Given the amount of water needed to fill the cement dam and the water pump rate, the time needed to fill the dam is 400 minutes or 6hours 40minutes.

Option B)6h 40min is the correct answer.

<h3>How long does it take to fill the dam?</h3>

Given that;

  • Amount of water needed to fill the dam A = 30000 litres
  • Pump rate r = 75 litres per minute
  • Time needed to fill the dam T = ?

To determine how long it take to fill the dam, we say;

Time need = Amount of water needed ÷ Pump rate

T = A ÷ r

T = 30000 litres ÷ 75 litres/minute

T = 400 minutes

Note that; 60min = 1hrs

Hence,

T = 6hours 40minutes

Given the amount of water needed to fill the cement dam and the water pump rate, the time needed to fill the dam is 400 minutes or 6hours 40minutes.

Option B)6h 40min is the correct answer.

Courtney had $55 to spend at the fair. She paid $22.50 for rides and $14.25 for lunch and snacks. Courtney says she has $18.25 l
IrinaVladis [17]
She has $55. She spent $22.50 on rides so now she has $32.50 . Then she spends $14.25 on lunch and snack so now she has $18.25.


A. would be wrong because Courtney IS correct, she has $18.25 left.

C. is also wrong because, again, Courtney IS correct.

So the only option left is B and it explains why Courtney is correct.

Option B is the correct answer.

Hope this helps.

100 is 1/10 of what?
lawyer [7]

\boxed{ \ 100 \ is \ \frac{1}{10} \ of \ 1,000 \ }  

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The question can be rewritten to \boxed{ \ 100 \ is \ \frac{1}{10} \ of \ M \ }  

This case about equations with one variable. We have to solve this calculation to obtain the value of M. Our task is to isolate the variable M alone at the end of the process on one side of the equation until the variable will be equal to a value on the opposing side.  

Let's arrange it into an equation, i.e., \boxed{ \ 100 \ = \ \frac{1}{10} \times \ M \ }  

Turn this equation over so that the position of variable M is on the left side.  

\boxed{ \ M \times \frac{1}{10} = 100 \ }  

Both sides are multiplied by 10 to isolate M on the left side. The fraction are eliminated.  

\boxed{ \ M \times \frac{1}{10} \times 10 = 100 \times 10 \ }  

M = 1,000  

Therefore, we have calculated the number that was asked.  

Hence \boxed{ \ 100 \ is \ \frac{1}{10} \ of \ 1,000 \ }  

<u>Note:  </u>

The significant thing to carry out is how to manipulate both sides of the equation with the algebraic properties of equality such as:  

  • Adding  
  • Subtracting  
  • Multiplying, and/or  
  • Dividing both sides of the equation with a similar number

And the commutative property of multiplication, i.e., \boxed{ \ a \times b = b \times a \ }

In the net of a cylinder, one dimension of the rectangle is the same as the circumference of each circular base. Is this true or
Dominik [7]

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we look at a cylinder, it has be observed that it has 3 parts or 3 shapes to it.

These 3 parts or shapes are referred to as the net of a cylinder.

This 3 parts include

a. A circle at the top

b. A circle at the bottom.

c. A rectangle.

The circle at the bottom gives us the base of the cylinder while the rectangle is curved when forming the cylinder and it is due to this that we have the curved surface area of the cylinder.

It is important to know that there is a relationship between the length of one of the edges of the rectangle and the circumference of the base of the cylinder such that, the length of one of the edges of the rectangle is equal to or equivalent to the circumference of each circular base.
