Respuesta de (-0.5)²

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$(-0.5)^2$

we know that

$-0.5=-\frac{1}{2}$

substitute

$(-\frac{1}{2})^2=(-\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})$

Remember that

$(-1)(-1)=1\\(-1)(1)=(-1)$

$(-\frac{1}{2})(-\frac{1}{2})=\frac{1}{4}=0.25$

Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.If she keeps picking strawberries at the same rate, how many gallon

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

3 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Jen picked 3/4 of a gallon of strawberries in a half an hour.

Let us convert our given time in minutes.

1 hour= 60 minutes.

1/2 hour= 30 minutes.

So 2 hours= 120 minutes.

Let us find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes by dividing 3/4 by 30.

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{30}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{3}{4*30}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=\frac{1}{40}$

Now let us multiply 1/40 by 120 to find the number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 120 minutes(2 hours).

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=120*\frac{1}{40}$

$\text{The number of gallons of strawberries picked by Jen in 30 minutes}=3$

Therefore, Jen picked 3 gallons of strawberries in 2 hours.
