Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x - 8) = 24

2x - 16 = 24

Bringing like terms on one side

2x = 24 + 16

2x = 40

x = 40/ 2

x = 20

Suppose it takes 45 hours for robot A to construct a new robot. Working together with robot B, it takes 25 hours for both robots
Len [333]

Answer:

56 hours 25 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Suppose it takes 45 hours for robot A to construct a new robot

It takes 25 hours for both robots to construct a new robot.

Question asked:

How long would it take robot B to construct a new robot, working alone ?

Solution:

Let the time taken by robot B to construct new robot = x

<u>By robot A</u>

It takes 45 hours to construct = 1 new robot

It takes 1 hour to construct = \frac{1}{45} \ new\ robot

<u>By robot B</u>

It takes x hours to construct = 1 new robot

It takes 1 hour to construct = \frac{1}{x} new robot

<u>By working together</u>

It takes 25 hours to construct = 1 new robot

It takes 1 hour to construct = \frac{1}{25} \ new\ robot

\frac{1}{25} new robot is constructed in = 1 hour

<u><em>New robot is constructed by both working together in 1 hour = New robot is constructed by robot A in 1 hour + New robot is constructed by robot B in 1 hour </em></u>

\frac{1}{25} =\frac{1}{45} +\frac{1}{x} \\

Subtracting both sides by \frac{1}{45}

\frac{1}{25}-\frac{1}{45} =\frac{1}{45} -\frac{1}{45}+\frac{1}{x} \\\\\frac{1}{25}-\frac{1}{45} =\frac{1}{x}\\\\ Taking\ LCM \ of \ 25\ and\ 45,\ we\ got\ 225

\frac{9-5}{225} =\frac{1}{x} \\ \\ \frac{4}{225} =\frac{1}{x}\\\\ By\ cross \ multiplication\\4\times x=225\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 4\\x=56.25\ hours

Thus, robot B would take 56 hours 25 minutes to construct a new robot, working alone.

You are skiing down a mountain with a vertical height of 800 feet. The distance from the top of the mountain to the base is 1600
adoni [48]

Answer:

θ  = 30^{0}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the vertical height of the mountain is 800 feet, and the distance from the top to its base is 1600 feet. Let the angle of elevation be represented by θ, applying the required trigonometric function;

Sin θ = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Sin θ = \frac{800}{1600}

        = 0.5

θ = Sin^{-1} 0.5

θ  = 30^{0}

Thus, the angle of elevation from the base to the top of the mountain is 30^{0}.

Hey guys, I'm relearning some Algebra and was confused about this problem. In the equation, the problem was divided by 3. This m
spayn [35]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The signs didn't really "swap". Instead, the whole function was divided by -1, or we could say the function was divided by -3. That would turn:

-18x² - 15x + 3 = 0

into

(-18 / -3)x² - (15 / -3)x + (3 / -3) = 0

6x² + 5x - 1 = 0

And that gives the "swapped signs".
