2/5 + 3/8 - Adding fractions
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:31/40

Step-by-step explanation:

To add you have to have a common denominator. To get that you can multiply each fraction by one in different ways. 2/5 *8/8= 16/40 and 3/8* 5/5= 15/40 and then add those two to give you 31/40.

Your friend's swimming pool is in the shape of a rectangular prism, with a length of 25 feet, a width of 8 feet, and a height of
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Part a) V=1,000\ ft^{3}

Part b) h=5\ ft

Part c) =718\ gal

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) What is the volume of your friend's swimming pool?

we know that

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

V=LWH

substitute the values

V=(25)(8)(5)=1,000\ ft^{3}

Part b) Your swimming pool is in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter of 16 feet and has the same volume as your friend's pool. What is the height of your pool?

we know that

The volume of a cylinder is equal to

V=\pi r^{2} h

we have

V=1,000\ ft^{3}

r=16/2=8\ ft ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute and solve for h

1,000=\pi (8)^{2} h

h=1,000/(64 \pi)

h=1,000/(64*3.14)=5\ ft

Part c) While you were on vacation, 6 inches of water evaporated from your pool. About how many gallons of water evaporated from your pool?

remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

so

6\ in=6/12=0.5\ ft

Find the volume of water  for h=5-0.5=4.5\ ft

V=(3.14)(8)^{2}(4.5)=904.32\ ft^{3}

so

the volume of water evaporated is equal to

1,000\ ft^{3}-904.32\ ft^{3}=95.68\ ft^{3}

convert to gallons

remember that

1\ ft^{3}=7.5\ gal

so

95.68\ ft^{3}=95.68*7.5=718\ gal

You invest $5000 in an account at 5.5% per year simple interest. How much will you have in the account at the beginning of the 6
NeX [460]

Answer:

The amount in the account in the  beginning of the 6th year is $6375 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Simple\ interest = \frac{Principle\times Rate\ times Time}{100}

As given

You invest $5000 in an account at 5.5% per year simple interest.

Principle = $ 5000

Rate = 5.5 %

Time = 5 years

(As calculate amount in the account for beginning of 6th year.)

Putting all the values in the formula

Simple\ interest = \frac{5000\times 5.5\times 5}{100}

Simple\ interest = 50\times 5.5\times 5

Simple interest = $ 1375

Amount =  Principle + Simple interest

Putting values in the above formula

Amount =  $5000 + $1375

Amount = $ 6375

Therefore the amount in the account in the  beginning of the 6th year is $ 6375 .
