Answer:

12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Candles can be manually packed at the rate of ...

... (400 candles)/(36 minutes) = 11 1/9 candles/minute

The two systems together pack candles at the rate of ...

... (400 candles)/(9 minutes) = 44 4/9 candles/minute

Then the machine's packing rate is the difference between the total and the manual rates:

... machine rate = (44 4/9 candles/minute) - (11 1/9 candles/minute)

... = 33 1/3 candles/minute.

At this rate, the machine working alone can pack 400 candles in ...

... (400 candles)/(33 1/3 candles/minute) = (400/(100/3)) minutes

... = 400 × 3/100 minutes = 12 minutes

If the domain of a function that is reflected over the x-axis is (1, 5), (2, 1), (-1, -7), what is the range?
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

A. (1, -5), (2, -1), (-1, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflecting a function over the x-axis:

When a function is reflected over the x-axis, the x-value stays the same, while y changes the signal, so the transformation rule is:

(x,y) \rightarrow (x,-y)

To find the range:

We apply the transformation to the points in the domain. Thus:

(1,5) \rightarrow (1,-5)

(2,1) \rightarrow (2,-1)

(-1,-7) \rightarrow (-1,-(-7)) = (-1, 7)

Thus the correct answer is given by option a.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

\frac{2x}{x+7}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

(\frac{x-3}{x+7})(\frac{2x}{x-3})

When multiply two fractions:

Multiply the numerators of the fractions to get the new numerator.

Multiply the denominators of the fractions to get the new denominator

so

(\frac{x-3}{x+7})(\frac{2x}{x-3})=\frac{(x-3)(2x)}{(x+7)(x-3)}

(x-3) cancels out

\frac{2x}{x+7}
