Three workers sort 66 boxes in a day. One of the workers is three times more productive than the second worker and twice as productive as the third worker. How many boxes did the second most productive worker sort?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 1 worker =x

2 worker = (worker1)/(2)= (x)/(3)

3 worker = (worker1)/(3)= (x)/(3)

so:

66=x+ (x)/(3)+ (x)/(2)

66=x+(2x)/(6)+ (3x)/(6)

66*6=6x+2x+3x

396=11x

x=36

so:

worker 1 sorted 36 boxes
worker 2 sorted 18 boxes
worker 3 sorted 12 boxes

How much milk is in a can 8cm by 12cm<br />

Answers

Knowing the diameter of the can is 8cm, we can figure out the radius by dividing it by 2. The radius is 4cm. To find the volume of the can, multiply pi by radius^2 by height. (3.14)*(4)*(4)*(12)=(3.14)*(16)*(12)= (3.14)*(192)= 603 cm^3.

2x + 7 = x + 3 what is X ?

Answers

2x + 7 = x + 3

First, subtract x from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 2x + 7 - x = 3
Second, simplify 2x + 7 - x to x + 7. / Your problem should look like: x + 7 = 3
Third, subtract 7 from both sides. / Your problem should look like: x = 3 - 7
Fourth, subtract 3 - 7 to get -4. / Your problem should look like: x = -4

Answer: x = -4

x = -4 

2x+7 = x+3
 - x       -x
_________
1x+7 = 3
     -7   -7
_________
      x = -4



Nick is solving the equation 3x^2=20-7x with the quadratic formula which values could He use for a, b and c

Answers

Answer:

C. a = 3

b = 7

c = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -b+/- (sq) b^2 - 4ac.

Well the way to plug the numbers in is by using this equation: Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0

S if you use your equation : 3x^2 = 20 - 7x

First you have to move everything to one side.

So it'll look like this:

3x^2 = 20 - 7x

-20      -20

3x^2 - 20 = -7x

+7x  +7x

3x^2 - 20 + 7x = 0

don't forget that... Ax^2 +Bx+ C= 0

3 = A

7 = B

-20 = C
