Answer:

370 minutes.

Explanation:

You can calculate the time by using the formula of rate:

 rate = amount / time = number of drops / time

From which you clear the time:

time = number of drops / rate

The rate and the number of drops are given: 41 drops / minute and 15,000 drops (since that is the number of drops in 1.00 gallons).

Therefore, time = 15,000 drops / 41 drops / minute = 365.85 minutes

You have to use the correct number of significant figures, which is the least number of significant figures in every factor. 41 has two significant figures, 15,000 also has two significant figures, while 1.00 has three significant figures.

So you must round 365.85 minutes to two significant figures.

That is 370 (365 is round up to 370).

docker41 [41]

Area of wooden support is 36 square inches

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, carpenter cut out a small trapezoid as a wooden support for the front step

<em><u>The area of trapezoid is given as:</u></em>

area = \frac{a+b}{2} \times h

Where, "h" is the height

"a" and 'b" are the length of base

Here given that,

Height = h = 4 inches

a = 6 inches

b = 12 inches

Substituting the values we get,

area = \frac{6+12}{2} \times 4\\\\area = 18 \times 2\\\\area = 36

Thus area of wooden support is 36 square inches
