8000 from plant A with 1% defective
x        from plant B  with 4% defective
8000 + x = y           with 3% defective

da/a = 0.01 -> 80 = da 
db/b = 0.04 -> db = 0.04b
(da+db)/(a+b) = 0.03

(80+b*0.04)/(8000+b) = 0.03
80+b*0.04 = 0.03*(8000+b)
80+b*0.04 = 240 + 0.03b
80 - 240 = 0.03b - b*0.04
-160 = -0.01b
b = 160/0.01
b = 16000

the panels from the plant b were 16000

76÷4= ; x=19, you divide 76 by 4 because if he is 1/4 then it would be a group of one of the 4's, thus saying ehen you divide 76 by 4, it equals 19, so he is 19 years old, you could also do 19×4 and 22×4 to see which equals 76.

On a number line what is the distance between -12 and 20 ??
KIM [24]

Answer:  Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer this question you will need to find 2 distances and then add them to each other.

Begin at -29.  How far will you have to move to the right 29 in order to get to 0?

Now how far will you have to more to get from 0 to 100?

Draw an open number line to help you.

_____________________________________________________

-29                                           0                                                   100

Your first distance is 29.  Your second distance is 100.  The total distance is 129.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 128 inches.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Considering the perimeter of the rectangle, we have that the length is of 9 inches and the width is of 55 inches.

<h3>What is the perimeter of a rectangle?</h3>

The perimeter of a rectangle of length l and width w is given as follows:

P = 2(l + w).

The length is an odd integer and the width is <u>5 times the next consecutive odd integer,</u> hence:

l = x, w = 5(x + 2).

The perimeter is of 128 inches, hence:

128 = 2l + 2w

128 = 2x + 10(x + 2)

128 = 2x + 10x + 20

12x = 108

x = 9.

Hence the length is of 9 inches and the width is of 55 inches.
