Answer:

49 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

It would take 49 minutes for 9 people to paint 7 walls.

4 walls need 262 people/minutes (7)(36)

9 people could do that in 49 minutes (441/9)

Answer:

49 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

first we need to find the rate at which a person paints the walls :

it takes 36 minutes to paint 4 walls by 7 people :

so for 7 people the rate at which they paint the walls is : $\frac{4}{36}$ walls/minute

if we simplify we get $\frac{1}{9}$

now that was for 7 people , for 1 person the rate is : $\frac{1}{9} \frac{1}{7}$ which is $\frac{1}{63} walls / minute$

now we have the rate for one person

so for 9 people they will paint $\frac{9}{63} =\frac{1}{7}$ walls/minute

so it takes them 7 minute to paint 1 wall

which means it takes them 7 x7 = 49 minutes to paint 7 walls

A bag contains n blue and m red marbles. You randomly pick a marble from the bag, write down its color, and then put the marble

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

(mn+n²)/(m+n)

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of blue marble= n/(n+m)

probability of red marble= m/(n+m)

probability that process stops = Probability of both blue + probability of both red= n/(n+m) × n/(n+m) + m/(n+m)×m/(n+m)

= (n²+m²)/(n+m)²

P(1st marbel is blue)= P(blue and red) + P(blue and blue)

= mn/(n+m) + n²/(n+m)

= (mn+n²)/(m+n)

P(1st marble is blue | process stops)= ( (mn+n²)/(m+n)× (n²+m²)/(n+m)²)/ ((n²+m²)/(n+m)²)

= (mn+n²)/(m+n)

look at the cups shown below (images are not drawn to scale). how many more cubic inches of juice will cup B hold than cup A whe

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

18.8 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Amount of juice Cup B will hold than Cup A = Volume of cup B - volume of cup A

✔️Volume of Cup B = Volume of cylinder = πr²h

radius (r) = ½ of 2 = 1 in.

height (h) = 7 in.

Volume of cup B = π*1²*7 = 21.99 in.³

✔️Volume of Cup A = Volume of cone = ⅓πr²h

radius (r) = ½ of 2 = 1 in.

height (h) = 3 in.

Volume of cup B = ⅓*π*1²*3 = 3.14 in.³

✔️Amount of juice Cup B will hold than Cup A = 21.99 in.³ - 3.14 in.³ = 18.8 in.³ (nearest tenth)

en una fiesta hay 16 personas de las cuales el 25% son mujeres, luego llegan mas mujeres a la fiesta, de tal manera que ahora lo

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

English (Ingles):
10 Women come to the party.

Spanish (Espanol):

10 Las mujeres vienen a la fiesta.

Step-by-step explanation:

English (Ingles):

We know that there are 16 people there at the start. 25% of those people are women. We can work out by subtracting 100 by 25 that 75% of the p-eople there are men. We need to do 25% of 16 so we can work out how many men and women there are there.

So we find 10% of 16 which is 1.6 then we take off 5% of 1.6 which is 0.08. We then double 1.6 to get 20% which gives us 3.2. We now add on the 5% to make it 25% which gives us 4.

This means 25% of 16 is 4.

This tells us that there are 4 women at the party and 12 men as 16 - 4 = 12.

It now says that more women arrive which makes the percentage for men go down to 60%. We now need to add 5% on to the 25% of women there are which will tell us how many more women there are now and it will let us work out how many women and men there are in total now.

As we can't do this without it giving us 4.8, we know that 25% of people is 4 women which means 50% of people would be 8 women and we make an estimate of how many women have joined which gives us 6 people which means the total amount of women at the party is 10.

Spanish (Espanol):

Sabemos que hay 16 personas allí al principio. El 25% de esas personas son mujeres. Podemos calcular restando 100 por 25 que el 75% de las personas son hombres. Necesitamos hacer el 25% de 16 para poder calcular cuántos hombres y mujeres hay allí.

Así que encontramos el 10 % de 16, que es 1,6, luego quitamos el 5 % de 1,6, que es 0,08. Luego duplicamos 1,6 para obtener el 20%, lo que nos da 3,2. Ahora sumamos el 5% para convertirlo en 25%, lo que nos da 4.

Esto significa que el 25% de 16 es 4.

Esto nos dice que hay 4 mujeres en la fiesta y 12 hombres como 16 - 4 = 12.

Ahora dice que llegan más mujeres lo que hace que el porcentaje de hombres baje al 60%. Ahora necesitamos agregar un 5% al 25% de mujeres que hay, lo que nos dirá cuántas mujeres más hay ahora y nos permitirá calcular cuántas mujeres y hombres hay en total ahora.

Como no podemos hacer esto sin que nos dé 4.8, sabemos que el 25% de las personas son 4 mujeres, lo que significa que el 50% de las personas serían 8 mujeres y hacemos una estimación de cuántas mujeres se han unido, lo que nos da 6 personas que significa que la cantidad total de mujeres en la fiesta es 10.
