First find the common denominator
5/8=25/40
2/5=16/40
3/4=30/40
Next you can cross multiply
25/40=x/10 pounds
16/40=x/10 pounds
30/40=x/10 pounds
First
25(10)/40= 6.25 pounds
16(10)/40= 4pounds
30(10)/40= 7.5 pounds
These are the amounts that were left in the bag
10-6.25=3.75
10-4=6
10-7.5=2.5
3.75+6+2.5= 12.25
All together they put 12.25 pounds of soil in the flower bed
Answer:
<h3>2min/customer</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
If 8 customers entered a store over the course of 16 minutes, then;
8 customers = 16 minutes.
The rate at which the customers are entering is expressed as;
Rate = Time (in minutes)/amount of customers;
Given
Time = 16 minutes
Amount of customers = 8 customers
Rate = 16min/8customers
Rate = 2min/customer
Hence the rate at which the customers entering the store in minutes per customer is 2min/customer.

Answer:
0.016
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance traveled by the balloon in every minute makes an arithmetic sequence with a first term equal to 40 ft and common difference equal to 20. The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is calculated by,
an = a1 + (n - 1) x d
Substituting,
an = 40 + (15 - 1) x 20 = 320
Thus, the answer is letter B. 320 feet.
