large cakes:

(2 large cakes / 1 hour) * (3 hours ) = 6 large cakes

So with 3 helpers using all their 3 hours we would have

3 helpers *6 large cakes /helper  = 18 large cakes.

We need 2 more large cakes so we can use one more helper and in his first hour he can produce

(2 large cakes / 1 hour) * (1 hour ) = 2 large cakes

The 4th helper has two hours of work left so he can produce small cakes.

(35 small cakes/hour* 2 hours = 70 small cakes.

With 4 helpers we have the 20 large cakes and 70 small ones. We still have to makes

700 - 70 = 630 small cakes left

In the 3 hour period a helper can make

(35 small cakes / 1 hour) * (3 hours ) = 105 large cakes

So if 1 helper does  105 large cakes  we would need to finish production with

630 / 105 =  6 helpers

So in total we have 3 helpers in only large cakes 6 in only small cakes and one helper doing both - total 10 helpers

The figure shows a triangle with an angle bisector. If angle SUT= 34°, find the measurement of angle 1?
Burka [1]

The ANGLE BISECTOR mentioned in the problem is simply just a line that separates an angle in half.

Meaning if it bisects ∠SUT which is 34. It just means that it divides the angle 34 into 2 equal parts.

Therefore ∠1 is just one-half of the ∠SUT.

\begin{gathered} m\angle1=\frac{\angle SUT}{2} \\ m\angle1=\frac{34}{2} \\ m\angle1=17 \end{gathered}

Therefore the measurement of ∠1 is 17°.
