|-2x+6|=-8 absolute value equations

1 answer:

8 0

No solution.

The left side must be non-negative. (An absolute value is always 0 or positive.) The right side is negative. There can never be any point of intersection.

A product is made up of components A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J. Components A, B, C, and F have a 1/10,000 chance of failure

lesantik [10]

Answer:

The overall reliability is 99.7402 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The overall reliability of the product is calculated as the product of the working probability of the components.

For components A,B,C and F we have :

$P(failure)=\frac{1}{10000}$

⇒

$P(Work)=1-\frac{1}{10000}=\frac{9999}{10000}=0.9999$

For components D,E,G and H we have :

$P(failure)=\frac{3}{10000}$

⇒

$P(Work)=1-\frac{3}{10000}=\frac{9997}{10000}=0.9997$

Finally, for components I and J :

$P(failure)=\frac{5}{10000}$

⇒

$P(Work)=1-\frac{5}{10000}=\frac{9995}{10000}=0.9995$

Now we multiply all the working probabilities. We mustn't forget that we have got ten components in this case :

Components A,B,C and F with a working probability of 0.9999

Components D,E,G and H with a working probability of 0.9997

Components I and J with a working probability of 0.9995

Overall reliability = $(0.9999)^{4}(0.9997)^{4}(0.9995)^{2}=0.997402$

0.997402 = 99.7402 %

In 4 hours, an experienced cook prepares enough pies to supply a local restaurant's daily order. Another cook prepares the sam

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

$9\frac{1}{3}hours$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let third cook take x hours to prepare the same number of pies y alone

Let y be the number of pies

In 1 hour ,third cook prepare pies= $\frac{y}{x}$

One experienced cook takes time to prepare enough pies =4 hours

In 1 hour , cook prepare pies= $\frac{y}{4}$

Another cook takes time to prepare same number of pies =7 hours

In 1 hour , another cook prepare pies= $\frac{y}{7}$

All three cooks take time to prepare the same number of pies=2 hours

In 1 hour,all three cooks prepare pies= $\frac{y}{2}$

According to question

$\frac{y}{4}+\frac{y}{7}+\frac{y}{x}=\frac{y}{2}$

$y(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{x})=\frac{y}{2}$

$\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{7}$

$\frac{1}{x}=\frac{14-7-4}{28}=\frac{3}{28}$

$x=\frac{28}{3}=9\frac{1}{3}$ hours

Hence, the third cook takes time to prepare the same number of pies alone= $9\frac{1}{3}hours$

One pattern believe fabric sells for $15 for every 2 yards, and another sells for 37.50 every 5 yards do these fabrics have the

Elenna [48]

We need to find out how much is worth one yard in both fabrics, so we divide $15.00 by 2 and $37.50 by 5:

$15.00 ÷ 2 = $7.50 per yard
$37.50 ÷ 5 = $7.50 per yard

As both prices per yard are the same, the answer is: <span>Yes, these fabrics have the same unit cost.</span>
