2 1/5 hours on homework for math = 2.2

Science homework took 1.1 hours to complete.

2.2+1.1= 3.3

7/8 of an hour is 50 minutes because we know that an hour is 60 minutes and every 10 minutes is a number for the numerator, if that makes sense.

3.3 of an hour plus 50 minutes, would equal 3.8 since the 3 after the point would be minutes. To convert into hours, since an hour is 60 minutes, we have 4 hours and 20 minutes he spent on homework over the weekend. That would be your answer! Hope this helped.

Answer: He spent 5 hours and 13.5 on homework

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Time spent on math homework: </em>2 1/5 hours
  • <em>Since he spends on science homework half of the time (1/2) he spent on math</em>  : 2 1/5 x 1/2 = 1 1/10  hours
  • <em>Time spent on English and social studies homework</em>:  2 1/5 x 7/8 = (5x2+1)/5 x 7/8 = 11/5 x 7/8 = 77/40  hours

Now, we simply add all the results:

2 1/5 + 1 1/10 +77/40= 2 8/40 + 1 4/40 +77 /40 = 3 89/40  

Simplifying:

3 +40/40 + 40/40 +9/40 = 3+1+1+9/40 = 5 9/40

Since 60 minutes = 1 hour

9/40 x60 = 13.5 minutes

He spent 5 hours and 13.5 on homework

A population of bacteria begins with 1500 bacteria and grows to 4500 in one hour.
dezoksy [38]

The function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is; P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

<h3>How to calculate Exponential Growth?</h3>

The formula for exponential growth is;

P = P₀e^(rt)

where;

P = current population at time t

P₀ = starting population

r = rate of exponential growth/decay

t = time after start

Thus, from our question we have;

4500 = 1500 * e^(r * 1)

4500/1500 = e^r

e^r = 3

In 3 = r

r = 1.0986

Thus, the function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is;

P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

For the culture to double, then;

P/P₀ = 2. Thus;

e^(1.0986t) = 2

In 2 = 1.0986t

t = 0.6931/1.0986

t = 0.631 hours

A bus trip takes 1.5 hours. By plane, the same trip takes 30 minutes. How
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

2 times faster

Step-by-step explanation:

because the plane takes one hour less than the bus and 60 min equal a hour and 30 plus 30 equal 60 which is a hour so then it would be 2 times as faster because it is 30 twice to equal the 60
