Answer:

Then Maria uses 3,1 gallons /min is the user with most gallons of water per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike uses 120 pints of water for a 5 minutes shower

1 gallon is equal to 8 pints therefore Mike uses 120/8 gallons for a 5 minutes shower

W(mi) =  120 / 8  gallons

W(mi) =  15 gallons for a 5 minutes shower

Dad uses 100 quarts, as  a gallon is equal to 4 quarts

W(d) =  100 / 4  

W(d) = 25 gallons for a 10 minutes shower

And  Maria

W(ma) = 24,8 gallons for an 8 minutes shower

Then:

Mike uses  15 gallons / 5 min

Mike uses 3 gallons / min

Dad uses 25 gallons / 10 minutes

Dad uses 2,5 gallons / min

Maria uses 24,8 gallons / 8 min

Maria uses 3,1 gallons /min

Then Maria uses 3,1 gallons /min is the user with most gallons of water per minute

The table shows the freezing point of different liquids. What
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Acetone

Step-by-step explanation:

An absolute value means that that value of whatever number you are trying to find the absolute value of will always be positive. For example, if you are trying to find the absolute value of acetone, you turn the negative into a positive, therefore the number would be 94, and you can see that 94 is a greater number than any of the other numbers in the table.

To play indoor soccer at the Sun Oaks Club, you must pay a $100 membership
sukhopar [10]

Given that:

Membership  feet to play indoor soccer at the Sun Oaks Club = $100

Hourly rate = $10

To find:

The function f represents the  cost of playing soccer at Sun Oaks.

Here, fixed cost is $100.

Let the number of hours of playing be t.  So, total variable cost is $10t.

Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost

f(t)=100+10t

So, the required function is f(t)=100+10t.

Now, if the hourly rate were halved. Then,

Hourly rate = \$ \dfrac{10}{2} = \$ 5

So, total variable cost is $5t and total cost function is

g(t)=100+5t

So, the required function is g(t)=100+5t.

Which number can be used as a common denominator for the fractions One-fourth and FIve-sixths?
Sav [38]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two fractions:

One - fourth and Five - Sixths.

To find:

The common denominator that can be used for the given fractions.

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the given fractions:

First fraction is:

\dfrac{1}{4}

Second fraction is:

\dfrac{5}{6}

The denominators of the fractions are 4 and 6.

To find a common denominator, we need to take LCM (Least Common Multiple) of the two denominators.

LCM is the least number which is divisible by the two numbers.

Let us find the LCM by factorization method.

4 = <em><u>2</u></em> \times 2

6 = <em><u>2</u></em> \times 3

The common number are taken once and other number which are not common are taken as it is.

So, the LCM is <em><u>2</u></em> \times 2 \times 3 = <em>12</em>

The numbers can be written as:

\dfrac{3}{12}, \dfrac{10}{12}

Therefore, <em>12</em> can be used as the common denominator.
