Just divide the number of parts made by the number of hours to get parts per hour. 15 minutes is 1/4 of an hour, so we divide 360 by 0.25 hours:
Answer:
-6, 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
A) 40
B) length = 4.275 km; not quite true. See below for explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Your calculator can tell you the ratio ...
(national pennies)/(local pennies) = (8×10⁶)/(2×10⁵)
= (8/2)×10⁶⁻⁵ = 4×10¹ = 40
The national drive collected 40 times as many pennies as the Valley Stream Central goal.

B) Multiplying the number of pennies by the diameter of each will tell the length of the line of pennies. That length can be compared to the 5 km distance to determine if the reporter's statement is true. (It is <em>not</em> true.)
length of string = (length of penny) × (number of pennies)
= (19×10⁻⁶ km) × (2.25×10⁵) = 42.75×10⁻¹ km = 4.275 km
The length of the pennies laid side-to-side is less than 5.0 km. The reporter's statement is not true.

All scientific and graphing calculators and many 4-function calculators will let you enter numbers in scientific notation.
Let the number of type A surfboards to be ordered be x and the number of type B surfboards be y, then we have
Minimize: C = 272x + 136y
subject to: 29x + 17y ≥ 1210
x + y ≤ 50
x, y ≥ 1
From the graph of the constraints, we have that the corner points are:
(20, 30), (41.138, 1) and (49, 1)
Applying the corner poits to the objective function, we have
For (20, 30): C = 272(20) + 136(30) = 5440 + 4080 = $9,520
For (41.138, 1): C = 272(41.138) + 136 = 11189.54 + 136 = $11,325.54
For (49, 1): C = 272(49) + 136 = 13328 + 136 = $13,464
Therefore, for minimum cost, 20 type A surfboards and 30 type B surfboards should be ordered.
