Answer:

The answer to your question is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total volume = 1 gallon

Water drank by the hiker = 1/2

Water drank by each of his friends = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the water that he gave to his friends

Water gave to his friends = 1 - 1/2

                                          = 1/2

2.- Calculate the amount of water each friend received.

            1/2 ÷ 4 = 1/8

3.- Conclusion

Each of the friends received 1/8 of the gallon.

What is the value of x to the nearest tenth?
jenyasd209 [6]
The segment of length x bisects the chord of length 19.2.
The diameter is 24, so the radius is 12.
You have a right triangle with hypotenuse 12, and one leg 19.2/2 = 9.6

9.6^2 + x^2 = 12^2

92.16 + x^2 = 144

x^2 = 51.84

x = 7.2

PLEASE, IT IS URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sasho [114]
Convert the timing into hours only:
11:15  = 11.25h
 9:45  = 9.75h
11:45 = 11.75h
 7:45  = 7.75h
10:45 = 10.75h

To find the average, we need to find the middle of these timing:
11.25 + 9.75 + 11.75 + 7.75 + 10.75 = 51.25

51.25 ÷ 5 = 10.25h = 10:15 am

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The average time it docks is 10:15 am.

Feliz [49]

We have been given that Tina designed an electric skateboard that has a speed of 4 miles per hour. Further we are given that in one hour it travels 4 miles, and in 2 hours it travels 8 miles.

We know that speed of any object can be found at any time, irrespective of it being a complete hour or a fractional hour. Therefore, speed of the electric skateboard is an example of continuous data.

The that in one hour it travels 4 miles, and in 2 hours it travels 8 miles have been given so that someone can easily confuse the speed of electric skateboard as a discrete data, but in actual speed of skateboard is a continuous data.
