There are two ways you can find the answer to this question and both ways will give you the correct answer.

Method One:

If 240 bolts are produce in 25 minutes
then the number of bolts produced per minute = 240bolts ÷ 25min
= 9.6 bolts/ min

∴ bolts produced in 45 minutes = 9.6 bolts/min × 45min
= 432 bolts

Method TWO

240 bolts is produced in 25 mins 240 bolts → 25 mins
x bolts are produced in 45 mins x → 45 mins

25x = (240)(45)
x = 10800 ÷ 25
= 432

Answer:

value of x = 2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

By law of cosines,

${a}^{2} = {b}^{2} + {c}^{2} - 2 \times b \times c \times cos(100) \\ {x}^{2} = {13}^{2} + {10}^{2} - (2 \times 13 \times 10 \times cos100) \\ = 169 + 100 - 260 \times 0.862 \\ = 269 - 260 \times 0.862 \\ = 7.758 \\x = \sqrt{7.758 } \\ = 2.785 \\ = approx \: 2.8$
