Answer:

947

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the bigger number be y and the smaller number be x

The difference between the two numbers is written as:

y - x

But from the question we were told that the difference between the two numbers is 685. Therefore,

y - x = 685

Also, from the question, we were told that the smaller number (x) is 262. Therefore,

y - x = 685 becomes:

y - 262 = 685

Collect like terms

y = 685 + 262

y = 947

Therefore, the other number is 947

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y 

x - y = 685

Let the smaller number be y 

x - 262 = 685

x = 685 + 262

Therefore x = 947

The time to assemble the first unit on a production line is 8 hours. The learning rate is 0.81. Approximately how long will it t

pochemuha

Answer:

4.428 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If the learning rate is 0.81, the slope of the learning curve is:

$b=\frac{ln(0.81)}{ln(2)} \\b=-0.304$

The time it takes to produce the n-th unit is:

$T_n=T_1*n^b$

If T1 = 8 hours, the time required to produce the seventh unit will be:

$T_n=8*7^{-0.304}\\T_n=4.428\ hours$

It will take roughly 4.428 hours.

Find the value of x and each angle if m angle SOP= (7y-2) and m angle SOR = (5y+14)

Semmy [17]

Answer:

x = 14

m∠SOP = (7x - 2)° = 96°

m∠SOR = (5x + 14) = 84°

Step-by-step explanation:

`From the given picture,

Angle SOP and angle SOR are the linear pairs.

Therefore, sum of these angles will be equal to to 180°.

m∠SOP + m∠SOR = 180° -----(1)

Since, m∠SOP = (7x - 2)° and m∠SOR = (5x + 14)°

[There is a misprint in this question. There should be x in place of y in the measures of the angles]

By substituting these values in the equation (1),

(7x - 2) + (5x + 14) = 180

12x + 12 = 180

12x = 180 - 12

12x = 168

x = $\frac{168}{12}$

x = 14

m∠SOP = (7x - 2)° = 96°

m∠SOR = (5x + 14) = 84°

Given the two expressions below: 1) 4x2 − 8x + 9 2) 3x2 + 2y + 6 Is the sum of the two expressions above a polynomial? Why or wh

Mkey [24]

Sum of polynomials are always polynomials.

Note that despite it's name, single constants, monomials, binomials, trinomials, and expressions with more than three terms are all polynomials.
For example,
0, π sqrt(2)x, 4x+2, x^2+3x+4, x^2-x^2, x^5+x/ π -1
are all polynomials.

What makes an expression NOT a polynomial?
Expressions that contain non-integer or negative powers of variables, rational functions, infinite series.
For example,
sqrt(x+1), 1/x+4, 1+x+ x^2/2!+x^3/3!+x^4/4!+...., (5x+3)/(6x+7)
are NOT polynomials.

The width of a kitchen is 4.2 metres.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

11,67

Step-by-step explanation:

In the order to get the answer, we need to get the right measurements. That is turn the cm into m or 60 cm to 0,6 m because 1 cm is 0.01m. How many cupboards in a kitchen that is 4,2 m long? To get the answer just divide 4,2 m with 0,6 m, and that is 11,67 cupboards in a 4,2 m long kitchen.
