A hostel having strength of 300 students requires on an average 36000 L of water per day. It has a tank measuring 10 m × 8 m × 9
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The water in the tank filled to capacity lasts 20 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students in the hostel = 300

The average need of water  per day = 36,000 L

The dimensions of the tank =   10 m  ×   8 m   ×   9 m

Now, the capacity of the tank = LENGTH X WIGHT X HEIGHT

     = 10 m   ×   8 m   ×   9 m =  720 cubic meters

Now, 1m^{3}   = 1,000L

⇒720 m^{3}   = 720  \times  1,000L  = 720,000L

So, the capacity of the tank = 720,000 L

and the average usage of water by 300 students = = \frac{720,000 L}{36,000 L}  = 20

⇒\textrm{The number of days water lasts}  = \frac{\textrm{Total capacity of the tank}}{\textrm{Average need of water per day}}

or, number of days = 20

Hence,  the water in the tank filled to capacity lasts 20 days.

the probability that we encounter a green light at the corner of college and main is 0.35, a yellow light 0.04, and a red light
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

21% probability you will hit a green light on monday and a red light on tuesday

Step-by-step explanation:

When two events, A and B, are independent, we have that:

P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B)

In this problem, we have that:

Event A: Green light on monday.

Event B: Red light on tuesday.

The probability that we encounter a green light at the corner of college and main is 0.35

This means that P(A) = 0.35

The probability that we encounter a red light is 0.61:

This means that P(B) = 0.61

These events are independent, that is, the light color on Tuesday is independent of the color on Monday. So

P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B) = 0.35 \times 0.6 = 0.21

21% probability you will hit a green light on monday and a red light on tuesday

One number is 2 less than a second number. Twice the second number is 5 less than 3 times the first. Find the two numbers.
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

9 and 11  

Step-by-step explanation:

First number = x -2

Second number = x

  and   2x = 3(x-2)  - 5

            2x = 3x - 6 - 5

             x = 11

              first number = 11-2 = 9
