A manufacturing company has an old machine which produces 25 components per hour. The company has recently installed a new machi

ne which produces 35 components per hour. Yesterday, both machines were in operation for different periods of time. If 430 components were produced when the total number of hours of operation was 14 hours, determine for how many hours each machine was in operation

Answer: old machine 150, new machine 280

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

Old machine = 25t

New machine = 35t

where t = hrs

we dont know the time for old machine so we assume it to be ( t ),

while that of the new machine is ( 14-t ) hours for new machine, and sum of 430 components.

therefore;

25t +490 - 35t = 430

-10t = -60

divide both sides by -10

t = 6 hours for the first machine.

6hrs * 25 components /hr

= 150 component parts For old machine.

for new machine

= 14 - t ........... eq1.

where ( t = 6 ), substitute t into the equation

= 14 - 6

= 8 hours for the second machine

= 8 * 35

= 280 components parts

Geometry: Line QS bisects angle PQR. Solve for x and find the measure of angle PQR.
Kazeer [188]

It is given in the question that,

Line QS bisects angle PQR. Solve for x and find the measure of angle PQR.

And

m \angle PQS = 2x+1
\\
m \angle RQS = 4x-15

Since QS bisects angle PQR, therefore

m \angle PQS = m \angle RQS

Substituting the values, we will get

2x+1=4x-15
\\
1+15 = 4x-2x
\\
2x = 16
\\
x = 8

Describe in words the surface whose equation is given. (assume that r is not negative.) θ = π/4
Delvig [45]
An equation in the form \theta=\dfrac{\pi}{4} is the line 
that goes through the origins and whose tangent equates \dfrac{\pi}{4}. In general, any equation in the form \theta=\theta_0
is the equation of a line.

the length of the rectangle is measured as 370mm correct to 2 significant figures.a) what is the upper bound for the length?the
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

a) 375

b) 7062.75 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

b) We need to find the shortest possible width and length to get the smallest possible area.

To get the boundaries for 19.4, we go on to the next significant figure (the hundredths) and ± 5 of them.

The boundaries are, therefore: 19.35 - 19.45

As for the length, we can see they've added 5 units as the measurement is correct to 2 sig' figures, which is the tens.

And so, if we do as we did before, we go to the next sig' figure (the units) and ± 5 of them, we get the boundaries to be 365 - 375.

Now, we just multiply the lower bounds of the length and width to get the minimal/lower-bound area:

365 * 19.35 = 7062.75 mm²
