Answer:
If total maths hw time = 90 minutes, time spent on word problems = 1/2 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time available for maths homework be = 90 minutes. It is equal to 1.5 hour (as 1 hour = 60 minutes, 0.5 hour = 30 minutes).
1/3rd of maths homework time, ie 1/3rd of 90 minutes = 30 minutes, is used in doing word problems. These 30 minutes correspond to half (1/2 or 0.5) of an hour, as 1 hour = 30 minutes.
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the information that:
- The airplane is at 50,000 feet
- It descends 2,500 feet in 1 minute
- x = minutes
For ease of solving this question, let's set the number of minutes (x) to 1.
- In one minute, we know the plane will drop to 47,500 feet. (50,000 - 2,500(x))
There are multiple ways to write this equation bu shifting around negative and positive values. Another way to write this equation would be (-2,500(x) + 50,000). That would be choice C.

It works, so our answer is C.
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
aₙ = 2ⁿ⁻¹
a₅ = 2⁴⁻¹ =2³=8
Options A,C,D and E are the correct answers
The height of the tank must be at least 1 foot, or 12 inches. We know the floor area (which is length x width) must be at least 400 inches. Therefore these minimum dimensions already tell us that the minimum volume is 400 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches. Since we have a maximum of 5000 cubic inches, the volume must be within the range of 4800 - 5000 cubic inches.
We can set the height at exactly 1 ft (or 12 inches). Then we can select length and width that multiply to 400 square inches, for example, L = 40 inches and W = 10 in. This gives us a tank of dimensions 40 x 10 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches, which fits all the criteria.
