A machine in a factory has an error rate of 2 parts per 100. The machine normally runs 24 hours a day and produces 6 parts per hour. Yesterday the machine was shut down for 4 hours for maintenance.
How many error-free parts did the machine produce yesterday?
| 120.1 | |
| 117.6 | |
| 106.7 | |
| 200.2 |
The hourly error rate for this machine is the error rate in parts per 100 multiplied by the number of parts produced per hour:
\( \frac{2}{100} \) x 6 = \( \frac{2 \times 6}{100} \) = \( \frac{12}{100} \) = 0.12 errors per hour
So, in an average hour, the machine will produce 6 - 0.12 = 5.88 error free parts.
The machine ran for 24 - 4 = 20 hours yesterday so you would expect that 20 x 5.88 = 117.6 error free parts were produced yesterday.
What is \( \sqrt{\frac{36}{64}} \)?
| 1\(\frac{4}{5}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 2 | |
| \(\frac{3}{4}\) |
To take the square root of a fraction, break the fraction into two separate roots then calculate the square root of the numerator and denominator separately:
\( \sqrt{\frac{36}{64}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{36}}{\sqrt{64}} \)
\( \frac{\sqrt{6^2}}{\sqrt{8^2}} \)
\(\frac{3}{4}\)
What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 8 hours at an average speed of 30 miles per hour?
| 180 miles | |
| 140 miles | |
| 75 miles | |
| 240 miles |
Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:
speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)Solving for distance:
distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 30mph \times 8h \)
240 miles
What is \( 8 \)\( \sqrt{175} \) - \( 7 \)\( \sqrt{7} \)
| 33\( \sqrt{7} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{1225} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{24} \) | |
| 56\( \sqrt{7} \) |
To subtract these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
8\( \sqrt{175} \) - 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
8\( \sqrt{25 \times 7} \) - 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
8\( \sqrt{5^2 \times 7} \) - 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
(8)(5)\( \sqrt{7} \) - 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
40\( \sqrt{7} \) - 7\( \sqrt{7} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can subtract them:
40\( \sqrt{7} \) - 7\( \sqrt{7} \)The __________ is the greatest factor that divides two integers.
