Answer:

There is a 0.36% Chance of 1 or fewer in every 24 matches being flawed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we need to know what 1/10 of 5 is. It is 0.5.

You then need to multiply 24 by 1.5 to get 36. We then need to  divide that by 100 to get a percentage and we end up with 0.36%

Here is an explanation of how to get percentages: https://www.mathsisfun.com/converting-fractions-percents.html

New streetlights will be installed along a section of the highway. The posts for the streetlights will be 7.5 m tall and made of
SIZIF [17.4K]
First, we determine the volumes of the posts may it be cylindrical in shape or rectangular prism. 

(A) cylindrical:
                         ( π(26.7/100)² - π(24.2/100)²)*(7.5) = 0.3 m³
(B) rectangular prism:
                          (40/100)²(7.5) - (35/100)²(7.5) = 0.28125 m³

Then, we calculate for the amount of substance
 (A) cylindrical:   (0.3 m³)(2700 kg/m³) = 810 kg
 (B) rectangular prism : (0.28125 m³)(2700 kg/m³) = 759.375 kg

Then, calculate for the costs
 (A) (810 kg)($0.38/kg) = $307.8
 (B) (759.375 kg)($0.38/kg) = $288.56

Thus, the answer for A is rectangular post 
B. About $19.24 can be saved.

A soccer ball is kicked toward the goal. The height of the ball is modeled by the function h(t) = - 16t^2 + 48t where t equals t
andriy [413]

Answer:

x = 3/2

The axis of symmetry is located at the vertex,

which is the also the highest point in this problem...

the x component of the vertex can be calculated as -b/2a = -48/-32 = 24/16 = 6/4 = 3/2

x = 3/2

HELP ME WITH MATH!!! So basically I have to figure out how many hours that is between the times.
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: (I think its correct)

1: 8 hours and 30 minutes

2: 8 hours

3: 8 hours and 50 minutes

4: 8 hours and 45 minutes

5: 7 hours and 48 minutes

6: 11 hours 13 minutes

7: 11 hours 31 minute

Step-by-step explanation: (Im bad at explaining it)

So I got this by using counting the hours in between the times and taking out the minutes in them,then subtracting the time they took the fall asleep. Every time that has minutes I add that, if it is over 60 minutes I subtract 60 minutes. So like 30+35=65 | 65-60=5.

Lets do a problem: 9:15 (bed) | 10:30(woke up) | 30 minutes (fall asleep)

So we count how many hours in each time and we take out the minutes, so 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, so on and so forth.

So in between the hours its was 13. Then we add the minutes (15+30)

15+30=45. So the answer is 13 hours and 45 minutes, but we got to subtract 13 hours and 45 minutes which is 13 hours and 15 minutes.

Final Answer: 13 hours and 15 minutes.
