Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 42

Cevap

The correct answer is 42 hours.

To solve this problem, both machine rates must first be converted to the same time unit (hours). Machine A operates at

60

rivets per hour (

240 \div 4

). Machine B operates at

90

rivets per hour (since there are three

20

-minute periods in an hour,

30 \times 3 = 90

). Together, they install

150

rivets per hour (

60 + 90

). Dividing the total requirement of

6,300

rivets by the combined rate of

150

rivets per hour yields exactly

42

hours.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the unit rate for Machine A in rivets per hour.

240 \text{ rivets} \div 4 \text{ hours} = 60 \text{ rivets per hour}

To combine the rates of both machines, they must be in the same unit of measure (rivets per hour).

2

Calculate the unit rate for Machine B in rivets per hour.

30 \text{ rivets} \div 20 \text{ minutes} = 1.5 \text{ rivets per minute}

.

1.5 \times 60 = 90 \text{ rivets per hour}

Machine B's rate is given per

20

minutes, so it must be scaled up to an hourly rate by multiplying by

60

minutes.

3

Calculate the combined hourly rate of both machines.

60 + 90 = 150 \text{ rivets per hour}

The machines operate simultaneously, so their individual hourly rates are added together.

4

Determine the total time required to install

6,300

rivets.

6,300 \text{ rivets} \div 150 \text{ rivets per hour} = 42 \text{ hours}

Dividing the total work required by the combined hourly rate gives the total time needed.

To determine how many vehicles can be serviced, the total amount of fluid (

26 \frac{2}{3}

gallons) must be divided by the amount required per vehicle (

1 \frac{1}{3}

gallons). First, convert both amounts to improper fractions:

\frac{80}{3} \div \frac{4}{3}

. Next, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction:

\frac{80}{3} \times \frac{3}{4}

A small business owner finances the purchase of new office equipment with a $\$3,000$ loan from a local credit union. The loan term is $18$ months. At the end of the term, the owner repays a total of $\$3,360$ , which includes the original loan amount and all accumulated simple interest.

What is the annual simple interest rate (as a percentage) applied to this loan?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 8

Cevap

8

The correct annual simple interest rate is 8%. First, determine the total interest by subtracting the principal from the total repayment (

\$3,360 - \$3,000 = \$360

). Next, convert the 18-month term to years (

18 \div 12 = 1.5 \text{ years}

). Using the simple interest formula

I = PRT

, substitute the values:

360 = 3,000 \times R \times 1.5

. Simplifying this gives

360 = 4,500R

, which means

R = 360 \div 4,500 = 0.08

. Finally, convert

0.08

to a percentage to get

8\%

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the total simple interest earned over the loan term.

Total Interest (I) =

\$3,360 - \$3,000 = \$360

The total repayment amount (A) is the sum of the principal (P) and the interest (I). Therefore, subtracting the principal from the total repayment isolates the interest.

2

Convert the loan duration from months to years.

Time (T) =

18 \text{ months} = 1.5 \text{ years}

The standard simple interest formula

I = PRT

requires time (T) to be expressed in years when calculating an annual interest rate.

3

Apply the simple interest formula and solve for the annual rate (R).

360 = 3000 \times R \times 1.5

360 = 4500 \times R

R = 0.08

Substituting the known values (I, P, T) allows us to isolate and solve for the missing rate variable (R).

\frac{4}{7} \times \frac{525}{4} = \frac{525}{7} = 75

pounds

This calculation yields the exact weight of the ground beef available to be portioned into storage bags. Notice that the 4 in the numerator and denominator cancel out.

4

Convert the storage bag capacity from a mixed number to an improper fraction.

3 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{15}{4}

This prepares the divisor for the fraction division step.

5

Divide the remaining weight by the capacity of each storage bag.

75 \div \frac{15}{4} = 75 \times \frac{4}{15} = \frac{300}{15} = 20

bags

Dividing the total available weight by the weight per bag yields the exact number of bags that can be completely filled.

In an industrial facility, three identical light fixtures are connected in parallel across a constant $120\text{ V}$ electrical line. If one of the light fixtures burns out and creates an open circuit in its branch, what will happen to the remaining light fixtures and the total current drawn from the line?

All remaining fixtures go out immediately, and the total current drawn from the line drops to zero.

The remaining fixtures stay lit at the same brightness, and the total current drawn from the line decreases.

The remaining fixtures glow noticeably brighter, and the total current drawn from the line increases.

The remaining fixtures become dimmer, while the total current drawn from the line remains unchanged.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The remaining fixtures stay lit at the same brightness, and the total current drawn from the line decreases.

Cevap

The remaining fixtures stay lit at the same brightness, and the total current drawn from the line decreases.

In a parallel circuit, each device is connected across the full source voltage independently. When one fixture burns out, the voltage across the remaining fixtures remains at

120\text{ V}

, so their current and brightness stay the same. However, because the total current is the sum of the branch currents (

I_{\text{total}} = I_1 + I_2 + I_3

), losing one branch reduces the total current supplied by the line from three branch currents down to two.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Analyze voltage across individual branches in a parallel circuit

Each remaining fixture continues to experience the full

120\text{ V}

line voltage.

In a parallel circuit, every branch is connected directly across the power source, so removing or opening one branch does not alter the voltage applied to the others.

2

Determine current and power dissipation for each remaining fixture

Individual current

I = \frac{V}{R}

and power

P = \frac{V^2}{R}

remain constant, keeping brightness unchanged.

Since both the resistance of each remaining fixture and the supply voltage remain unchanged, the power output of each active lamp does not change.

3

Calculate the effect on total circuit current

Total current drops from

I_{\text{total}} = 3I_{\text{branch}}

to

I_{\text{total}} = 2I_{\text{branch}}

.

Total current in a parallel circuit is the sum of the individual branch currents (

I_{\text{total}} = I_1 + I_2 + I_3

). When one branch opens, its current drops to zero, reducing the total current drawn from the supply.

A supply sergeant initially distributes $2,400$ rounds of specialized training ammunition among three firing squads—Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie—in a ratio of $2:3:5$ , respectively. During the drill, Squad Bravo requests and is issued exactly $180$ additional rounds.

To maintain the exact original $2:3:5$ distribution ratio among the three squads, the sergeant must also issue additional rounds to Alpha and Charlie. How many total additional rounds must be issued to Squads Alpha and Charlie combined to perfectly restore the original ratio?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 420

Cevap

420

By determining that Bravo's 180 additional rounds correspond to its 3 parts in the ratio, we can establish that the proportional increase per part is 60 rounds (180 ÷ 3). Since Alpha and Charlie make up 7 parts combined (2 + 5), they require an additional 7 × 60 = 420 rounds to maintain the ratio.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the initial number of rounds representing a single ratio part.

240 rounds per part.

The total of 2,400 rounds is distributed across 2 + 3 + 5 = 10 total parts.

2

Determine Squad Bravo's new total amount of ammunition.

900 rounds.

Bravo initially had 3 parts (3 × 240 = 720). Adding the 180 new rounds brings their total to 720 + 180 = 900 rounds.

3

Calculate the new value of a single ratio part required to maintain the 2:3:5 distribution.

300 rounds per part.

Bravo's new total of 900 rounds must represent its 3 parts in the ratio. Therefore, 900 ÷ 3 = 300.

4

Calculate the total additional rounds needed for Alpha and Charlie combined.

420 rounds.

The proportional increase per ratio part is 300 - 240 = 60 rounds. Alpha and Charlie represent 2 + 5 = 7 parts combined. 7 parts × 60 rounds = 420 rounds.

Anahtar Kavram

Dividing quantities based on a given ratio and recalculating proportional parts after a specific adjustment.

Alternatif Yöntem

Instead of calculating the initial and final totals for each squad, analyze the proportional change directly. Squad Bravo's allocation increases by 180 rounds. Since Bravo represents 3 parts of the ratio, the increase is 180 ÷ 3 = 60 rounds per ratio part. Squads Alpha and Charlie account for 2 + 5 = 7 ratio parts combined. Therefore, their combined additional requirement is simply 7 parts × 60 rounds/part = 420 rounds.

A platoon leader is organizing a holiday banquet for their unit at a local restaurant. The initial food and beverage total is $\$400.00$ . The restaurant offers a $15\%$ military discount on this total. A $5\%$ local sales tax and a $20\%$ gratuity (tip) are then applied. If both the tax and the gratuity are calculated based on the discounted total, what is the final overall cost of the banquet?

\$440.00

\$425.00

\$481.25

\$428.40

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\$425.00$

Cevap

The final overall cost of the banquet is

\$425.00

.

The correct answer accurately determines the discount (

60), subtracts it to find the new subtotal (

340), calculates the tax (

17) and tip (

68) based on that new subtotal, and adds everything together (

340 +

17 +

68) to reach the total of

425.00.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the dollar amount of the military discount.

15\%

of

\$400.00 = 0.15 \times \$400.00 = \$60.00

The discount must be determined before calculating the new taxable subtotal.

2

Subtract the discount from the initial total to find the discounted subtotal.

\$400.00 - \$60.00 = \$340.00

This establishes the new base amount on which the tax and gratuity will be calculated.

3

Calculate the sales tax on the discounted subtotal.

5\%

of

\$340.00 = 0.05 \times \$340.00 = \$17.00

The problem states the

5\%

tax is applied to the discounted total.

4

Calculate the gratuity (tip) on the discounted subtotal.

20\%

of

\$340.00 = 0.20 \times \$340.00 = \$68.00

The problem specifies the gratuity is also calculated based on the discounted total.

5

Add the discounted subtotal, tax, and gratuity to find the final cost.

\$340.00 + \$17.00 + \$68.00 = \$425.00

Summing the adjusted base cost with all applicable fees gives the total amount due.

In the analysis of direct-current electrical circuits, fundamental physical quantities define how electrical energy is stored, transported, and dissipated. Match each electrical quantity on the left with its correct physical definition on the right.

Soldaki öğeye tıklayın, sonra eşleşen sağdaki öğeye tıklayın

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

Electric Current matches 'The rate at which electric charge flows through a cross-sectional area of a conductor over time'; Voltage (Electric Potential Difference) matches 'The amount of electric potential energy delivered or work done per unit of electric charge'; Electrical Resistance matches 'The measure of a material's opposition to the passage of electric charge'; Electrical Power matches 'The rate at which electrical energy is transferred, converted, or dissipated per unit of time'.

Each term corresponds directly to its foundational physical definition in electromagnetism: Electric Current is the rate of charge flow (

I = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t}

), Voltage is the work/energy per unit charge (

V = \frac{W}{Q}

), Resistance is the opposition to charge movement (

R = \frac{V}{I}

), and Electrical Power is the time rate of total energy transfer (

P = VI

).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the physical definition of Electric Current.

Electric current is the flow of electric charge per unit time (

I = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta t}

), which matches 'The rate at which electric charge flows through a cross-sectional area of a conductor over time'.

Current measures how many coulombs of charge pass through a point each second.

2

Determine the physical definition of Voltage (Electric Potential Difference).

Voltage is the potential energy difference per unit charge (

V = \frac{W}{Q}

), which matches 'The amount of electric potential energy delivered or work done per unit of electric charge'.

Voltage represents the electrical 'push' or work done to move a unit charge between two points.

3

Determine the physical definition of Electrical Resistance.

Resistance describes the opposition encountered by flowing charge (

R = \frac{V}{I}

), which matches 'The measure of a material's opposition to the passage of electric charge'.

Resistance impedes electric current and creates a potential drop across a circuit component.

4

Determine the physical definition of Electrical Power.

Electrical power is the rate of energy transformation or consumption (

P = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t} = VI

), which matches 'The rate at which electrical energy is transferred, converted, or dissipated per unit of time'.

Power quantifies how rapidly electrical potential energy is converted into thermal energy, light, or mechanical work.
