The grade on the west side would be the vertical rise divided by the horizontal run or 525 divided by 800' or rounded off to 66% (a steep grade as in an underground mine a grade of 25% is considered very steep for vehicles to go up or conveyors to travel). On the east side the 40% grade was obtained by dividing the 525' vertical height by the 1300' run.

Answer:

21/32, or 66%; and 21/52, or 40%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Grade is the same as slope, which is rise/run.

For the west side, the rise is 525 and the run is 800; this gives us

525/800 = (525÷25)/(800/25) = 21/32 = 0.66 = 66%

For the east side, the rise is 525 and the run is 1300; this gives us

525/1300 = (525÷25)/(1300÷25) = 21/52 = 0.40 = 40%

How do you solve -6(a+8)
algol [13]
Use the distributive property.

This states that: a(b+c)= ab+ac

So,

-6*a= -6a and -6*8= -48

-6a+-48

This is the most you can simplify this problem.

I hope this helps!

A cashier can ring up 12 items per minute. How long will it take the cashier to ring up 72 items? ​
Talja [164]

Answer:

So it will take 6 minutes to ring up 72 items.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well this seems pretty simple just have to reads the question and know what to find.

So what we know :

A cashier can ring up 12 items per minute

So :

1 minute = 12 Minutes

And we have to find :

How long for 72 items

So since we know he can do 12 in a minute and it is asking how many minutes it will take for 72 we can divide.

So :

72 / 12

=

6

So it will take 6 minutes to ring up 72 items.

I hope this helps!

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to message me or comment. :)
