Answer:
The answer to your question is the first rain lasted 40 hours and the second rain lasted 30 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
1st 15 ml/h = x
2nd 30 ml/h = y
Total time = 70 h and 1500 ml
1.- Write 2 equations
First rain + second rain = 70 h
x + y = 70 (I)
15x + 30 y = 1500 (II)
2.- Solve equations by elimination
Multiply first equation by -15
-15x - 15y = - 1050
15x + 30y = 1500
0x + 15y = 450
y = 450 / 15
y = 30 h
x + 30 = 70
x = 70 - 30
x = 40 h
3.- Conclude
The first rain lasted 40 h and the second rain lasted 30 h.
D cause Times x by y and your answer should be
Answer:
1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Ms. Fox loves to eat cereal and she notices that she only has 1/3 of the box of cereal left. If she spread that amount across 5 days, how much cereal will she have for each day?
The amount of cereal she would have per day is calculated as:
5 days = 1/3 of the box
1 day = x
Cross Multiply
5 days × x = 1 day × 1/3 of the box
x = 1/3 ÷ 5
x = 1/3 × 1/5
x = 1/15 of the box
when you divide -8/2=-4 and 2/2=1
-4<1
when you divide by a negative number your sign changes
4>-1
When you multiply or divide each side by 2, the signs stay the same. −16 < 4 and −4 < 1. When you multiply or divide by −2, the inequality sign reverses. 16 > −4 and 4 > −1.
I don’t see a picture is there one anyway
