Question: Tyrone says he eats dinner when the minute hand is on 12. What time do you think it is and why?

Good morning!

So obviously, since the minute hand is on the number 12 (using a traditional clock), we know that Tyrone eats at the beginning of a new hour (06:00, 15:00).  Using the word "dinner" as a clue, we can assume he is eating during the later hours of the day, meaning he could be eating anywhere towards the evening.  In this case, using all the information, we can assume Tyrone is eating at either 17:00, 18:00, 19:00 ... 21:00, since those are the most "common" times for eating dinner.

(Common core is weird, man...)
Hope this helps,

Answer:

37 and 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the bigger number be x and the smaller number be y.

Then the two numbers total 63 will give us:

y+x=63------>eqn1

The two numbers have a difference of 11.

y-x=11------->eqn2

We add equations 1 and 2 to obtain:

2y=74

Divide both sides to get:

y=37

Put y=37 into eqn2 to get:

37-x=11

x=37-11

x=26

This larger number is 37 and the smaller number is 26

The number of exports is shown as g(x). Use the data in the table below, representing both functions, to explain to your boss th
siniylev [52]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table:

Month              f(x) = Number of imports    g(x) = Number of exports

January (1)                3                                                1

February (2)             4                                                3

March (3)                  5                                                5

April (4)                     6                                                7

From the table, it is clear that:

Number of imports = number of month + 2

so

f(x) = x + 2

also

Number of exports  = 2(number of month) + 1

so

g(x) = 2x - 1

Therefore, number of imports equals the number of month plus one. i.e. f(x) = x + 2, which is a linear function.

If we compare it with slope-intercept form of the line

y=mx+b

Then,

slope = m = 1

y-intercept = 2

Also number of exports equals is also a linear function.

i.e. g(x) = 2x - 1

Here,

slope = m = 2

y-intercept = -1

A rope is wound round s drum of diameter 21cm is attached to a bucket that is resting at the bottom of a well in depth 9.89 m. F
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Depth of well = No. of turns × length of one turn

Given:   Depth of well = 9.89m = 989cm          [1m = 100cm]

Let number of turns be x

Length of one turn = 2πr or π×diameter

Now , 989=x×π×21

989=x×(22/7)×21

x=989×7/(22×21)

x=14.98 ≈15 turns    

[Number of turn never be in decimals]

Hence number of  15 complete turns of the handle required to bring up the bucket
