Mathematics
1 answer:
Marizza181 [45]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

s ≈ - 0.5 , s ≈ 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

s² - 8s - 4 = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )

s² - 8s = 4

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the s- term )² to both sides

s² + 2(- 4)s + 16 = 4 + 16

(s - 4)² = 20 ( take square root of both sides )

s - 4 = ± \sqrt{20} ( add 4 to both sides )

s = 4 ± \sqrt{20}

Then

s = 4 - \sqrt{20} ≈ - 0.5 ( to the nearest tenth ) ← smaller solution

s = 4 + \sqrt{20} ≈ 8.5 ( to the nearest tenth ) ← larger solution

sineoko [7]

The company needs 41 labels on average, each minute.

<h3>What is the circumference of a circle?</h3>

The perimeter of a circle (circumference): 2 π radius

Replacing with the values given:

C = 2 (3.14) 2 = 12.56 cm

So, the area of one label is:

Area of a rectangle: length x width = 12.56 x 7 = 87.92 cm sq.

Now, the number of label be n

87.92 x n = 3612.64 cm2

n = 3612.64 / 87.92

n = 41.09

Hence, The company needs 41 labels on average, each minute.
