First we figure out how many words in total she has to read.
This would be the (number of pages) times (number of words per page).

820 * 350 = 287000
so she has to read 287000 words

we divide this by 110 to get how long it would take for her to finish (in minutes)
287000 / 110 = 2609.09090909....

then since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we divide that number by 60
2609.09090909... / 60 = 43.48484848...

Therefore it would take her about 43.5 hours to complete her assignment.

Answer:

43.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Courtney needs to set aside at least 43.5 hours. We need to figure out many words she needs to read in total.So we need to do 820 * 350287000.We then need to divide by 110 so we can the time in minutes. 2609.09090909....Then we divide the number 60 since the question is asking us for hours. Therefore it would take her about 43.5 hours to complete her assignment

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Alice: 20 coins, Ben: 16 coins, and Carlos: 4 coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the dive results in 40 gold coins.

We know that:

Alice: $7,600 Ben: $5,900 Carlos: $1,400.

So they have $ 14900 in total.

Now we will divide that money by 40.

x=\frac{14900}{40}\\\\x=372.5

So 1 gold coin costs $ 372.5. Now we will calculate how much they can get for the money they have.

A=\frac{7600}{372.5}=20.4\\\\B=\frac{5900}{372.5}=15.8\\\\C=\frac{1400}{372.5}=3.75\\

We conclude that:

Alice: 20 coins, Ben: 16 coins, and Carlos: 4 coins.

-(x+3) = 2x-6 what is x
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first you make sure to multiply the parenthesis by the negative so then it would be,

-x-3=2x-6

Then you add the -3 from the right to the other side

so, -x=2x-3

Then you want all the X variables to one side so you subtract the 2x to both sides.

so, -3x=-3

divide both by -3

x=1

Sam the owl is looking down at a 24° angle from the top of a tree that is 10 ft tall, when he spots a bird on the ground. How fa
Liula [17]

Answer:

24.59 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance between Sam and the bird.

We have been given that am the owl is looking down at a 24° angle from the top of a tree that is 10 ft tall, when he spots a bird on the ground. We are asked to find the distance between Sam and the bird.

We can see from our attachment that Sam, the bird and angle of depression forms a right triangle with respect to ground. We can see that side 10 ft is opposite side and and side x is hypotenuse for the 24 degree angle.

\text{sin}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

\text{sin}(24^{\circ})=\frac{10}{x}

x=\frac{10}{\text{sin}(24^{\circ})}

x=\frac{10}{0.406736643076}

x=24.5859333557

x\approx 24.59

Therefore, the bird is approximately 24.59 feet away from Sam.
