Answer:

70 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called inverse proportion.

1hr : 14in

x hr : 12in

Ask yourself, what do you do to 14 to get 12? To find this out, we do:

14 / 12 = 1.16666667

Since the blade is smaller, it will take longer. So, we times 1hr by 1.16666667 to get

1.16666667 hrs =

1.17 hours (rounded)

This is 70.2 mins, or 1hr 10 mins

Hope this helps!

If the time taken by 14 inches wide is one hour then the blade of 12 inches wide will take 1 hour 17 minutes to mow a lawn.

What is width?

The width of something is the measurement of one side of a body. It is generally less than length of that body or shape.

How to calculate time?

We have been given time of 1 hour if blade is 14 inches wide and we have to calculate time taken by 12 inches wide blade:

It will be as 14/12* 1 hour

=14/12

=1.167

=1.17 hour

Hence the time taken by the blade of 12 inches wide will be 1 hour and 17 minutes.

Mary wants to buy one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks. The drinks cost $p$ dollars each, the medium pizza costs
Korolek [52]

Answer:

30-8p

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent cost of each drink.

We have been given that the medium pizza costs two times as much as one drink, so the cost of medium pizza would be 2p.

We are also told that the large pizza costs three times as much as one drink,  so the cost of la pizza would be 3p.

We have been given that Mary wants to buy one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks.

Since the cost of one drink is p, so cost of 3 three drinks would be 3p.

The total cost of one large pizza, one medium pizza, and three drinks would be 2p+3p+3p=8p

Mary started with $30, so amount left after all of her purchases would be 30 minus total cost of all purchases.

30-8p

Therefore, Mary will have 30-8p dollars left after making all of her purchases.

Julia swam 3/4 of a mile in the pool.if each lap is 1/16 of a mile,how many laps did she swim.
lions [1.4K]

The answer is twelve because to Make the two fractions denominators equal you have to multiply the  numerator and denominator by 4 to get the denominators equal which gets you a fraction of 12/16 and if you divide that by 1/16 because that is how long each lap is then you get 16 which is the amount of laps they swam
