This is esay to do when you realize the the speed of mowing is addtive. This is if John mows at 1 lawn / (2/3) hour and Gerge mows at 1 lawn /  1hour, the total speed of mowing is:

1 / (2/3) + 1 = 3/2 + 1 = 5/2

=> 5/2 of lawn per hour

Now, the time is calcualted as the amount of lawn divided by the speed:

1 lawn / (5/2 lawn/hour) = 2/5 hour.

Answer: 2/5 of an hour.

The diagram shows the width and height of a table. Mr. Howell wants to build a table with the same ratio of width and height as
just olya [345]

Based on the diagram and the ratio of width and height in it, the width that Mr. Howell should make his table is 48 inches .

<h3>How wide should Mr. Howell's table be?</h3>

The width of the table in the diagram is 12 cm and the height is 6cm.

This means that the ratio of width to height is:

12 : 6

2 : 1

As Mr. Howell wants his table to be 24 inches high, the width of the table would be:

2 : 1

x  : 24

Cross-multiply to get:

x = 48 inches

Please help! I need help with part B if 1000 students were surveyed what would the probability be of how many plays sports?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

188 students would play sports, out of 1,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability that a random high school student plays a sport is 0.188 (150/800), which means for every 1 high school student 0.188 of them play a sport. Multiply 0.188x1,000 to get 188 students who play a sport.

Which number satisfies the inequality 9h + 15 &gt; 55?
zalisa [80]

When you say "Which number ...", I expect to see a list of choices at the
end of the question, and I get very upset when there's nothing there.

                                            9h + 15 > 55

Subtract  15  from each side:          9h > 40

Divide each side by  9 :                  <em>  h > 40/9</em>

Any number greater than (4 and 4/9) satisfies the inequality.
