It is really simple take 5 1/5 and divide it by 2 1/6 t get 2 30/78 you can then simplify that to get 2 5/13.  Then divide since it take 60 seconds for a minute divide 60 by 13 to get 4.61, multiply that by 5 to get 23.05.  Then add that to 2 and I believe that the ant can crawl 5 1/5 feet in 2 minutes and 23 seconds.  Or take 1/6 and 1/5 and try to get the same denominator.  6 x 5 is 30 and 5 x 6 is 30 so 1/6 = 5/30 and 1/5 = 6/30.  Then it is 2 5/30 and 5 6/30 divide them to get 2 2/5 minutes.  Or that can be turned into 2 minutes and 24 seconds.  Hope this helped if not then I am truly sorry.

For 2 1/6 = 13/6 Ft, ant takes = 1 min.
So, for 1 ft, it takes = 6/13 min.

Now, for 5 1/5 = 26/5 min. it would take = 6/13 * 26/512/5 = 2.4 min

In short, Your Answer would be 2.4 min

Hope this helps!

Carlita will visit 14 cities
Tanya [424]

Answer:

$52091.95

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

The number of  cities visited = 14

Cost of each cooking demonstration = $3450

The total cost of cooking demonstration = $3450 × 14

= $48300

Book signing material = $1475

∴

The total cost of cooking demonstration and book material is:

= $48300 + $1475 = $49775 ---- (i)

Total meter traveled in visiting 14 cities = 240 * 13 = 3120 miles

However; suppose the weekly rental fee fine = $x  &

the change per mile = $y

Then

y*540 + x = 1188.15    --- (ii)

y*880 + x = 1310.55   --- (iii)

From equation (ii) and (iii)

y *340 = 122.4

y = 122.4/340

y = 0.36

From (ii)

y × 540 + x = 1188.15

(0.36)540 + x = 1188.15

x = 1188.15 - (0.36)540

x = 993.75

Hence, the total cost of travelling by RV camper = $1993.75 + 3120 × (0.36)

= $2116.95

Thus, the total amount the publisher should budget = $49975.0 + $2116.95

= $52091.95

You are working on an experiment where you want to test the effects of caffeinated beverages on the behavior of cats. You will t
vichka [17]
For the experiment, you need 2L of cola. Your first option would be to purchase 1 2L bottle of cola for $2.25. 

To calculate the second option, let's convert milliliters to liters first. There are 1,000 milliliters in 1 liter. With this, we know that there are 2,000 milliliters in 2 liters. Option 2 comes in 500-milliliter cans, which means that you would need 4 of them (2,000/500 = 4). 4 cans multiplied by $0.50 would cost you $2.00. 

Let's check the cost of your answer options.
A. 4 cans - As seen above, this would cost $2.00.
B. 1 bottle - From the question, we know this would cost $2.25.
C. 2 bottles - This would be more soda than you need and would cost $4.50 ($2.25x2)
D. 1 can - This would be .5L and not enough soda for the experiment.
E. 5 cans - This would cost $2.50, but would be an extra 500mL of soda.
F. 2 cans - This would only be 1L of soda and not enough for the experiment.
G. 3 cans - This would be 1.5L of soda and not enough for the experiment either.

For the best price option, you would choose A (four cans of soda). This would give you the amount of soda that you need at the lowest price.

qwelly [4]

Answer: 30,000 months or 2,500 years

She'd better start saving more haha.

Step-by-step explanation:

Goal=4.2x10^6\\Savings/month=1.4x10^2

\frac{4.2x10^6}{1.4x10^2} =(\frac{4.2}{1.4})x10^(^6^-^2^)=(3)x10^4=3x10^4 =30000 months=\frac{30000}{12}=2500years

<span>By definition, lines are parallel if they have the same gradient (slope). Any horizontal line has a gradient of 0, so it is parallel to any other horizontal line</span>
