Answer: The last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. By definition a number written in scientific notation has the following form:

$a10^{b}$

Where <em>a</em> is the coefficient (which is a number between 1 and 10 but not including 10) and <em>b</em> is the exponent (It must be an integer).

2. The decimal point of the coefficient must be wrriten after the first digit.

3. Based on this information, the number shown in the last option has the decimal point after the second digit, therefore, it is not written is scientific notation.

Answer: The answer is 0.25 miles.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that my friend started walking at a speed of 3 miles per hour and I started 5 minutes after him at a speed of 4 miles per hour. We need to find the number of miles my friend travelled when I started walking.

Since I started 5 minutes after than my friend, so we are to find the distance travelled by my friend in 5 minutes.

In 1 hour, i.e., 60 minutes, distance travelled by my friend = 3 miles.

In 1 minute, distance travelled by my friend is

$\dfrac{3}{60}=\dfrac{1}{20}~\textup{miles}.$

Therefore, distance travelled by my friend in 5 minutes will be

$\dfrac{1}{20}\times 5=\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25~\textup{miles}.$

Thus, the answer is 0.25 miles.

Petra was given 12 yards of fabric to make costumes for the school play if each costume requires 1 1/2 yards how many costumes c

solmaris [256]

Petra can make 8 costumes with 12 yards of fabric

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Petra was given 12 yards of fabric to make costumes for the school play

Each costume requires $1\frac{1}{2}$ yards

<em><u>To find: number of costume Petra can make</u></em>

The number of costume Petra can make is calculated by dividing the total fabric she has by fabric needed for one costume

$\text {number of costume Petra can make }=\frac{\text {total fabric she has }}{\text {fabric needed for one costume }}$

Total fabric she has = 12 yards

Fabric needed for 1 costume = $1\frac{1}{2} = \frac{2 \times 1 + 1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}$ yards

Therefore,

$\text {number of costume Petra can make }=\frac{12}{3 / 2}=\frac{12}{3} \times 2=8$

Thus petra can make 8 costumes with 12 yards of fabric
