Hi there!
In order to answer your question, you’ll need to use the cross product method :

500 screws → 4 seconds
X screws → 60 seconds

(500 × 60) ÷ 4 = X screws
30,000 ÷ 4 = X screws
7,500 = X screws

Your answer is : The company can make 7,500 screws in 1 minute!

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻

Algebra II

Exponential to Logarithmic: $\displaystyle b^m=x \rightarrow log_bx=m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

0.77 = log(x)

Step 2: Solve for x

[Equality Property] Raise both sides to the 10th power: $\displaysytle 10^{0.77} = 10^{logx}$
Simplify: $\displaysytle x = 10^{0.77}$
Evaluate: $\displaysytle x = 5.88844$
