Answer:
Time machine one = 3.56
Time machine two = 4.56
Step-by-step explanation:
Let machine 2 do the job in x hours
Let machine 1 do the job in x - 1 hours.
The general formula for this problem is
Time = A*B/(A + B)
Givens
Time = 2 hours
B = x hours alone
A = x - 1 hours alone.
#################
x *( x - 1)
======= = 2
(x + x - 1)
(x^2 - x)/(2x - 1) = 2
x^2 - x = 2(2x - 1)
x^2 - x = 4x - 2
x^2 - 5x + 2 = 0
a = 1
b = - 5
c = 2
This gives 2 roots
x = 4.56
x = 0.43
The second root will not work because when 1 is subtracted from 0.43 the time give will be minus, which won't work.
Time for machine 2 is 4.56
The time for machine 1 is 3.56
Check
(A * B)/(A + B) = 2
A = 4.56
B = 3.56
Time = 4.56*3.56/(4.56 + 3.56)
Time = 16.2336/(8.12)
Time = 1.9992
The rounding error in the check comes from the rounding error in the times.
Answer:
D: {9, 21, 33}
Step-by-step explanation:
Ken worked 2, 8 and 14 hours on 3 separate days.
For working 2 hours, his earnings were f(2) = 2(2) + 5, or 9;
For working 8 hours, his earnings were f(28) = 2(8) + 5, or 21; and
For working 14 hours, his earnings were f(14) = 2(14) + 5, or 33
Thus, the range of this function for the days given is {9, 21, 33} (Answer D)
Answer:
Roughly 70.29 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation:
(2x+27)+(2x-11)+3x = 180
7x + 16 = 180
7x = 164
x ~ 23.43
Angle C:
3x
3(23.43)
70.29
Answer:
$31728
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry if I'm wrong
Your answer will be B) x=12
1)5x-3x
2) move 9 to the other side (change signs)
3)18+15-9
4) 2x= 24 (divide 2 from both sides
5)x=12
hope this helps
