Choice a is a good one by the way
Answer:
66 minutes, or 1 hour and 6 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
let us first do the rectangular aquarium:
8 x 10 = 80
80 x 14 = 1120
now the second box
23 x 25 = 575
575 x 33 = 18975
we can divide the boxes volume:
18975/575 = 33
so all we have to do is times 33 by 2 which equals:
66 minutes, or 1 hour and 6 minutes.
"31-inch piece of steel is cut into three pieces"
Call the pieces a,b,c
a + b + c = 31
"second piece is twice as long as the first piece"
b = 2a
"third piece is one inch more than seven times the length of the first piece"
c = 1 + 7a
Ok, we have our equations, let's substitute the second and third into the first.
a + 2a + 1 + 7a = 31
10a + 1 = 31
10a = 30
a = 30/10 = 3
b = 2a = 6
c = 1 + 7a = 22
Check: 3 + 6 + 22 = 31, good
Answer: 3 inches, 6 inches, 22 inches
Answer:
1920 men are there in college.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the statement: At a certain college, the ratio of men to women is 6 to 5. If there are 3520 total students.
Ratio states that it is just a comparison between, or a relating of, two different things.
i.e a to b or a: b
Ratio of men to women:
Men : Women = 6: 5
Let x be the number.
Total number of Men in college = 6x and Total number of women = 5x
Since, total number of students = 3520
⇒![6x + 5x = 3520](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6x%20%2B%205x%20%3D%203520)
Combine like terms;
11x = 3520
Divide by 11 on both sides we get;
x = 320
Therefore, total number of men in college = 6x = 6(320) = 1920
