An electronics manufacturer produces 196 refrigerators in a day. According to the manufacturer’s records, three of the refrigerators produced each hour have a defect.

Which of the following functions describes the average number of non-defective refrigerators produced per hour in terms of x, the number of hours of production per day?

Respuesta :

120 refrigerators out of the 196 are not defects.

What is function?

Function is an expression, rule, or law that defines a relationship between one variable and another variable.

According to the question,

If there are 196 refrigerators produced daily,

No. of refrigerators produce in an hour ,

[tex]\frac{196}{24} = 8[/tex]

8 are produced in an hour.

As 3 of the refrigerators produced each hour have a defect.

Therefore , we subtract both the values:

[tex]8x -3x = 5x[/tex]

5 refrigerators that are not defects.

Now 1 day = 24 Hours

So, Put x =24 in the above function

[tex]5x = 5*24 =120[/tex]

Hence,  the average number of non-defective refrigerators produced per hour is 120.
