Answer:

snail will take 8 hours and 20 minutes to crawl 1 meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we can calculate the time traveled by snail in 1 meter by applying unitary method.

∵ Snail crawls 12 centimeter distance in the time = 1 hour

∴ Snail crawls 1 centimeter in the time = $\frac{1}{12}$ hour

∴ Snail will crawl 100 centimeters (1 meter) = $\frac{100}{12}$ hours

= $8\frac{1}{3}$ hours

= 8hours 20minutes

Therefore, snail will take 8 hours and 20 minutes to crawl 1 meter.

A certain slot machine has three identical independent wheels, each with 13 symbols as follows: 1 bar, 2 lemons, 2 bells, 2 plum

kari74 [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

there are 13 symbols in slot machines i.e. 1 bar , 2 lemons , 2 bells ,2 plums ,3 cherries , 3 oranges

there are Total of 3 machines

Probability of getting bar in machine is $\frac{1}{13}$

Probability of getting 3 bar on 3 machine $=\frac{1}{13} \times\frac{1}{13}\times \frac{1}{13}=\frac{1}{2197}=0.0004$

Probability of getting an orange $=\frac{3}{13}$

Probability of getting 3 oranges on 3 machine $=\frac{3}{13} \times\frac{3}{13}\times \frac{3}{13}=\frac{27}{2197}=0.0122$

Probability of getting a Plum $=\frac{2}{13}$

Probability of getting 3 Plums on 3 machine $=\frac{2}{13} \times\frac{2}{13}\times \frac{2}{13}=\frac{8}{2197}=0.0036$

The cash drawer of the market contains $227. There are six more $5 bills than $10 bills. The number of $1 bills is two more than

k0ka [10]

Answer:

There are 122 one dollar bills, 11 five dollar bills and 5 ten dollar bills.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are bills of one dollar, five dollars and ten dollars on the cash drawer, therefore the sum of all of them multiplied by their respective values must be equal to the total amount of money on the drawer. We will call the number of one dollar bills, five dollar bills and ten dollar bills, respectively "x","y" and "z", therefore we can create the following expression:

$x + 5*y + 10*z = 227$

We know that there are six more 5 dollar bills than 10 dollar bills and that the number of 1 dollar bills is two more than 24 times the number of 10 dollar bills, therefore:

$y = z + 6\\x = 2 + 24*z$

Applying these values on the first equation, we have:

$2 + 24*z + 5*(z + 6) + 10*z = 227\\2 + 24*z + 5*z + 30 + 10*z = 227\\39*z + 32 = 227\\39*z = 227 - 32\\39*z = 195\\z = \frac{195}{39}\\z = 5$

Applying z to the formulas of y and x, we have:

$y = 5 + 6 = 11\\x = 2 + 24*5 = 122$

There are 122 one dollar bills, 11 five dollar bills and 5 ten dollar bills.
