How many degrees does the hour hand move from 3:00 to 5:30?

1 answer:

4 0

now, keeping in mind that a circular clock has 360° total, and there are 12 hours labeled on it evenly, so the angle between each hour label is 360 ÷ 12 = 30.

so, from 3pm to 5pm, it moved by 30° + 30° = 60°.

from 5pm to 5:30, that's only half an hour, so it moved half 30°, or 15°.

60° + 15° = 75°.

JulijaS [17]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Assumptions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let x be the amount of 25% orange juice
Let y be the amount of 10% orange juice

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 15 litres of 13% orange juice
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 15

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 15 litres of juice is 13% orange juice
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.25x + 0.1y = 15 x 0.13
0.25x + 0.1y = 1.95

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rewrite the equations and solve for x and y
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 15 ----------------------- (Equation 1)
0.25x + 0.1y = 1.95 ----------- (Equation 2)

(Equation 1):
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y ----------- (Substitute into Equation 2)

0.25 (15 - y) + 0.1y = 1.95
3.75 - 0.25y + 0.1y = 1.95
0.15y = 1.8
y = 18 ÷ 0.15
y = 12 ------------- (substitute into Equation 1)

x + y = 15
x + 12 = 15
x = 15 - 12
x = 3

x = 3 and y = 12
