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

ivann1987 [24]
Since the range of the scores given was between 300 and 700 (which is 2 standard deviations below and above the mean), the probability that a randomly selected student's math score - as based on the empirical rule of statistics - is 95%. In decimal form, it is .95.

If 36 is is the dividend and 4 is the divisor then what is the quotient
max2010maxim [7]
Given:
36 is the dividend
4 is the divisor
Since, 4 is the divisor, you are going to want to see how many times 4 can fit into 36 evenly:
4*1=4, 4*2=8, 4*3=12, 4*4=16, 4*5=20, 4*6=24, 4*7=28, 4*9= 36
As you can see above, 4 goes into 36, 9 times evenly:
36/4 = 9
Quotient: 9

I hope this helps!

5. When looking at a map, a student realizes that Birmingham is nearly due west of Atlanta, and Nashville is nearly due north of
leonid [27]

Answer: 250 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can think in a triangle rectangle:

The distance from Birmingham to Atlanta is roughly 150 mi, and this is one of the cathetus.

And the distance from Birmingham to Nashville is roughly 200 mi, this is the other cathetus of the triangle.

Now, the distance from Atlanta to Nashville will be the hypotenuse of this triangle rectangle.

Now we can apply the Pythagorean's theorem:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

Where A and B are the cathetus, and H is the hypotenuse:

Then:

H = √(A^2 + B^2)

H = √(150^2 + 200^2) mi = √(62,500) mi = 250 mi

Then the estimated distance from Atlanta to Nashville is 250 mi
