Answer:

7/40 is still left with him.

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM 5,10,8 = 40

2/5 = (x8) = 16/40 = food

3/10 = (x4) = 12/40 = rent

1/8 = (x5) = 5/40 = other expenses.

16/40 +12/40 + 5/40 = 33/40

40/40 - 33/40 = 7/40

Answer:

\frac{7}{40}

Step-by-step explanation:

1-(\frac{2}{5}+\frac{3}{10}+\frac{1}{8})

1-\frac{33}{40}

\frac{7}{40}=0.175

At the metal-casting company where you work, you must set up a conveyor system to move castings from the furnace to the heat tre
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

2.35 yards/second or 7.07 ft/second

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance to be covered is 55 yards.

The casting cools at the rate of 0.3^\circ \text F and the temperature must not be allowed to cool more than 7^\circ \text F.

We know that, \text {distance} = \frac{\text {speed}}{\text {time}}

By the time, the temperature reaches 7^\circ \text F, it will take about,

\frac{7}{0.3}=23.33\text s, so it will take about 23.33 seconds.

Also, 55 yards = 55 \times 3 =165 ft

So the minimum speed that conveyor must move is,

\frac{165}{23.33}=7.07 ft/s

Hence, the speed of conveyor is 7.07 feet per second.

The mean amount spent by a family of four on food per month is $500 with a standard deviation of $75. assuming that the food cos
Bumek [7]
                                  
Are you familiar with z-scores?  According to the definition,

       (given numerical value) - (mean)
z = ---------------------------------------------
              standard deviation

Thus, with the given numerical value equal to 410 and the std. dev. equal to 75, the corresponding z-score is 
       
          410-500                  -90
z = --------------------- = --------------- = -1.2
               75                        75

Use a table of z-scores to determine the area under the standard normal curve to the left of z = -1.2.  Your result is the probability that a given family chosen at random spends less than $410 per month.

How do you teach someone to determine prime numbers when they don't know multiplication facts?
kicyunya [14]
Do they know how to divide?

If so, tell them to divide the number in as many ways until you go past the number

For example, if your seeing if 9 is a prime number divide 9 by ,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and only count the whole numbers.

This sounds complicated so just teach them simple time tables
