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

Hi there!

nearest percentage=64%

<em><u>1.Subtract starting value and final value:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>1599-579=1020<em><u /></em>

<em><u>2.Divide it by the starting value:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>1020*1599= 0.6378986866791744840525328330206378986<em><u /></em>

<em><u>3.Multiply the term by 100:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>0.6378986866791744840525328330206378986<em><u>·</u></em>100= 63.78986866791744840525328330206378986<em><u /></em>

<em><u>4.Round the term:</u></em>

<em><u /></em>63.78986866791744840525328330206378986=64<em><u /></em>

Therefore, the decrease of the total 8 years was 64%.

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Population

Step-by-step explanation:

A population can be defined as the total number of living organisms living together in a particular place and sharing certain characteristics in common.

A sample survey is a statistical method used for the collection of data from a target population in order to draw an inference and reach a logical conclusion.

In Statistics, sampling can be defined as a process used to collect or select data (objects, observations, or individuals) from a larger statistical population using specific procedures.

In this scenario, the entire group of registered voters in Florida is an example of a population.

Poor Milhouse is hopelessly in love with Lisa. Unfortunately for Milhouse, Lisa does not feel the same way. However, Milhouse re
rewona [7]

Answer:

15.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each day there is a 6% chance that Lisa smiles at him then that means that each day there is a 94% chance that Lisa does not smile at him. To find the probability of Milhouse going longer than a month (30 days) without a smile from Lisa we need to multiply this percentage in decimal form for every day of the month. This can be solved easily by putting 94% to the 30th power which would be the same, but first, we need to turn it into a decimal...

94% / 100 = 0.94

0.94^{30} = 0.156

Now we can turn this decimal into a percentage by multiplying by 100

0.156 * 100 = 15.6%

Finally, we can see that the probability that Milhouse goes longer than a month without a smile from Lisa is 15.6%

Answer:

50mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Say for example car A increases by 10 miles per hour and car B decreases by 10 miles per hour. If car A2 = car B3 then by eliminating a few numbers and finally get to 50 you get the following equation.

A = 50+10

b = 50-10

A = 60

B = 40

A2 = 120

B3 = 120

120 = 120
