1500 soldiers arrive at a training camp. A few soldiers desert the camp. The drill sergeants divide the remaining soldiers into
1 answer:
Answer:
The number of deserters is 34.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate the number of desertors in a group of 1500 soldiers.
The sergeant divides in groups of different numbers and count the lefts over.
If he divide in groups of 5, he has on left over. The amount of soldiers grouped has to end in 5 or 0, so the total amount of soldiers has to end in 1 or 6.
If he divide in groups of 7, there are three left over. If we take 3, the number of soldiers gruoped in 7 has to end in 8 or 3. The only numbers bigger than 1400 that end in 8 or 3 and have 7 as common divider are 1428 and 1463.
If we add the 3 soldiers left over, we have 1431 and 1466 as the only possible amount of soldiers applying to the two conditions stated until now.
If he divide in groups of 11, there are three left over. We can test with the 2 numbers we stay:
As only 1466 gives a possible result (no decimals), this is the amount of soldiers left.
The deserters are 34:

Answer:
The absolute change in the height of the water is 9.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
--- length
--- width
--- height
--- the volume removed
Required
The absolute change in the height of the water
First, calculate the base area (b):
The height of the water that was removed is:
<em /><em> i.e. the volume of the water removed divided by the base area</em>
The absolute change in height is:
<u>Answer-</u>
Set of constraints to model the problem are,
<u>Solution-</u>
<em>x = the number of lawns weeded by Gwen,</em>
<em>y = the number of dogs walked by Fabio.</em>
1.
As, Gwen charges $12 each time she weeds a yard and Fabio charges $9 each time he walks a dog,
They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station, means they need $510 or more than $510.
The equation for this is,
2.
The number of dog walks that Fabio has scheduled is no more than twice the number of yards Gwen has scheduled to weed, means
y must be less than or equal to 2x.
The equation for this is,
3.
Fabio will walk at least 25 dogs, means y must be greater than of equal to 25.
The equation for this is,
Answer:
B (Base surface area) = 16
P (Perimeter of the base) = 16 m
H (Height) = 6 m
L (Not sure what L means. I assume it's the slant height??) = 6.32 m
LA (I assume lateral surface area) =
SA (I assume total surface area) =
V (volume) =
