175 divided by 5 is your unit rate or how many cans it crushes in 1 minute. You get 35. Multiple 35 by 16. So 560 cans crushed in 16 minutes

You can set it up like this:

5/175 = 16/x

Cross multiply to get:

5x = 2800

Isolate x:

x = 560

Check:

In 16 minutes, the machine should be able to crush a little more than 3 times the amount it could crush in 5 minutes. So, 3 times 175 is 525. That plus a bit more is 560, so the answer makes sense. 

Final answer:

The recycle machine should be able to crush <em>560</em> pounds of cans in 16 minutes. 


Hope this helped!! xx

For which values of the variables the following equality is true?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

For The value of a = 0 and c = 0 , The given expression equality is true  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression as :

\frac{3a^{2}+ac+2c-6a}{3a - c} = a - 2

Or, 3 a² + ac + 2 c - 6 a = ( a - 2 ) × ( 3 a - c )

Or, 3 a² + ac + 2 c - 6 a =  3 a² - ac - 6 a + 2 c

Or, (  3 a² + ac + 2 c - 6 a ) - ( 3 a² - ac - 6 a + 2 c ) =0

Or, ( 3 a² - 3 a² ) + ( ac + ac ) + ( 2 c - 2 c ) + ( - 6 a + 6 a ) = 0

or,  0 + 2 ac + 0

Or, 2 ac = 0

∴  a =0  and c = 0

Hence For The value of a = 0 and c = 0 , The given expression equality is true  .  Answer
