Answer:

93 boxes will be needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 1570 ÷ 17

This gives the answer 92.35

So 92 boxes won't be enough. 0.35 of a box itsn't helpful in the real world. So you need 93 boxes.

Westley and Buttercup are each saving money. Westley starts with $85 in in his savings and add $5 per week (y=85+5x)
love history [14]

Answer:

After 5 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Westley starts with $85 and saves $5 per week. So:

y=85+5x

Buttercup starts with $10 and saves $20 per week. So:

y=10+20x

When they have the same amount of money, the two equations will be equal to each other. Therefore:

85+5x=10+20x

Solve for x. Subtract 10 from both sides:

75+5x=20x

Subtract 5x from both sides:

75=15x

Divide both sides by 15:

x=5

Westley and Buttercup will have the same amount of money after 5 weeks.

12345 [234]

Answer:

180 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

The rabbit population in a certain area is 500% of last years population. There are 900 rabbits this year. How many were there last year?

we know that

900 rabbits represent 500% of last year population

Last year population represent 100%

so

using proportion

Find out how many rabbits represent a percentage of 100%

\frac{900}{500\%}=\frac{x}{100\%}\\\\x=900(100)/500\\\\x=180\ rabbits

calls arrive at lynn ann fish's hotel switchboard at a rate of 2.0 per minute. the average time to handle each is 10 seconds. th
BartSMP [9]

The probability that the operator is busy is 33.33% if the call rate is 2 per minute and average time to handle is 10 seconds.

Given rate of calls 2 per minute and average time to handle a call is 10 seconds.

We have to find the probability that the operator is busy.

Probability is the chance of happening an event among all the events possible. The value of probability lies between 0 and 1.

Probability= number of items/ total items

If rate is 2 per minute then the customers handled in 1 hour=2*60=120

The average time to handle a call=10 seconds.

Therefore customers to be handled in 1 hour=360 (10*6*60)

Probability that the operator is busy is as under:

Probability=λ/μ

=120/360

=1/3

=1/3*100

=33.33%

Hence the probability that the operator is busy is 33.33%.

Drive to work in 45 min., bus to work takes 1 hr 15 min. If the average rate on the bus is 16 mph slower than his driving rate,
stich3 [128]

Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Drive to work in 45 min.

           Bus would take to travel= 1 hr 15 min

          Average rate on the bus is 16 mph slower than his driving rate.

Lets assume the average driving rate be "x" mph.

∴ Average rate of bus= (x-16)\ mph

Now converting unit of time taken to travel to work.

Remember; 1 hours= 60 minutes.

Time taken for drive to work= \frac{45\ minutes}{60\ minutes} = 0.75\ hour

Time taken in bus to work= 1 hour and 15 minutes=60\ minutes+ 15\ minutes= 75\ minutes

∴ Time taken in bus to work in hours= \frac{75\ minutes}{60\ minutes}= 1.25\ hours

Considering the distance remain constant to travel for work.

Next, forming an equation to find the value of x.

As we know, distance= speed\times time

⇒ x\times 0.75= (x-16)\times 1.25

Using distributive property of multiplication.

⇒0.75x= 1.25x-20

Adding both side by 20

⇒ 0.75x+20= 1.25x

Subtracting both side by 0.75x

⇒20= 0.5x

Dividing both side by 0.5

⇒x= \frac{20}{0.5}

∴ x= 40\ mph

Hence the average rate for drive to work is 40mph.

Now, subtitiuting the value of x to find the distance travelled to work.

Distance travelled= 40\times 0.75= 30\ miles

Hence, distance travelled to work is 30 miles.
