concepts and skills Let the group cite one real situation that demonstrates has a huge order of
in daily living the concept rational algebraic expressions. mask due to pandemic
Support your answer. and Mr. Juan wants the
tags to be made as soon
as possible. He has
Solution. asked the tag maker to
Let x= the number of hours for tag maker 2 to run an extra machine to
complete the job. get the tag making done
Enter the hours per job for tag maker 1, tag maker 2, more quickly. The tag
and when they work together. maker number 1 takes
no of hours needed part of job 12 hours more than tag
to complete the job completed maker number 2 to do
per hour the job and when both
tag maker 1 x + 12 (1 / x)+12 tag making machine are
tag maker 2 x 1/x running they can do the
together 8 1/8 job in 8 hours. How long
work completed by tag maker 1 + tag maker 2 = does it take for each tag
working together maker to make the job
(1/x+12) + 1/x = 1/8 ---------------->> is the rational alone?
expression
8x(x+12) (1/x+12) +1/x) = (1/8) 8x(x+12)
8x+8(x+12) = x(x+12)
8x+8x+96=x^2+12x
x^2-4x+96=0 --------------------->> is the quadratic
equation formed
(x-12)(x+8) = 0
x-12 = 0 ; x+8=0
x=12 ; x = -8
-8 cannot be applied due to a negative value so we
used x=12
no of hours needed to complete the job for tag maker
1
substitute from x+12
12+12 = 24 hours
no of hours needed to complete the job for tag maker
2
substitute from x
x=12 hours
therefore, tag maker 1 would take 24 hours and tag
maker 2 would take 12 hours to do the job alone.
