In 1970, a record 1.5 inches of rain fell in one minute at Brasse Terre, Guadalupe in the Caribbean. At this rate how much rain fell in 3 seconds or 0.05 of a minute? A 3 inches... B 0.075 inch... C 0.75 inch... D 30 inch. Pick one. Evan chose D as the correct answer. How did he get that answer?

Answer:

0.075 inches

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given.

The rain fall rate is 1.5 inches per minute.

How much rain fall in 3 second or 0.05 of minute?

First we find rain fall rate in one second.

1.5 inch/min=\frac{1.5}{60} inch/second\\=0.025 inch/second

So, 0.025 inches of rain fall in one second.

Therefore, the rain fall in 3 second is

= 3\times 0.025\\=0.075 inches

The rain fall in 3 second is 0.075 inches.

If you chose option D is correct

If the rain fall is continue to 20 min at the rate of 1.5 inches per min, then the rain fall will be 30 inches.

The rain fall in 3 second is 0.075 inches.

Factor x3-2x2-9x+18 completely if(x+3) is a factor
Charra [1.4K]

Factor x^3 -2x^2-9x+18

= x^2(x - 2) - 9(x - 2)

= (x^2 - 9)(x -2)

= (x + 3 )(x - 3)(x - 2)

So (x+3) is a factor

Write 85% as a fraction in simplest form.
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

85% can easily be written as 85/100 and this is true, but we have to simplify to the simplest form.

An easy way to simplify is to divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

The GCF of 85 and 100 is 5.

85 ÷ 5 = 17

100 ÷ 5 = 20

We can no longer simplify 17/20 because 17 is prime so your final answer is 17/20!

Hope you have a good day and luck in finding good memes!
