Answer:

520 people in 2 hours

rate = 260 people per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

change minutes to hours

15 minute* 1 hr/60 minutes = .25 hrs

65 people      x people

---------------  = ------------------

.25 hrs            2 hrs


using cross products

65 * 2 = .25 * x

130 = .25x

divide by .25

130/.25 = .25x/.25

520 =x

520 people

65 people      x people

---------------  = ------------------

.25 hrs            1 hrs

using cross products

65 = .25x

divide by .25

65/.25 = .25x/.25

260 =x

260 people in 1 hour

rate = 260 people per hour

How do you find surface area (just the basis)?
Leokris [45]
To find surface area of 3D objects, you have to know the area formulas for basic shapes. For example, the area of a circle is \pi r^{2} and the area of a rectangle is length times width. To find surface area of a cylinder, you will need to know both of those formulas, since the 3D shape involves both circles and rectangles.
