Answer:

4 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the rate of the machines 1/x, because every time they complete an order, it takes them x hours. To find x, we have to add the the rates of the individual machines, which would equal the rate of the machines working together. We know that there are four machines working together at the same rate, and it took them 32 hours.

So:

1/x + 1/x + 1/x + 1/x = 1/32

1/4x = 1/32

4x = 32

x = 8

Thus, the rate of the machines is 1/8.

Now we have to find the time of the order with only half of the machines working together. This time, we don't know the combined rate, so I'll substitute it for y.

1/8 + 1/8 = 1/y

1/4 = 1/y

y = 4

The time taken to complete it is 4 hours.

Angle UQR = Angle UQX since they are corresponding angles. Note how the top polygon reflects over the line QU to get the bottom polygon.

So because of this, and because angle UQX = 45, this means the answer is 45 degrees

Answer:

70° , 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles are corresponding and are congruent, then

23x + 1 = 4 + 22x ( subtract 22x from both sides )

x + 1 = 4 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

x = 3

Then the angles are

23x + 1 = 23(3) + 1 = 69 + 1 = 70°

4 + 22x = 4 + 22(3) = 4 + 66 = 70°
