Answer:

Assuming the same pace was kept, it would take 9.6 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find this by setting up a proportion and then cross multiplying.

5 baskets/6 mins = 8 baskets/x mins

5 * x = 6 * 8

5x = 48

x = 9.6

At the fair the ratio of male to females was 8:6. If there are 112 people at the fair how many males are there?
Viktor [21]

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common multiplier of the given ratio be x.

Therefore,

Number of males = 8x

Number of females = 6x

8x + 6x = 112 \\ 14x = 112 \\ x =  \frac{112}{14}  \\ x = 8 \\ number \: of \: males = 8x = 8 \times 8 = 64  \\

Flying against the wind a jet travels 5040 miles in 8 hours flying with the wind the same jet travels 6780 miles in 6 hours. Wha
noname [10]

Answer:

(Wind speed: 81,000) and (Rate of the jet in still air:  11,820)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 5040 times 8 is 40320.

And 6780 times 6 is 40680.

Then, add them together and the rate of the wind is 81,000.

The rate of the jet, add them (6780 plus 5040) and you'' get 11,580.

sergij07 [2.7K]
Assign the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 to success... this is 8 out of a possible 10... or 80%
state your starting point in the table of random numbers say row 3 column 2 and then given the direction down the column.. or across the row then record the digits in groups of 5 to simulate the 5 free throws... like get 20 groups of 5
next tally the successes for each group of 5... then write a conclusion based on your results and compare it to what actually happened... so how many times shot 5 of 5 4 of 5 3 of 5 2 of 5 1 of 5 0 of 5

The Italian size of a suit jacket is N centimeters, where N is the linear distance between the armpits. The American size of a s
lakkis [162]

Answer:

  B)  47

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume the 2.5P is more accurately 2.54P, then we have two relations between N and P:

  • 2.54P = 2N
  • N = P +10

Solving the second for P gives ...

   P = N -10

and substituting that into the first gives ...

  2.54(N -10) = 2N

  0.54N -25.4 = 0 . . . . . . subtract 2N

  N -47.037... = 0 . . . . . . .divide by 0.54

  N ≈ 47 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 47.037... and round

The closest value of N is 47.

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

If you take the problem at face value, you compute N=50. The closest offered answer is still 47. In this scenario, the relationship between inches and centimeters is irrelevant, as there are no inches anywhere in the problem.
