Answer: 4.85%

Step-by-step explanation: productivity = parcel delivered / number of drivers.

At when parcel delivered was 103, 000 the average number of drivers was 84 thus making the productivity to be

103,000/ 84 = 1226.19

At when the parcel delivered was 112, 800 the average number of drivers was 96 thus making the productivity to be

112, 000/ 96 = 1166.67

Thus the change in productivity = 1226.19 - 1166.67 = 59.52.

Initial productivity = 1226.19

final productivity = 1166.67

% change in productivity = change in productivity / initial productivity * 100

% change in productivity = 59.52 /1226 * 100

% change in productivity = 4.85%

if BD is perpendicular to AC M angle DBE equals 2x - 1 + m angle CBE equals 5x - 42 find the value of x​
Paha777 [63]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

I've drawn a graph in order to a better understanding of this problem. We know that:

BC is perpendicular to AC

∠DBE = 2x - 1

∠CBE = 5x - 42

Let's call the intersection of line BC and AC the point P, so:

∠P=90°

And points B, P and C form the triangle ΔBPC. On the other hand, ∠CBE and ∠PCB are Alternate Interior Angles, so:

∠PCB = ∠CBE = 5x - 42

Moreover:

∠PBC = 2x - 1 - (5x - 42)

∠PBC = 2x - 1 - 5x + 42

∠PBC = -3x + 41

The internal angles of any triangle add up to 180°. Hence for ΔBPC:

90° + ∠PBC + ∠PCB  = 180°

90° - 3x + 41  + 5x - 42  = 180°

2x + 89 = 180

2x = 91

x = 45.5°

A 15-inch candle is lit and steadily burns until it is burned out. Let b represent the burned length of the candle (in inches) a
hjlf

Answer:

(a)r=15-b

11.9 Inches

(b)See attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the candle =15 inch

Let b represent the burned length of the candle (in inches)

Let r represent the remaining length of the candle (in inches).

Therefore:

(a) r+b=15

r=15-b

When b=3,1 Inches

Remaining Length, r=15-3.1=11.9 Inches

(b)The graph showing te relationship between r and b is shown below.

r is plotted on the y-axis while b is plotted on the x-axis as labelled.
