Using proportions, it is found that 1685% of an hour passes between 11:24 am and 415 am.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

One hour is composed by 60 minutes. Between 11:24 am and 4:15 am, there are 16 hours and 51 minutes, hence the number of minutes is given by:

M = 16 x 60 + 51 = 1011 minutes.

As a percentage of one hour = 60 minutes, we have that this measure is:

1011/60 x 100% = 1685%.

Hence 1685% of an hour passes between 11:24 am and 415 am.

A rectangular prism must have a base with an area of no more than 27 square meters. The width of the base must be 9 meters less

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The maximum height of the prism is $12\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the height of the prism

we know that

the area of the rectangular base of the prism is equal to

$A=L*W$

$A\leq 27\ m^{2}$

$L*W\leq 27$ -------> inequality A

$W=x-9$ ------> equation B

$L=W+6$ -----> equation C

Substitute equation B in equation C

$L=(x-9)+6$

$L=x-3$ ------> equation D

Substitute equation B and equation D in the inequality A

$(x-3)*(x-9)\leq 27$ -------> using a graphing tool to solve the inequality

The solution for x is the interval----------> $[0,12]$

see the attached figure

but remember that

The width of the base must be $9$ meters less than the height of the prism

the solution for x is the interval ------> $(9,12]$

The maximum height of the prism is $12\ m$

victus00 [196]

Given:

Kelly purchased 5 containers of ice cream for a party.

Each container holds 8 cups of ice cream.

Her brother ate 2 cups of ice cream.

One serving of ice cream = 2/3 of a cup.

To find:

Number of servings of ice cream will be left for the party?

Solution:

We have,

1 container = 8 cups of ice cream

5 containers = 5×8 = 40 cups of ice cream

Her brother ate 2 cups of ice cream. So, remaining cups of ice cream is

$40-2=38$ cups

Now,

$\dfrac{2}{3}$ of a cup = 1 serving

1 cup = $\dfrac{3}{2}$ serving

38 cup = $38\times \dfrac{3}{2}$ serving

= $19\times 3$ serving

= 57 serving

Therefore, 57 servings of ice cream will be left for the party.

The cost of 7 chairs and 2 tables is equal.If the cost of 6 chairs and 5 tables is 10575, find the cost of 12 chairs.

Igoryamba

Answer:

5400

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of a chair and y represent the cost of a table. We can use this to set up a system of equations:

7x=2y

6x+5y=10575

We can solve this system using substitution.

Start by rewriting the first equation in terms of x.

$7x=2y\\\text{Divide both sides by 7}\\x=\frac{2}{7}y$

Substitute this into the second equation:

$6(\frac{2}{7}y)+5y=10575\\\frac{12}{7}y+5y+10575\\\frac{12}{7}y+\frac{35}{7}y=10575\\\frac{47}{7}y=10575$

Multiply both sides by 7

$47y=74025$

Divide both sides by 47

$y=1575$

This means...

$7x=2(1575)\\7x=3150$

Divide both sides by 7

$x=450$

One chair costs 450. Now, multiply this number by 12 to find the cost of 12 chairs.

$450*12=5400$

12 chairs cost 5400.
