The number of minutes it will take 5 machines to make 15 widgets is 90 minutes

Given that :

The time taken to make a widget is directly proportional to the number of widgets made and inversely proportional to the number of machines utilized.

Using the variation protocol defined :

Let :

n = number of widgets made

n = number of widgets made m = number of machines used

n = number of widgets made m = number of machines used t = time taken

Hence, from joint variation :

t α n α 1/m

t = kn/m

Where k = constant of proportionality :

Solving for k

When t = 10, n = 5, m = 15

10 = (k × 5) / 15

15 × 10 = 5k

150 = 5k

k = 150 / 5

k = 30

Equation becomes :

t = 30n/m

Solve for t ;

When m = 5 ; n = 15

t = (30 × 15) / 5

5t = 450

t = 450 / 5

t = 90

Hence, it will take 90 minutes.

I need the measure of angle 6
NISA [10]

Answer:

125°

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 24 is equal to 1.

6 is equal to 4x + 1

1 and 4x + 1 = 180°

x + 24 + 4x + 1 = 180

4x + x + 24 + 1 = 180

5x + 25 = 180

5x = 180 - 25

5x = 155

5x/5 = 155/5

x = 31

(angle) 6 = 4x + 1

(angle) 6 = 4(31) + 1

(angle) 6 = 124 + 1

(angle) 6 = 125°

Answer:

(3x-1) + (3x-1) + (2x+1) = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  3x + 3x + 2x = 8x

2.  -1 + -1 + 1 = -1

3. 8x -1 = 55

4.  8x = 55 + 1

5.  8x = 56/8

6.    x = 7
