Oil spill spreads 25 m² every 1/6 hour how much area does the oil spill cover after two hours

2 answers:

1/6 of an hour is 10 minutes because there are 60 minutes in an hour so 60/6=10
so it's 25m^2/10minutes
now just multiply 25 by 12 ( 12 lots of 10 minutes in 2 hours)
25*12=300
answer is 300m^2

hope this helped

Hello!

Given the stated problem of an oil spill spreading at a rate of 25m^2 per 1/6 of an hour, which is equal to 10min, and they want to know what the area coverage from the oil spill is after 2 hours.

If we know that the oil spill spreads at a rate of 25m^2 per 10min and they want the area after two hours or 120min we get;

Area spread rate(Area/time) * total time wanted = new area at the total time

In the problem it tells us the area spread rate and total time so we can just plug and chug at this point. So we have;

25m^2/10min * 120min = 300m^2 after 2 hours of spreading.

Hope this helps! Any questions please ask! Thank you!!

Of the students in your class, 12% are left-handed. What fraction of the students are left-handed? Are there more right-handed o

kvv77 [185]

The left-handed students
12% are left handed, percent means per hundred. Change percent into per 100.
12% = $\dfrac{12}{100}$

Then simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 4
$\dfrac{12}{100}$
= $\dfrac{12:4}{100:4}$
= $\dfrac{3}{25}$
This is the fraction showing the proportion of the left-handed students

The right-handed students
Determine the fraction showing the proportion of the right-handed students
1 - the left-handed
= 1 - $\dfrac{3}{25}$

Equalize the denominator to 25
$\dfrac{25}{25} - \dfrac{3}{25}$

Simplify
$\dfrac{21}{25}$
This is the proportion of the right-handed students

Are there more right-handed or left-handed students?
There are more right-handed students than the left-handed students, because 21/25 is more than 3/25

Find the absolute value of 2 and 2 3rd and negative 9 over 4

gayaneshka [121]

we are given

absolute value of 2 and 2 3rd and negative 9 over 4

Firstly , we need write it in terms of expression

2 and 2 3rd is

$2+\frac{2}{3}$

so, we get as

$|2+\frac{2}{3} -\frac{9}{4} |$

now, we can simplify it

Firstly , we will find common denominator

$|\frac{2*12}{1*12} +\frac{2*4}{3*4} -\frac{9*3}{4*3} |$

$|\frac{24}{12} +\frac{8}{12} -\frac{27}{12} |$

we can see that

all denominators are same

so, we can combine numerators

$=|\frac{24+8-27}{12} |$

$=|\frac{5}{12} |$

$=\frac{5}{12}$ ..............Answer

Use technology and the given confidence level and sample data to find the confidence interval for the population mean mu . assum

attashe74 [19]

To solve for the confidence interval for the population mean mu, we can use the formula:

Confidence interval = x ± z * s / sqrt (n)

where x is the sample mean, s is the standard deviation, and n is the sample size

At 95% confidence level, the value of z is equivalent to:

z = 1.96

Therefore substituting the given values into the equation:

Confidence interval = 3 ± 1.96 * 5.8 / sqrt (51)

Confidence interval = 3 ± 1.59

Confidence interval = 1.41, 4.59

Therefore the population mean mu has an approximate range or confidence interval from 1.41 kg to 4.59 kg.

A coin is tossed 10 times resulting in 7 heads and 3 tails. The same coin is tossed 1000 times resulting in 510 heads and 490 ta

KiRa [710]

The answer is C. 50%.

The theoretical probability has nothing to do with the experiments. So, we will forget results of the experiment and think about theoretical probability. A coin has two sides - head and tail. The probability to get head is 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%. This is because if you toss the coin and you get head, head is one probability of two probability in total (head and tail). The same situation is with tail. Tail is .one probability of two probability in total (head and tail).

Jackie’s report is 5 pages longer than half the number of pages in Kane’s report. There are 14 pages in Kane’s report.

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jackie's report is longer than half kane's report, then

Jackie report=1/2 kane's report +5

1/2(14) +5

7+5

=12

therefore, Jackie's report =12
