Mathematics

Answer:

2 metric tons in an hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to do this is to convert all the fractions to decimals. The problem starts out looking like this.

Formula

Rate = Tons removed / hours

Tons Removed = 1/4 metric ton

Time taken = 1/8 hour

\text{rate = }\frac{\frac{1}{4}} {\frac{1}{8}}

Rather than doing it with fractions, it is much easier to do it with decimals

1/4 = 0.25

1/8 = 0.125

Now what you get is rate = 0.25 / 0.125 = 2

So 2 metric tons can be removed in an hour

May runs around a 4 m track at a consistent speed of 250 m/min. how many minutes does it take me to complete for lapse of the tr
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

<u>It takes May 6 minutes and 24 seconds to run 4 laps and 1 minute and 36 seconds per lap</u>

Statement and question:

May runs around a 400-meter track at a constant speed of 250 meters per minute. How many minutes does it take May to complete 4 laps of the track?

Source:

Previous question that can be found at brainly

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Speed of May = 250 meters per minute

Length of the track = 400 meters

2. How many minutes does it take May to complete 4 laps of the track?

Let's answer the question calculating the total distance and the time it took Mary to run around the track, this way:

Total distance = 4 * 400 = 1,600 meters

Time it takes May to run 1,600 meters = 1,600/250

Time it takes May to run 1,600 meters = 6.4 minutes

<u>6.4 minutes = 6 minutes + 0.4 * 60 seconds = 6 minutes and 24 seconds</u>

<u>Time it takes May to run one lap = 6.4/4 = 1.6</u>

<u>1.6 minutes = 1 minute + 0.6 * 60 seconds = 1 minute and 36 seconds</u>

Answer:

Q1 m² +10m+ 21

Q2

a) 3 (2 +3x)

b) (y+4) (y-4)

c) (2p-5) (p+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1. expand and simplify (m+7)(m+3)

solution

(m+7)(m+3)

m² + 7m+ 3m + 21

m² +10m+ 21

Q2 Factorize  

a) 6 +9x

Answer  

Taking 3 common  

3 (2 +3x)

b) y² -16

answer  

y² -4                as formula a² –b² = (a+b)(a-b)

  (y+4) (y-4)

c) 2p² –p-10

So according to quadratic equation  

a=2  b=-1   c=-10         a x c =-20     b=-1

we need two number whose product is -20 and sum is -1

-5 x 4 = -20         -5 +4 = -1

2p² –p-10 = 2p² + 4p-5p-10

            =2p (p +2) -5 (p+2)

          = (2p-5) (p+2)

please mark me brainliest  :D

Answer:

C or h - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(a + h) = a + h - 1

f(a) = a - 1

a + h - 1 - a - 1 = h - 2
