Answer:

0.875 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of plastic water bottles bought in the United States every day

= 140,000,000

Length of each bottle = 0.25 meters

Total Length of the plastic bottles = 0.25 X 140,000,000 =35,000,000 meters

Length of the equator around =  40,000,000 meters

Therefore, the number of times the earth's equator can be circled by a line of plastic bottles used in the United States every day

= 35,000,000/40,000,000

=0.875 times

It means the length of plastic bottles will go around 87.5% of the equator.

How many solutions does this equation have? d − 3 = –3 + d
Tomtit [17]
It has an infinite amount of solutions.

Explanation:
d-3 = -3+d which can be arranged as: d-3=d-3
Since they are equal to each other, no matter what number you input, your solution will be the same which means that there are an infinite amount of solutions. Let’s put this to the test and put in 5 for d. 5-3=5-3 is 2=2. They are equal to each other which means: infinite solution.

Find the sum of the least and greatest two digit prime numbers whose digits are also prime?
adoni [48]
First, we need to know the smallest two digit prime number. It can't start with one, since one is not prime, so it must start with two (or be in the twenties.) 20 is divisible by 2, 4, 5, and 10, 21 is divisible by 7 and 3, 22 is divisible by 2 and 11, so the smallest prime number is 23.

Now we need the largest two-digit prime number. It cannot start with nine or eight, since both are composite, so it must start with seven (be in the seventies.) 79 is the largest integer in the seventies and also happens to be prime, so there's our largest two digit prime number.

now we just need to add them for the sum:
23+79=102

hope I helped, and let me know if you have any questions :D

A dog walker charges a flat rate of $6 per walk plus an hourly rate of $30. How much does the dog walker charge for a 45 minute
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The function notation is given as:

$6 + $30 × x

f(x) = $6 + 30x

The dog walker charges $28.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the hourly rate be represented by x

A dog walker charges a flat rate of $6 per walk plus an hourly rate of $30.

The function notation is given as:

$6 + $30 × x

F(x) = $6 + 30x

How much does the dog walker charge for a 45 minute walk?

We have to convert 45 minutes to 1 hour

60 minutes = 1 hour

45 minutes = x

x = 45/60

x = 3/4(hour)

Putting that in the function notation:

f(x) = $6 + 30x

x = 3/4

$6 + 30(3/4)

$6 + $22.5

= $28.50

Therefore, the dog walker charges $28.50

Can someone please solve 7???
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 3 = 8 parts

Divide the total area by 8 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

1624 ÷ 8 = 203 cm² ← value of 1 part of ratio, thus

Area of B = 3 × 203 = 609 cm² → A
