Hollis and Charmaine are curious about which mode of transportation gets them from their apartment to the mall faster. Hollis ta

kes public transportation and gets to the mall in 18.5 minutes. Charmaine rides her bike and gets to the mall in 0.5 hours. The mall is 2.4 miles away from their apartment. Use the formula for distance traveled, distance=rate⋅time, to find each rate of travel in miles per minute. What is the difference between Hollis' rate of travel on the bus and Charmaine's rate of travel on the bike? In other words, how much faster is it to take the bus in miles per minute? Enter your answer as a decimal, rounded to the nearest hundredth, if necessary, like this: 42.53 50 pts

<span>Hollis travels 0.05 miles per minute faster than Charmaine. First, convert to the same units for both Hollis and Charmaine. So Hollis takes 18.5 minutes and Charmaine takes 0.5*60 = 30 minutes. Both girls travel 2.4 miles, so calculate how many miles per minute each takes Hollis = 2.4 / 18.5 = 0.13 miles per minute. Charmaine = 2.4 / 30 = 0.08 miles per minute. Finally determine the difference in speed between the two girls. 0.13 - 0.08 = 0.05 miles per minute.</span>

An integer is chosen at random from 1 to 50 inclusive. Find the probability that the chosen integer is divisible by 3. 8/25 3/10
pogonyaev

How many numbers from 1 to 50 are multiples of 3?

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 .......

Let's change the start and end value of the array and find the number of terms

Start at 3 and go all the way to 48 because those are the first and last multiples of 3 in this array.

There is a formula that allows us to quickly find the number of terms

We subtract the first term from the last term and divide by the amount of increase, then we add 1.

(48 - 3) / 3 + 1   =   16 numbers are exactly divisible by 3.

We have 50 numbers and 16 of them divisible by 3

16 / 50  = 8 / 25 probability

#1) A hot air balloon is at an altitude (height) of 113.2 meters. The balloon's altitude decreases by 10.8 meters every minute.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

5min

Step-by-step explanation:

First form yourself an equation,  113.2-10.8x ≤70

Now begin to work it out

*113.2-10.8(1) ≤70 (instead of x, put a number, this will be how many minutes

1~ 102.4 is not less than or equal to 70, so we repeat this process

2~ 91.9

3~81.1

4~70.3 this is not the answer because even though its at 70 there is still a .3 so we keep going,

5~59.5

59.5 is ≤ 70, so the answer is 5 minutes

P.S. don't believe me? that's okay, use the formula, plug in five to see for yourself

i hope this helps ;)

a home health care assistant prepares 10 and a half ounces of formula the mixture is 1/3 formula and 2/3 water how much formula
Dimas [21]

Total amount of the mixture = 10\frac{1}{2}=10.5 ounces

Proportion of formula = \frac{1}{3}

Proportion of water = \frac{2}{3}

Amount of water needed to make the mixture can be given as:

Total amount of mixture x Proportion of water

Using the values, we get:

Amount of water needed = 10.5*\frac{2}{3} = 7 ounces

Similarly the amount of formula needed will be:

Total amount of mixture x Proportion of formula

Using the values, we get:

Amount of formula needed = 10.5*\frac{1}{3} = 3.5 ounces

Therefore, the home health care assistant needs 3.5 ounces of formula and 7 ounces of water to prepare 10 and a half ounces of formula.
