Let n = number of glasses needed
1 glass gives us 1*0.4 = 0.4 liters of water
2 glasses give us 2*0.4 = 0.8 liters
3 glasses give us 3*0.4 = 1.2 liters
4 glasses give us 4*0.4 = 1.6 liters
and so on...
In general,
n glasses give us n*0.4 = 0.4*n liters of water
So 0.4*n is going to be the same as 3.4 as we want to fill the 3.4 liter pitcher.
Set 0.4*n equal to 3.4 and solve for n
0.4*n = 3.4
0.4*n/0.4 = 3.4/0.4 <<--- divide both sides by 0.4
n = 8.5
If we want n to be a whole number, then round up to the nearest whole number. So we'll need 9 full glasses of water to fill the 3.4 liter pitcher. There is extra water in this case which isn't used.
So the answer is either 8.5 or 9 depending on if your teacher wants you to round to the nearest whole number.
7x + 5 = 8x - 25
- 5 = -8x -5

7x - 8x = - 5 - 25
-1x = - 30

x = 30
Answer:
s = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given s is inversely proportional to t , then the equation relating them is
s =
← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition when s = 0.6, t = 5
0.6 =
( multiply both sides by 5 )
3 = k
s =
← equation of proportion
When t = 0.3, then
s =
= 10
3 piano solos....each is 5/12 hr....
u can either add : 5/12 + 5/12 + 5/12 = 15/12 = 1 1/4 hrs
or u could multiply : 3 * 5/12 = 15/12 = 1 1/4 hs
either way....same answer
Answer:
660 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
363 = (1 - 0.45)x
363 = 0.55x
x = 363/0.55 = 660
