We have been given that during one period extreme cold, the average daily temperature decreased 1\frac{1}{2} degree F each day. We are asked to find number of days it will take for the temperature to decrease by 9 degree F.

First of all we will convert our mixed fraction into improper fraction.

1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}

Now we will divide total temperature change (9) by average daily temperature change (\frac{3}{2}) to find number of days.

9\div\frac{3}{2}

Dividing a number by a fraction is same as multiplying the number by reciprocal of the fraction.

9\cdot\frac{2}{3}

3\cdot2=6

Therefore, it will take 6 days for the temperature to decrease by 9 degree F.

There are three dials on a combination lock. Each dial can be set to one of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 The three digit number 553
Anika [276]

The number of different three-digit numbers that can be set for the combination lock is 125

<h3>How to determine the number of different locks?</h3>

The digits are given as

Digit = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Each digit can be repeated on the number lock.

So, the individual digit of the lock can be any of the 5 digits.

So, we have:

Locks = 5 * 5 * 5

Evaluate

Locks = 125

Hence, the number of different three-digit numbers that can be set for the combination lock is 125
