5/8 = 2/3 the entire box
Half of 2/3 is 1/3, and 2/3 + 1/3 = 1
So find half of 5/8 and add it to 5/8.
5/8 * 1/2 = 5/16
5/8 + 5/16
Change 5/8 to a fraction with a denominator of 16:
10/16 + 5/16 = 15/16
So the original weight is 15/16 pounds.
Answer:
a) 
b) The pollution level at 4 o'clock in the afternoon is of 280 parts per million.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pollution level in the center of a city at 6 am is 30 parts per million and it grows in linear fashion by 25 parts per million every hour.
This means that the pollution in t hours after 6 am is given by:
, which is the answer to question a.
b. The pollution level at 4 o'clock in the afternoon
4 in the afternoon is 10 hours after 6 am, so this is y(10).

The pollution level at 4 o'clock in the afternoon is of 280 parts per million.
You will need to use the Pythagorean Theorem and plug in the varibles. The rope is the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed, and the 40ft water is the vertical leg, which leaves the ocean floor to be the horizontal leg.[a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}\] \[a^{2}+40^{2}=140^{2}\] Then solve for a. \[a^{2}=18000\] \[a=134.164\]
Answer:
The answer is 3.6 acres per day
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the unit rate divide the number of acres by number of days
∴ Unit rate =
÷ 
= (6 × 4 + 3)/4 ÷ (1 × 8 + 7)/8 = 27/4 ÷ 15/8
= 27/4 × 8/15 = 18/5 = 3.6 acres per day
