When completing an online shopping transaction, a typical shopper takes 5 seconds to select each product and another 60 seconds

natulia [17]

4 products are being purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Time taken to select each product = 5 seconds

Time taken to complete check out process = 60 seconds

Total time taken for a transaction = 80 seconds

Let,

x be the number of products purchased.

Time taken for each product*Number of product + Time for check out process = total process

$5x+60=80\\5x=80-60\\5x=20$

Dividing both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{20}{5}\\x=4$

4 products are being purchased.

Answer:

B.166 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

To handle this problem better, we can separate the fraction and integer portions to look at the whole situation better.

First, let's only look at the integers. Anthony flew up his drone 125 feet (translating to +125), allowed it to drop 14 feet (translating to -14), and then flew it up for 55 feet (translating to +55). Hence, only considering the integers, the total change in the drone's position would be (125 - 14 + 55) feet, which equates to 166 feet.

You'd probably have already noticed this answer is quite close to B. 166 11/12 feet, but let's keep on going for now.

On the fraction part, he flew his drone up 1/2 feet, allowed it to drop 1/3 feet, and then flew it up for 3/4 feet, translating to (1/2 - 1/3 + 3/4) feet.

Hence, after making all fractions share the same denominator, that same equation would change to (6/12 - 4/12 + 9/12) feet, which equals to 11/12 feet.

Finally, the total magnitude of the drone's position would be (166 + 11/12) feet, which is equal to B.166 11/12 feet.

Hope this helped!

Find the value of each expression.<br> 6b2 – 5 if b = 3

snow_tiger [21]

The answer should be 31, if I’m doing this correctly.
6(3)2-5 (multiply 6 and 3, you get 18)
18(2)-5 (multiply 18 and 2, you get 36)
36-5 (subtract 36 and 5)
31

Kyla used 550 grams of wool to knit a sweater, a hat, and a scarf. For the hat she used 5 times less wool than the sweater and 5

Brrunno [24]

This is the concept of algebra, to calculate the proportion of wool in each item we proceed as follows;
Let the amount of wool used for hat be x
amount of wool in sweater will be 5x
the amount of wool used in scarf will be x-5
therefore the total amount of wool will be:
x+5x+(x-5)=550
x+5x+x-5=550
7x-5=550
7x=550+5
7x=555
hence;
x=555/7
x=79
the amount used in hat x=79g
amount used in sweater 5x=395g
amount used in scarf=79-5=74g
