answer

Answer 1

Answer:

t = 3.46 hours, or 3 hours 28 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

78 dozen donuts in 2 hours immediately reduces to 39 dozen/hour.

Donuts produced as a function of time:   D(t), where t is the number of hours the macine runs.

Set D(t) = 135 dozen = (39 dozen/hr)t.

Solving this equation for t, we get:

t = 135/39 hours, or t = 3.46 hours, or 3 hours 28 minutes
