Answer:

$C = 0.30(m) + 15

C is bill cost

m is number of minutes used

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to write an equation that estimates the bill cost of Maggie’s phone bills.

We proceed as follows;

Now, let’s try and find the base fee.

We can calculate this using her bill for September.

Mathematically;

Bill = (Cost per minute * total minutes) + Base fee

Here, $0.30 per minute for 120 minutes will yield a total of 120 * 0.3 = $36

This means the base fee would be $51-$36 = $15

Now let’s say the bill is $C, and the number of minutes used is m

Mathematically;

$C = 0.30(m) + 15

You work at Dave's Donut Shop. Dave has asked you to determine how much each box of a dozen donuts should cost. There are 12 don
Archy [21]

Answer:

Donuts(b) = 12*b

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the question is:

What's an expression to model the number of donuts in b boxes?

We know that we are talking of boxes of a dozen donuts.

We know that in one dozen, we have 12 donuts.

Then if we have b boxes, and in each box we have 12 donuts, we will have a total of b times 12 donuts, the expression is:

Donuts(b) = 12*b

There is a lot of information here that we did not use (like the cost of cardboard and donuts), and that may be there just to distract us, the important thing to do here is:

See what is the thing we want to find (in this case, the number of donuts in b boxes)

Find the relevant information to solve this. (ignore the irrelevant information)

This is the pond in a shape of a prism, it is completely full of water. Colin uses a pump to empty the pond. The level goes down
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

150 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Given - This is the pond in a shape of a prism, it is completely full of

             water. Colin uses a pump to empty the pond. The level goes

             down by 20 cm in the first 30 min.

To find - Work put how many minutes Colin has to wait for the pond

               to completely empty.

Proof -

Given that,

Height of prism = 1 m

Also,

Base of the prism is trapezium and

Sides of the trapezium are 0.6 m and 1.4 m

Height of trapezium is 2 m

We know that,

Area of trapezium = \frac{1}{2}× (sum of sides)× height

                             =  \frac{1}{2}× (0.6 + 1.4)× 2

                             =  \frac{1}{2}× (2)× 2

                             =  2 m²

⇒Area of trapezium = 2 m²

Now,

Volume of prism = Area of trapezium × height of prism

                          = 2 m² × 1 m

                          = 2 m³

⇒Volume of prism = 2 m³

Now,

Given that the level goes down by 20 cm in the first 30 min

We know

100 cm = 1 m

⇒1 cm = \frac{1}{100} m = 0.01 m

⇒20 cm = 20×0.01 m = 0.2 m

⇒The level goes down by 0.2 m in the first 30 min.

Also,

we know that height of water = height of prism = 1 m

So, the remaining water left in the pond = 1 m - 0.2 m = 0.8 m

Also,

Volume of Remaining water = Area of trapezium × height

                                           = 2 m² × 0.8 m

                                           = 1.6 m³

⇒Volume of Remaining water = 1.6 m³

Now,

Volume of emptied water = Total Volume - Volume of Remaining water

                                       = 2 m³ - 1.6 m³

                                       = 0.4 m³

⇒Volume of emptied water = 0.4 m³

Now,

0.4 m³ water will be empty in 30 minutes

⇒ 1 m³ water will be empty in \frac{30}{0.4} = 75 minutes

⇒1.6 m³ water will be empty in 1.6 × 75 = 120 minutes

∴ we get

The remaining water is empty in 120 minutes

So,

Total pond is empty in 120 + 30 minutes

⇒Total pond is empty in 150 minutes

This is urgent, please answer!!
Serhud [2]
Answer: 23.4

Explanation: make the volumes equal each other with the ? as x. Then solve.
(12)(18)(32.5)=(25)(12)x
Divide both sides by 12
(18)(32.5)=25x
Solve left side
585=25x
Divide by 25
x=23.4
