<em>They took 101 peaches to market.</em>
<u>Check:</u>
In the 1st hour, they sold (101/2 + 1/2) = 102/2 = 51. They had 50 left.
In the 2nd hour, they sold (50/3 + 1/3)=51/3=17. They had (50-17)=33 left.
In the 3rd hour, they sold (33/4 + 3/4) = 36/4 = 9. They had (33-9) = 24 left.
In the final hour, they sold (24/5 + 1/5) = 25/5 = 5. They had (24-5) = 19 left. yay!
Fiona and Camilla took their 19 remaining peaches and went home. Sharing with
their parents and their brother Rowlf, each person had 3.8 peaches for dinner.
There was a lot of activity in the bathroom overnight.
================================================
The key to solving this one is to work it backwards.
-- They had 19 peaches left at the end of the day.
-- During the final hour, the 1/5 of a peach that they sold left them with 19,
so they had 19-1/5 before they sold the 1/5 of a peach.
The 19-1/5 was 4/5 of what they had at the beginning of the final hour.
So, at the beginning of the final hour, they had (5/4)x(19.2) = 24 .
-- During the 3rd hour, the 3/4 of a peach that they sold left them with 24,
so they had 24-3/4 before they sold the 3/4 of a peach.
The 24-3/4 was 3/4 of what they had at the beginning of that hour.
So, at the beginning of the 3rd hour, they had (4/3)x(24.75) = 33 .
Do the same for the 2nd hour.
Then do the same for the 1st hour.
And you'll work your way back up to 101 peaches.
Answer:
F
Step-by-step explanation:
if you do the math you end up with 49 which is a perfect square of 7
Y= -1/3x+5
the y-intercept is 5 and the slope is -1/3
Answer:
72 yd / min
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing is to fully calculate the distance traveled, each lap is 200 yards and how 6 laps would be:
200 * 6 = 1200
Now, let's divide the race into how the statement tells us:
1200 * 2/3 = 800
1200 * 1/3 = 400
That is, in the first 800 yards it goes to 80 yd / min and then in the remaining 400 yards it goes to 60 yd / min, let's calculate the time Rhea lasted:
800/80 = 10 min
400/60 = 6,667 min
Which means that in total it would be:
10 + 6,667 = 16,667
In other words, Rhea took 16,667 minutes to travel 1,200 yards, so the speed would be:
1200 / 16,667 = 72
Therefore the average Rhea speed was 72 yd / min
Answer:
Unit rates can be used to compare two rates.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is not true because unit rates CAN'T be used to compare two rates. It's as simple as that. I don't know a simpler way to say it! lol I hope this helps! Please mark as brainliest! :D
