The first thing I would do is divide the rate by 1 1/4, to get the amount per hour which gives us this:
20 pages per 1 hour
Now, that we know he reads 20 pages per hour, we just divide 230 by 20 to find the amount of hours. Our answer comes out to 11.5 hours.
So to find the answer you would use the formally 1/2bh
1/2(3.5)(1.5)
which give you 2.625
<em><u>Complete Question:</u></em>
A colony of flowers is pollinated by hummingbirds and sunbirds. Let H represents the number of hummingbirds and S represent the number of sunbirds that must pollinate the colony so it can survive until next year.
6H+ 4S> 74
This year, 8 hummingbirds pollinated the colony. What is the least number of sun birds that must pollinate the colony to ensure that it will survive until next year?
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
The least number of sun birds is 7
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given inequality is:
6H + 4S > 74
Where,
H is the number of hummingbirds
S is the number of sunbirds
This year, 8 hummingbirds pollinated the colony
Substitute H = 8 in given inequality
6(8) + 4S > 74
48 + 4S > 74
Subtract 48 from both sides
48 + 4S - 48 > 74 - 48
4S > 26
Divide both sides by 4
S > 6.5
Hence the least number of sun birds is 7
Linear scale factor =1/2
volume scale factor=(1/2)³=1/8
the volume of the larger figure will be:
volume=length*width*height
volume=16×15×6
volume=1440 cubic inches
thus volume of the small sink will be:
1/8×1440
=180 cubic inches
Negative 3.14
Times that by Pi which is 3.14 and then multiply by the base number and you will get the correct answer
