Multiplication was invented to reduce the work involved in repeated addition.
... 88 + 88 + 88 + 88 = 4×88 = 352
352 passengers are carried <em>to</em> the island each day.
_____
Some questions must be answered before we can give a definite answer.
1. If the same person rides twice, are they counted twice?
2. Are passengers on the return trips (<em>from</em> the island) counted?
3. If return trip passengers are counted, is the ferry full on those trips?
4. Does every passenger to the island return the same day?
5. Does any passenger go to the island more than once per day?
Answer:
a average person only types 38 to 40 words per min
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4104.79 Seconds or about 1.14 Hours
Step-by-step explanation:
26mi = 41842.9m
100/9.81 = 41842.9/x
41842.9 x 9.81 = 100x
410478.849 = 100x
x = 4104.78849
A rational number can always be represented as a fraction.
5.2 = 52/10
5.5 = 55/10
A number between them would be 54/10 since 54 is between 52 and 55.
An irrational number cannot be represented as a fraction. A good example of an irrational number is the square root of a number.
sqrt(5.2^2) = 5.2 ----> 5.2^2 = 27.04
sqrt(5.5^2) = 5.5 ----> 5.5^2 = 30.25
The square root of a number between 27.04 and 30.25 will be an irrational number between 5.2 and 5.5
sqrt(28) = 5.2915...
