Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
It appears that the number of bulbs produced on the first shift is quite a bit more than the second shift. 5.5 times more, actually. That means that the first shift's output is based on the second shift's output. Second shift produced an unknown number of bulbs, so we will call that number x. First shift produced 5.5 times more, so first shift produced 5.5x. The total number of bulbs produced between the 2 shifts is given as 16,250, so
x + 5.5x = 16,250 so
6.5x = 16,250 and
x = 2500
The second shift produced 2500 bulbs, and the first shift produced 5.5(2500) = 13,750 bulbs.
Angle x is supplementary to the angle with 156 degrees. What this means is that the sum of the two angles is 180 degrees. With this knowledge you can make a formula like so...
156 + x = 180
Now you can solve for x by subtracting 156 to both sides
156 - 156 + x = 180 - 156
x = 24

<em><u>Complete Question:</u></em>
A colony of flowers is pollinated by hummingbirds and sunbirds. Let H represents the number of hummingbirds and S represent the number of sunbirds that must pollinate the colony so it can survive until next year.
6H+ 4S> 74
This year, 8 hummingbirds pollinated the colony. What is the least number of sun birds that must pollinate the colony to ensure that it will survive until next year?
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
The least number of sun birds is 7
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given inequality is:
6H + 4S > 74
Where,
H is the number of hummingbirds
S is the number of sunbirds
This year, 8 hummingbirds pollinated the colony
Substitute H = 8 in given inequality
6(8) + 4S > 74
48 + 4S > 74
Subtract 48 from both sides
48 + 4S - 48 > 74 - 48
4S > 26
Divide both sides by 4
S > 6.5
Hence the least number of sun birds is 7
The answer is 11! I’m not positive
