After raining for 3/4 of an hour, a rain gauge is 2/5 filled. If it continues to rain at that rate for 15 more minutes, what fraction of the rain gauge will be filled?

To help answer this question, Diego wrote the division equation 3/4 ÷ 2/5 = ?. Explain why this equation does not represent the situation.

Answers

Answer 1

Number of minutes in 3/4 of an hour is :

n = 3/4 × 60 = 45 minutes.

Now, If it continues to rain at that rate for 15 more minutes :

So, time taken = 45 + 15 min = 1 hour.

Let, rain gauge is filled x fraction in 1 hour.

So,

[tex]\dfrac{3}{4}x = \dfrac{2}{5}\times 1\\\\x = \dfrac{8}{15}[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

A submarine starts at the surface of the water and then travels 95 meters below sea level in 19 seconds. If the submarine traveled an equal distance each second, what integer gives the distance traveled each second? a. –1805 c. –5 b. 1805 d. 5

Answers

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total distance traveled from surface of water = 95 meters

Total travel time = 19 seconds

If equal distance Is traveled per second :

Distance traveled per second :

Total distance covered / total time taken

95 meters / 19 seconds

= 4.842 meters / second

Since it travels below sea level ( negative).

Hence distance traveled per second to the nearest integer = - 5 m/s

A grill at a barbeque restaurant will be used to cook chicken logs that are 1.25 pounds each and racks of ribs that
are 7 pounds each. No more than 110 pounds of chicken legs and racks of ribs will be cooked on the grill. Which
inequality represents all possible combinations of x, the number of chicken legs that will be cooked on the grill,
and y, the number of racks of ribs that will also be cooked?
A) 1.25x + 7y s 110
B) 1.25x + 7y > 110
C) 7x +1.25y< 110
D) 7x + 1.25y > 110

Answers

Answer:

A. [tex] 1.25x + 7y \le 110 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

No more than 110 lb total will be grilled. That means that the amount of meat that will be grilled is equal to or less than 110 lb.

[tex]total~weight \le 110[/tex]

The total weight is made up of the weight of the chicken legs plus the weight of the racks of ribs.

1 chicken leg weighs 1.25 lb.

x chicken legs weigh 1.25x.

1 rack of ribs weighs 7 lb.

y racks of ribs weight 7y.

The total weight of the meat is

1.25x + 7y.

That weigh must be less than or equal to 110 lb.

[tex] 1.25x + 7y \le 110 [/tex]

Answer: A. [tex] 1.25x + 7y \le 110 [/tex]

Answer:

A is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

1.25 per every Chicken leg

Chicken leg=x

7 per every Rack of ribs

Rack of ribs= y

1.25x+7y<110

A pair of jeans is sold for $28. If the sales tax is 6%, what is the total cost of the jeans including tax?

Answers

The total cost would be $29.68.

$28 + 6% = $29.68
$28 x 0.01 = 0.28
0.28 x 6 = $1.68
$28 + $1.68 = $29.68

Answer:

29.68

Step-by-step explanation:

28 x 0.06 = 1.68

T = SP + ST

T = 28 + 1.68

T = 29.68

Answers

Answer:

angle 1= 122

Step-by-step explanation:

We know this is an isosceles triangle because of the two marks indicating that the lines have the same measure and therefore have the same angle measurement as well.

Frist let's find the the 2 smaller sides by subtracting 64 from 180 and dividing by 2 (both sides are the same).

180-64=116,   116/2=58,    

Now we know the measure of the smaller angles, and notice that the smaller angle on the  forms a linear pair (both add up to 180 degrees) with angle 1

so, 180-58= angle 1

Angle 1=  122

Every year on November 1, the Stablo family plants a tree. This tradition has happened for generations and the first tree the family planted is now 183 years old. Two of the trees were planted in their backyard; one is an apple tree and the other is a maple tree. The maple tree is older than 100, but was not the first tree planted. On November 1 of this year, the age of the maple tree is fifteen times the age of the apple tree.
On November 1 of some year from now, the age of the maple tree will be eleven times the age of the apple tree. How old are the trees that year?

Answers

Answer:

Apple- 14 Maple- 154

Step-by-step explanation

Since 11 x n - n is equal to a number that ends in 10, 20 etc. and the number has to be a multiple of 11 for the maple tree, and the difference has to stay the same throughout two all we need to find is 15 x n = a number that is divisable by 10. 15 x 10 = 150 so that's the age of the trees this year, and the difference between the trees is 140 so it corresponds with our rule. and the multiple of 11 that the difference is 140 is 11 x 14 = 154 and 154 - 11 = 140. Therefore the apple tree is 14 years old and the maple tree is 154 years old.

According to the graph, what is the experimental probability of selecting the letter T?




1/20


4


1/4


1/5

Answers

Answer: the answer is 1/5 I put 4 and got it wrong, after submitting the test it showed me the answer

Experimental probabilities are based on the results of an experiment.

The experimental probability of T is (d) 1/5

From the graph, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{M = 6}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{A = 3}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{T = 4}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{H = 7}[/tex]

So, the experimental probability of T is:

[tex]\mathbf{P(T) = \frac{T}{M + A + T + H}}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{P(T) = \frac{4}{6 + 3 + 4 + 7}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(T) = \frac{4}{20}}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]\mathbf{P(T) = \frac{1}{5}}[/tex]

Hence, the experimental probability of T is (d) 1/5

in order to lure new customers to a credit card, a bank is offering an initial cash back award, plus cash back amounting to a percentage of the value of all purchases made with the card. If p is the value if all purchases made with the card and c is the amount of cash back, which of these equations does the graph represent?

Answers

Answer:

c = 0.03p + 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the line representing the relation between cash back and value of purchases be,

c = mp + b

Where m = slope of the line = rate of change in cash back earned

b = y-intercept = cash back already earned  

Slope of the line = [tex]\frac{\triangle p}{\triangle c}[/tex] = slope of the line passing through points (0, 150) and  (2000, 210)

= [tex]\frac{210-150}{2000-0}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{60}{2000}[/tex]

= 0.03

And 'b' = y-intercept = 150

Therefore, equation represented by the graph will be,

c = 0.03p + 150
