6 and 30. 6 is 1/5 of thirty. If the first number is x,that means that the second number is 5x. Combine like terms. 6x = 36. 36/6 = 6. x = 6. The first number is 6. the second number is 5x. Replace x with 6. 5 * 6 = 30. 30 is the second number.

Find the unit rate for each Olivia and Ryan:

2 2/5 km       15       36 km
------------ * ------- = ------------ = 3.6 km/hr (Olivia)
 2/3 hr          15        10 hr


4 1/2 km          2          9 km
------------- * --------- = --------- = 3 km/hr (Ryan)
1 1/2 hr           2           3 hr

Olivia walked 0.6 km/hr faster than did Ryan.

Whats 0.55% as a mixed number and a decimal?
xxTIMURxx [149]
Mixed number is a natural number plus a proper fraction
a mixed number, is normally more than 1

anyway
percent means parstt out of 100
0.55%=0.55/100=0.055/10=0.0055/1=0.0055

it is 55/10000 as a fraction or 0 and 55/10000 aas a mixed number
decimal it is 0.0055

A cone-shaped paper drinking cup is to be made to hold 33 cm3 of water. find the height and radius of the cup that will use the
alekssr [168]
The height and radius that will give us the smallest amount of paper, should have should have the perfect dimension, in that the diameter should be equal to the height. thus let the diameter be x, the height will be x and the radius will be x/2
thus the volume of the cone will be:
V=1/3πr^2h
=1/3*π*(x/2)^2*x
=0.262x^3
hence the value of x will be:
33=0.262x^3
x^3=125.95
x=(125.95)^(1/3)
x=5.0126=5.01 cm
thus the diameter=height=5.01cm
