Part A: The Cougar Bakery is trying to increase productivity. To maximize efficiency it is important to determine current production levels. Last Tuesday the shop sold 45 cakes. The head baker, who arrives every morning at 5:30 AM, was able to complete the order by 8:30 AM. She was assisted by the apprentice baker who arrived at 7:00 AM. On Thursday there were orders for 102 cakes. On Thursday the apprentice was scheduled to come in at 7:00 AM. Together they were able to complete the order by noon. It should be noted that each employee did take a 30 minute lunch. To monitor efficiency we need to determine the average number of cakes that can be baked in an hour by each employee. The owner wishes to see this data algebraically. Summarize your findings about the productivity of each employee.

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

in 1995, potato plants were taken into space aboard the space shuttle columbia.

step-by-step explanation:

"standard form:

3x2 + 14x − 10 = 0

solutions based on quadratic formula:

x1   = −14 − √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 − 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ −5.296

x2   = −14 + √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 + 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ 0.629

the circumference of a circle is, 10.676 cm.

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for circumference of a circle is given by:

where

c is the circumference of a circle and

d is the diameter of a circle.

given: diameter(d) = 3.4 cm and use

substitute these values in [1] we get;

cm

therefore, the circumference of a circle is, 10.676 cm
