Sasha can mow 3/8 of an acre of grass in 45minutes.how many acres of grass does Sasha now per hour?

horrorfan [7]

Keeping in mind that an hour is 60 minutes.

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
\stackrel{acre}{grass}&\stackrel{minutes}{time}\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{3}{8}&45\\
g&60
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{8}}{g}=\cfrac{45}{60}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{8}}{\frac{g}{1}}=\cfrac{45}{60}\implies \cfrac{3}{8}\cdot \cfrac{1}{g}=\cfrac{45}{60}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3}{8g}=\cfrac{45}{60}\implies 180=360g\implies \cfrac{180}{360}=g\implies \cfrac{1}{2}=g$

a cord of wood is a bundle measuring 4 feet by 4 feet by 8 feet. What's the volume of a cord of wood in cubic feet?

lisabon 2012 [21]

To find the volume of a rectangular prism, like this one, we take the measure of the Width, Length, and Height and multiply them together. So the answer is: 4*4*8. 4*4=16, and 16*8=128, so the answer is 128 Cubic Feet.

Find the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints at the given coordinates (-6,6) and (-3,-9)

JulsSmile [24]

The midpoint of the line segment with endpoints at the given coordinates (-6,6) and (-3,-9) is $\left(\frac{-9}{2}, \frac{-3}{2}\right)$

Solution:

Given, two points are (-6, 6) and (-3, -9)

We have to find the midpoint of the segment formed by the given points.

The midpoint of a segment formed by $\left(\mathrm{x}_{1}, \mathrm{y}_{1}\right) \text { and }\left(\mathrm{x}_{2}, \mathrm{y}_{2}\right)$ is given by:

$\text { Mid point } \mathrm{m}=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

$\text { Here in our problem, } x_{1}=-6, y_{1}=6, x_{2}=-3 \text { and } y_{2}=-9$

Plugging in the values in formula, we get,

$\begin{array}{l}{m=\left(\frac{-6+(-3)}{2}, \frac{6+(-9)}{2}\right)=\left(\frac{-6-3}{2}, \frac{6-9}{2}\right)} \\\\ {=\left(\frac{-9}{2}, \frac{-3}{2}\right)}\end{array}$

Hence, the midpoint of the segment is $\left(\frac{-9}{2}, \frac{-3}{2}\right)$

For the equation , y = -3x + 5 , tell whether its graph passes through the first quadrant. Explain how you know.

Vsevolod [243]

For any point to be in the first quadrant, it must have a positive "x" value and "y" value.
If x = 1 then y = 2, a point with both x and y positive values which would be in the First Quadrant.
