Minutes lost hourly is x/y.
One week has 24 * 7 = 168 hours.
168x / y would be minutes lost weekly, and (168/60) (x / y) = (42/15)(x/y) would be hours lost weekly.

Answer:

10080y/x hours

Explanation:

The rate = x/y

x is in minutes

y is in hours.

How many hours will it lose in one week.

Converting one week to minutes.

One week has 7 days: a day has 24 hours.

In one week we have 24×7= 168 hours

60 minutes make one hour : in 168 hours we have

60×168=10080 minutes

Hours lost at the same rate = total minutes/ rate

= 10080/(x/y)

Hours lost= 10080y/x hours

The Functions of Schemas:
1. Schemas help us to quickly interpret and categorize information. They allow us to make sense of the world around us by organizing it into meaningful categories and providing us with a framework for understanding and interpreting new information.

Problems with Schemas:
1. Schemas can lead to oversimplification and premature closure. Once we have a schema in place, we may be inclined to assume that it is the only way to interpret a situation or to assume that all new information will fit into the same categories. This can lead to inaccurate interpretations or assumptions.

What is Schemas?
Schemas
are mental structures that help organize and interpret information. They are used to interpret sensory information, organize memories, and make predictions about the future. Schemas provide a framework for understanding and interpreting the world around us. They influence the way we perceive, think, and act. Schemas are often developed through experience and can be used to guide behavior. They can also be used to understand how people create meaning in their lives. Schemas are constantly evolving and changing as we encounter new experiences. They help us make sense of the world around us and can be used to explain why people behave the way they do.
