Lets say you can go on 'x' number of times

If every time it takes 2min to prepare for the ride and the ride itself takes 1 and 1/2 min, then both together would be

2min + 1 and 1/2 min = 3 and 1/2 min

Now divide from 30

30/ (7/2) #notice I changed 3 and 1/2 to 7/2 so they are the same denominator

= 30 * 2/7 # when dividing by a fraction, you can multiply the numerator by the reverse of the bottom fraction

= 60/7

This number can not be simplified. However the number of full rides would be 8 times

7*8 = 56

Now the remaining 4/7 times... isn't possible! You can't go on a ride less than one time!

So the answer is 8!

8 or 8 1/2 because you won't finish the ride due to 28 + 3 1/2 being odd

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + breadth)

=> 2{2x + (x + 4)) = 20

=> (2x + x + 4) = 20/2 = 10

=> 3x + 4 = 10

=> 3x = 10 - 4 = 6

=> x = 6/3 = 2

Here, according to the diagram

Length = 2x = 2(2) = 4

Breadth = x + 4 = 2+4 = 6

But breadth should always be lesser than the length. From this, it can be concluded that the actual breadth is 2x and actual length is x + 4, for perimeter to be 20.

You have been asked to design a rectangular box with a square base and an open top. The volume of the box must be 500cm3. Determ

Answer:

x = 10 cm, y = 5 cm gives a minimum area of 300 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

V= x^2y = 500

Surface area A = x^2 + 4xy.

From the first equation y = 500/x^2

So substituting for y in the equation for the surface area:

A = x^2 + 4x * 500/x^2

A = x^2 + 2000/x

Finding the derivative:

dA/dx = 2x - 2000x^-2

dA/dx = 2x - 2000/x^2

This = 0 for a minimum/maximum value of A, so

2x - 2000/x^2  = 0

2x^3 - 2000 = 0

x^3 = 2000/ 2 = 1000

x = 10

Second derivative is  2 + 4000/x^3

when x = 10  this is positive so x = 10 gives a minimum value of A.

So y =  500/x^2

= 500/100

= 5.
