Answer:

That is 6 days are between each pickup

Step-by-step explanation:

The recycling facility picks up 120 full barrels on each trip, and each barrel holds 12 quarts of wastewater.

Volume of water carried by recycling facility = 12 x 120 = 1440 quarts.

Wastewater is filling barrels at the rate of 11 quarts per hour.

Number of hours required to fill 1440 quarts =\frac{1440}{11}=130.91\texttt{ hours}

Number of days=\frac{130.91}{24}=5.45\texttt{ days}

So, 5.45 days are between each pickup

That is 6 days are between each pickup

11t=120(12)

11t=1440

t=1440/11

However t is in hours and we want to know days so:

d=(1440/11)/24

d=1440/264

d=60/11

d=5 5/11 days

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

$900

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 3%/100 = 0.03 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 5000 × 0.03 × 6 = 900

I = $ 900.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 5,000.00

at a rate of 3% per year

for 6 years is $ 900.00.

hram777 [196]

Answer:

The length of Ann's toy fish is 12 inches; the length of Carol's toy fish is 17 inches; and the length of Liz's toy fish is 33 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Carol's fish is c inches long, Ann's is a inches long, and Liz's is l inches long. Then:

c = 5 + a

l = 9 + 2a

a = 12

Plug 12 in for a to find c and l:

c = 5 + a = 5 + 12 = 17 inches

l = 9 + 2a = 9 + 2 * 12 = 9 + 24 = 33 inches

Thus:

The length of Ann's toy fish is 12 inches; the length of Carol's toy fish is 17 inches; and the length of Liz's toy fish is 33 inches.

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

$6.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The store is selling lemons at $0.56 each. Each lemon yields about 2 tablespoons of juice.How much will it cost to buy enough lemons to make three  9-inch lemon pies, each requiring half a cup of lemon juice?

1 cup = 16 table spoon of juice

half a cup =  8 table spoon of juice

1 pie require half a cup of lemon juice. so 1 pie requires 8 tablespoon of lemon juice

Each lemon yields about 2 tablespoons of juice

2 times 4 = 8

So 4 lemon needed to make a pie

cost of 1 lemon = 0.56

cost of 4 lemons = 0.56 \cdot 4=2.24

cost of lemon for making 3 pie= 3 \cdot 2.24=6.72
