Respuesta :

Answer:

Option C: 126

Step-by-step explanation:

Total displays to be assembled = 280

25% of the displays are assembled during the first hour, this value becomes:

[tex]0.25\times280=70[/tex]

Remaining displays = [tex]280-70=210[/tex]

40% of the remaining displays during the second hour, the value becomes:

[tex]0.40\times210=84[/tex]

Hence, number of displays that will not have been assembled by the end of the second hour = [tex]210-84=126[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is 126.
