Part A
The rabbit can eat 70 pounds of food in 80 days. The unit rate is 70/80 = 0.875 pounds of food per day. Multiply this with the 24 days to get the total amount eaten over that timespan.
24*0.875 = 21
<h3>
Answer: 21 pounds of food</h3>
=========================================================
Part B
x = number of days
The rabbit eats at a unit rate of 0.875 pounds per day. After x number of days pass by, the rabbit has eaten a total of 0.875x pounds of food. Set this equal to 87.5 and solve for x.
0.875x = 87.5
x = (87.5)/(0.875)
x = 100
<h3>Answer: 100 days</h3>
=========================================================
Part C
This is is similar to part A, just with different numbers. We could follow those steps to get the answer, but I'll go another route.
Instead, I'll use a proportion to solve.
(95 pounds)/(65 days) = (x pounds)/(365 days)
95/65 = x/365
95*365 = 65*x
34675 = 65x
65x = 34675
x = 34675/65
x = 533.461538
x = 533.5
<h3>
Answer: 533.5 pounds of food</h3>
Answer:
For the entire United States, excluding Hawaii and Alaska, the average amount of moisture falling as rain and snow is 30.21 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
depends on the state
Answer:
For each part, find how many numbers have the stated characteristic, then divide by 21.
e.g. multiples of 5:
these would be 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30
so prob (a multiple of 5 ) = 5/21
Do the others the same way
Answer:
13.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ
P = ₉C₅ (0.37)⁵ (1−0.37)⁹⁻⁵
P ≈ 0.138
