Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The total capacity of the trailer is 1,050 kg.

An 82-kg crate is already loaded on the trailer.

We subtract 82 kg from 1,050 kg to find out the amount of weight still available.

1,050 kg - 82 kg = 968 kg

The trailer can still carry another 968 kg.

Each additional crate weighs 40 kg.

We divide 968 kg by 40 kg to calculate the number of crates that can still be loaded.

(968 kg)/(40 kg) = 24.2

Since we cannot place 0.2 of a crate, we round 24.2 down to 24.

Working alone, kali can pick forty bushels of apples in 15 hours,l. One day her friend Natalie helped her and it only took 6 hou
cluponka [151]

Answer:

The time it will take Natalie to pick the forty bushels alone is 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The time it takes Kali to pick forty bushels of apples alone = 15 hours

The time it takes Kali and Natalie to pick forty bushels = 6 hours

The rate at which Kali picks bushels = 40/15 bushels per hour  = 8/3 bushels per hour  

Let x represents the rate at which Natalie picks bushels, we have;

8/3 × 6 + x × 6 = 40

x × 6 = 40 - 8/3 × 6 = 24

x = 24/6 = 4

Therefore;

The rate at which Natalie picks the bushels of apples = 4 bushels/hour

The time it will take Natalie to pick the forty bushels alone = (40 bushels)/(4 bushels/hour) = 10 hours.

The probability is (1/6)^5 power. Since the locks are independent of each other, you can multiply the probabilities together. There are 6 possible numbers for each lock and there are 5 locks. So the probability is (1/6)^5 power.<span />
