Answer:

Hence, a carpenter can paint a maximum of 7 chairs.

Hence, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A carpenter has less than 120 min. to spend painting furniture each day.

Today, he has spent 30.5 min. painting a desk.

Now he will paint x chairs, each of which takes 12.5 min.

i.e. he will take a total of 12.5x minutes in painting 'x' chairs.

Also total time spent on painting furniture each day will be equal to time spent on painting a desk and all of the chairs.

Hence,

30.5+12.5x<120 (since the total time he spends on painting is less than 120 mins.)

⇒ 12.5 x<120-30.5

⇒ 12.5 x<89.5

⇒ x<7.16  ( on dividing both side of the inequality with 12.5)

Hence, a carpenter can paint a maximum of 7 chairs.

Most
assume 120 mins

30.5 spent
120=30.5=89.5 left

time/timeperdesk=number of desks
89.5/12.5=7.16

less
7 desks

Tyler concludes that 5x² will always have a larger output for the same value of x.

<u>Look at the graph below and the table given</u>

Take a random value: x = 0

  • When 5x², y = 0
  • When 2^x, y = 1

Here, 1 > 0, making 2^x > 5x²

Hence, 2^x is greater than 5x² at this point. making Tyler's point not applicable.

Disagree with Tyler's point.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

86

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the angles should add up to 180. So 32 + 64 is 96. Then you subtract 96 from 180 to get 86.
