Alenkinab [10]

The number of half-hour sittings needed to watch all the shows by Devon is 11

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, Devon records 4 hours of reality shows on her DVR

she records comedy shows for 3/8 of that amount of time.

$\rightarrow \frac{3}{8} \text { of } 4 \text { hours } \rightarrow \frac{3}{8} \times 4 \rightarrow \frac{3}{2} \text { hours }$

Devon watches all the reality and comedy shows in half-hour sittings.

We have to find the number of half-hour sittings needed to watch all the shows

Now, number of half hour sittings is given as

$=\frac{\text { total time of videos }}{\text { time for hlaf hour sitting }}$

$\begin{array}{l}{=\frac{4 \text { hours for reality shows }+\frac{3}{2} \text { hours for comedy shows }}{\frac{1}{2} \text { hours for each sitting }}} \\\\ {=\frac{4+\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{8+3}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{\frac{11}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{11}{2} \times \frac{2}{1}=11}\end{array}$

Hence Devon needs 11 sittings

Henry and his family are eating at a rotating restaurant at the top of a tower. The restaurant rotates clockwise 90° every 15 mi

frutty [35]

Answer:

The table of Henry's family will be at (4, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that the initial coordinates of Henry's family is at the coordinates (-4, 4). Each 15 minutes the restaurant will rotate 90° every 15 minutes. If we follow the Cartesian plane and the center of the restaurant being at (0, 0) we know that the table will be situated at the (4, 4) coordinates of the restaurant after the first rotation. After the 30 minute mark, the restaurant rotates one more time and moves the table of Henry's family at the (4, -4) coordinates of the restaurant as the center of the restaurant will never move.
