It takes a company 4 hours to build 1,300 cell phones. If the company continues working at the same rate, how many hours will it take them to build 30,000 cell phones?
I need help with these two multistep equation word problems. please show work for them:
1. the measure of an angle is 34 degress less than its supplement. Find the measure of each angle.
2. The measure of an angle is 9 degress more than twice its complement. Find the measure of each angle.
T=30,000phones * 4h/1300phones=92.3 h.
1. A = X Degrees, B = (X-34) Degrees.
Supplementary angles are angles whose sum is 180o:
x + (x-34) = 180.
X = ?.
X-34 = ?
2. A = X Degrees, B = (2x+9) Degrees.
x + (2x+9) = 90o.
X = ?
2x+9 = ?
To find out how many hours it will take the company to build 30,000 cell phones, we need to calculate the rate of cell phone production per hour.
We know that it takes the company 4 hours to build 1,300 cell phones. So, to find the rate at which the company produces cell phones per hour, we can divide the total number of cell phones by the number of hours it takes to produce them.
The rate of cell phone production per hour can be calculated as follows:
Rate = Number of cell phones / Number of hours
Rate = 1,300 cell phones / 4 hours
Rate = 325 cell phones per hour
Now that we know the company produces 325 cell phones per hour, we can calculate how many hours it will take to build 30,000 cell phones. We can use the following formula:
Time = Number of cell phones / Rate
Time = 30,000 cell phones / 325 cell phones per hour
Time = 92.3077 hours
Therefore, it will take the company approximately 92.3077 hours to build 30,000 cell phones. Since the number of hours cannot be fractional, we can round it up to the nearest whole number. Hence, it will take approximately 93 hours for the company to build 30,000 cell phones.
