In a paint factory, an old conveyer line has filled 10 barrels of paint, and is filling more at a rate of 3 barrels per minute.

A worker just switched on a newer line that can fill 4 barrels per minute. In a little while, the two lines will have filled an equal number of barrels. How many barrels will each line have filled?

Answer:

40 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = 4*10 = 40 barrels

10 + 3x = 10 + 3(10) = 40 barrels

Answer:

40 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let x = number of minutes

Old conveyor line :

Filling rate = 3 barrels per minute

Already filled = 10 barrels

Equation :

10 + 3x - - - (1)

NEW conveyor line:

Filling rate = 4 barrels per minute

Equation :

4x - - - (2)

Equate equation (1) and (2)

10 + 3x = 4x

10 = 4x - 3x

10 = x

Hence, in 10 minutes, each line will have filmed same number of barrels which is

4x = 4*10 = 40 barrels

10 + 3x = 10 + 3(10) = 40 barrels

I think the answer is 21. I’m not sure but if I remember it’s 40 + 20 = 60. 180 - 60 = 120 and then it’s a vertical angle which is equal so then it would be 120 + 39 = 159. Then 180 - 159 = 21. Sorry if this is wrong I haven’t done this in a while. Have a good day!

Find the missing values assuming continuously compounded interest. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
alexdok [17]

Answer:

<h2>$3448.81</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the compound interest formula to calculate the amount compounded after 10years.

A = P(1+r)^{nt}

P = principal  = $2000

r = rate (in %) = 5.6%

t = time (in years) = 10years

n = 1year = time used in compounding

A = 2000(1+0.056)^{10} \\A = 2000(1.056)^{10}\\A = 2000*1.7244046\\A = 3448.81 (to\  2dp)

Amount compounded after 10 years is $3448.81
