A construction company can remove 3/3/4 metric tons of dirt from a construction site in 1/1/8 hours what is the unit rate in metric tons per hour write your answer as a fraction or a mixed number in simplest form

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 1/3 metric tons per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate, divide 3 3/4 metric tons by 1 1/8 hours (notice that the correct format is 3 3/4, not 3/3/4).

 3 3/4 metric tons       3.75 metric tons

---------------------------- = --------------------------

        1 1/8 hours                1.125 hours

It's easier to deal with decimal fractions here than with proper fractions.

The unit rate then comes out to be 3.75/1.125 metric tons per hour, or

3.33333 metric tons per hour, or   3 1/3 metric tons per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The function f(x) = -0.05(x2 - 26x - 120) represents the path coming out of the cannon. If x is the horizontal distance from the cannon, what does f(x) represent? (1 point)

Answers

Answer:

f(x) represents the vertical height of the cannon

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is presented as follows;

f(x) = -0.05·(x² - 26·x - 120)

Given that 'x' represent the horizontal path of the cannon and the function describes the path of the cannon, we have that the vertical height reached by the cannon as it moves along the horizontal path is given as the function f(x)

Therefore, we have;

f(0) = -0.05·(0² - 26×0 - 120) = -0.05 × -120 = 6

f(0) = 6

The starting height of the cannon = 6

The maximum height reached by the cannon is given as follows;

f'(x) = d(-0.05·(x² - 26·x - 120))/dx = -0.05·d(x² - 26·x - 120)/dx = -0.05×(2·x - 26)

f'(x) = -0.05×(2·x - 26)

f'(x) = 0 At maximum height, therefore, we have;

-0.05×(2·x - 26) = 0

(2·x - 26) = 0

2·x = 26

x = 26/2 = 13

x = 13

f(13) = -0.05·(13² - 26×13 - 120) = 14.45

The maximum height = 14.45

Therefore;

f(x) = The vertical height of the cannon


At work, Mr. Grinnell receives 20 phone calls every 60 minutes. How many calls should he expect to receive in 180 minutes?
60
80
100
40

Answers

Answer:

Use a ratio.

20/60 = x/180

180/60 = 3, so 20*3 is 60.

The answer is 60.

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how many phone calls Mr. Grinnell receives in 1 minute.

60 mins = 20

1 min = 20 ÷ 60 = 0.333

180 mins = 0.333 x 180 = 59.94

59.94 rounded to the nearest whole number = 60

Johnny and his father go fishing at 5:00 AM. After motoring 6 km upstream, Johnny writes a letter to his friend, puts the letter in a bottle, and drops it into the river. The bottle floats in the current and reaches at 7:40 AM the point where Johnny and his father began their trip. If the speed of the boat in still water is 9 km/h, what is the speed of the river current?

Answers

Answer:9/2 km per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

equation,

6/9-x + 6/x=8/3

Upstream is flowing of the boat in the opposite direction of the stream. The speed of the river current is 4.5 km per hour.

Given-

Johnny and his father go fishing at 5:00 AM.

Total traveled by the Johnny and his father in upstream is 6 km.

The speed of the boat is 9 km/h.

What is upstream?

Upstream is flowing of the boat in the opposite direction of the stream.

Let x be the speed of the river current.

Time taken by the Johnny and his father to travel 6 km in upstream is ,

[tex]=\dfrac{6}{9-x}[/tex]

The time taken by the bottle to floats in the current river is,

[tex]=\dfrac{6}{x}[/tex]

As Johnny and his father start from 5:00 AM and the bottle reached to the point where Johnny and his father began their trip at 7:40 AM. Thus the total time is,

[tex]=7:40-5:00[/tex]

[tex]=2:40[/tex]

In hours,

[tex]=2\dfrac{40}{60}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{8}{3}[/tex]

As the total time is equal to the sum of the Time taken by the Johnny and his father to travel 6 km in upstream and The time taken by the bottle to floats in the current river. Thus,

[tex]\dfrac{6}{9-x}+\dfrac{6}{x}=\dfrac{8}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{6x+54-6x}{9x-x^2}= \dfrac{8}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{27}{9x-x^2}= \dfrac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x^2-9x+\dfrac{81}{4}=0[/tex]

On solving the above quadratic equation we get the positive value of the x is 4.5.

Thus the speed of the river current is 4.5 km per hour.

it is B the median hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

A. Mean

Step-by-step explanation:

When there is an outlier, the mean is the best way to figure out the average. Median doesn't work because it determines the exact middle, and the outlier (that 2) would affect it greatly, and the mode doesnt work, because it is the value that apears most in the data set, but just because it appears most doesnt mean its the average. In this case the mode is 102, but that is not the average. I hope this helps :)

In a certain country the heights of adult men are normally distributed with a mean of 69 inches and a standard deviation of 2.2 inches. The country's military requires that men have heights between 64.6 inches and 73.4 inches.

Answers

Complete Question

In a certain country the heights of adult men are normally distributed with a mean of 69 inches and a standard deviation of 2.2 inches. The country's military requires that men have heights between 64.6 inches and 73.4 inches.

What percentage of this country's men are eligible for the military based on height?

Answer:

95.45 %

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using z score formula

z-score iis z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean = 69

σ is the population standard deviation = 2.2

For x= 64.6 inches

z = 64.6 - 69/2.2

z = -2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 64.6) = 0.02275

For x= 73.4 inches

z = 73.4 - 69/2.2

z = 2

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<73.4) = 0.97725

The probability of this country's men are eligible for the military based on height is calculated as:

p(x = 73.4) - p( x = 64.6)

0.97725 - 0.02275

= 0.9545

Converting to Percentage is

= 0.9545 × 100

= 95.45 %

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 220 ways supermarket chains can select 3 out of 12 possible sites for the construction of a new supermarket.

What are permutation and combination?

A permutation is the number of different ways a set can be organized; order matters in permutations, but not in combinations.

We have:

Supermarket chains select 3 out of 12 possible sites for the construction of a new supermarket.

As we know,

[tex]\rm C(n, r) =\dfrac{n!}{( r! (n - r)! )}[/tex]

n = 12

r = 3

[tex]\rm C(12, 3) =\dfrac{12!}{( 3! (12 - 3)! )}[/tex]

C(12, 3) = 220

Thus, there are 220 ways supermarket chains can select 3 out of 12 possible sites for the construction of a new supermarket.
