Question

Explain how to find n, the number of copies the machine can print in one minute. I need an algebraic expression for the answer.

Once the first part is done, I need help with this question.

Working at the same rate, how long will it take the machine to print 5,200 copies? Explain how you found your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

It prints 65 copies in 1  minute.

It takes 80 minutes to print 5200 copies.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 5 minutes the machine prints 325 copies and it can print at that steady state.

We have to find the number of copies it prints in  1 minute.

So ,number of copies in 1 minute = $\frac{number of copies in 5 minute}{5}$

                                          = $\frac{325}{5}$

                                           = 65

Hence it prints 65 copies in 1  minute.

The time taken to print 5200 copies = $time to make 1 copy \times 5200$

                                            = $\frac{1}{65} \times 5200$

                                             = 80 minutes
