Answer: The function formula is,

P(t) = 480 - 48 t

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, initial number of pages = 480,

After 1.5 hours, the number of pages = 402,

Hence, the pages read by him in 1.5 hours = 480-402=72,

⇒ His constant speed of reading = \frac{72}{1.5} = 48,

⇒ The pages he read in t hours = 48 t

Since, The pages left to read in t hours = Initial pages - The pages he read in t hours,

⇒ P(t) = 480 - 48 t

Which is the required function.

An electronics store received two shipments of radios. Of the 250 radios in the first shipment, exactly 6% were damaged. In the
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Total number of not damaged = 451

C. 451

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first shipment, 6% of the 250 radios where damaged.

Number of damaged= 6/100 * 250

Number of damaged= 6*2.5

Number of damaged= 15 radios.

Number of not damaged= 250-15

Number of not damaged = 235 radios

In the second shipment, 4% of the radios were damaged

Let the number of second shipment= y

0.04 of y where damaged

Total number of radio damaged= 24

15 + 0.04y = 24

0.04y= 24-15

0.04y = 9

Y= 9/0.04

Y= 225

Number of radio in the second shipment= 225

Number of damaged in the second shipment= 0.04*225

Number of damaged in the second shipment= 9

Number of not damaged in the second shipment= 225-9

Number of damaged in the second shipment= 216

Total number of not damaged

= 235+216

= 451

Total number of not damaged= 451
