Answer:

36 minutes past 1, or 1:36

Step-by-step explanation:

A watch normally has an hour hand that does one revolution in 12 hours.

It takes 1 hour to go from the 1 o'clock position to the 2 o'clock position.

Since 1 hour equals 60 minutes, it takes 60 minutes to go from the 1 o'clock position to the 2 o'clock position.

The hour hand is 3/5 of the way from 1 to 2, so the number of minutes past 1 o'clock is 3/5 of 60 minutes.

3/5 of 60 minutes =

= 3/5 * 60 minutes

= 3/5 * 60/1 minutes

= 180/5 minutes

= 36 minutes

The time is 36 minutes past 1, or 1:36

Answer:f(t)=4/9t — 12

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4 is being multiplied by t first then divided by 9 not by 4/9 so there shouldn’t be any parentheses.

2. 12 is being subtracted from this so it should be 4/9t—12.

3. Final answer: f(t)= 4/9t — 12

Answer:

B. BC ≅ LM

Step-by-step explanation:

BC corresponds to LM. These are the only two sides without the hash marks that represent congruence. If the marks were there to indicate that the sides are congruent, then the triangles could be proved congruent by SSS.

Adam is building a rectangular planter without a top the planter will be 7 feet wide 5 feet wide, 5 feet long, and 9 inches high
Tom [10]
Answer: The surface area of the planter will be 120.5 square feet.

In our shape, we will have 5 sides. The base and the four sides going up from each edge of the base.

The base will be 7 x 5 = 35 square feet.

The front and back side will each be 7 x 0.75 = 5.25 square feet.

The left and right side will each be 5 x 0.75 = 3.75 square feet.

If we add up the 5 faces we get:
35 + 5.25 + 5.25 + 3.75 + 3.75 = 120.5 square feet
