Answer:
Total eclipse was
minutes longer than in 2005.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given in the question that total eclipse in 2003 lasted
minutes and in 2005 it lasted 3/8 of a minute.
We have to calculate how much longer did it last in 2003.
So we have to subtract the duration in 2003 by duration in 2005
Total time taken in 2003- total time taken in 2005





minutes
Answer: 3/4
Step-by-step explanation: Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the divison sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
So here, 3/8 divided by 1/2 can be rewritten as 3/8 × 2/1.
Now we are simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the numerators and we multiply across the denominators.
So we have 3 × 2 which is 6 and 8 × 1 which is 8. Since 6/8 is not in lowest terms, we divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 8 which is 2 and we get the equivalent fraction 3/4.
Therefore, 3/8 divided by 1/2 is 3/4.
Answer:
The ships are 66 meters apart.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the sake of convenience, let us label ships A and B
As shown in the figure, the distances to the ships from right triangles.
The distance to the ship A is
and it is given by



And the distance to the ship B is
and is given by



Therefore, the distance
between the ships A and B is

In other words, the ships are 66 meters apart.
The complementary event is that a customer does not enter the store within one minute of closing, and the probability is 75%.
The complement is found by subtracting from 100%; 100-25 = 75%.
