In order for the ball to be used in the game, it must be able to meet the minimum and maximum weight requirements. These are the limits of the weight of the ball. If it exceeds the maximum limit of 16 ounces or below the minimum limit of 14 ounces, the ball will not be approved.
So, by adding 1.5 ounces, that would mean that the initial weight of the ball did not reach the minimum limit. The initial weight of the ball, denoted as x, have two possible values. The first value is the initial weight plus added with 1.5 ounces would reach 14 ounces.
x + 1.5 = 14
x = 12.5 ounces
The other scenario is when the initial weight is added to reach the maximum requirement of 16 ounces
x + 1.5 = 16
x = 14.5 ounces
From both answer, we could conclude that the initial weight has to be 12.5 ounces. If the initial weight were 14.5 ounces to begin with, there should be no need for air. It cans till be approved to be used.
Answer:
A.) 5 x 2.80 B.) 100
Step-by-step explanation:
14/2.80=5 which is how many gallons
5 x 20 = 100 for the miles
- you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
- Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
<h3>How many buses would it take to carry only the boys?</h3>
We know that there are (3 + 1/2) groups, such that each group fill one bus.
2/5 of the students are boys, then the number of groups that we can make only with boys is:
(2/5)*(3 + 1/2) = 6/5 + 1/5 = 7/5 = 5/5 + 2/5 = 1 + 2/5
Then you can make one and a little less than a half of a group, which means that you need 1 and 2/5 of a buss to transport the boys, rounding that to the a whole number, you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
<h3>How far is Mark from his house?</h3>
The original distance is:
D = (2 + 3/4) miles.
But Mark only covers 2/3 of that distance, then we have:
d = (2/3)*D = (2/3)*(2 + 3/4) miles = (4/3 + 2/4) miles
d = (4/3 + 1/2) miles = (8/6 + 3/6) miles = (1 + 5/6) miles
Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
