Answer:

  A)  23

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of sandwiches will be ...

  (3 chests)(14 lunches/chest) = 42 lunches

The fraction that have ham sandwiches is 0.55, so the number is about ...

  (0.55)(42 lunches) = 23.1 lunches ≈ 23 lunches

About 23 lunches contain ham sandwiches.

A company policy requires that for every 30 employees, there must be 3 supervisors. If there are 267 supervisors at the company,
Alexus [3.1K]

267 supervisors will have 2670 employees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of employees.

Given,

3 supervisors = 30 employees

1 supervisor = \frac{30}{3}

1 supervisor = 10 employees

As one supervisor has 10 employees, 267 supervisors will have;

x = 267*10

x= 2670 employees

267 supervisors will have 2670 employees.

Answer:

Time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance is T = 192.12 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat = u

Speed of current = v

Let distance between A & B = 100 km

Time taken in downstream = 32 hours

u + v = 3.125 ------ (1)

Time taken in upstream = 48 hours

u - v = 2.084 ------- (2)

By solving equation (1) & (2)

u = 2.6045

v = 0.5205

Now the time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance

Because un powered raft travel with the speed of the current.

T = 192.12 hr

Therefore the  time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance is

T = 192.12 hr

Suppose that y varies directly as the square root of x, and that y=21 when x=361. What is y when x=247? (Round off your answer t
igomit [66]

Answer:

17.37

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely as the square root of x

Mathematically:

y = k.root x

We first find k here

To find k, we were made to know that y is 21 and x = 361

k = y/root.x

k = 21/root. 361

k = 21/19

now what is y when x = 247

From y = k.root x

y = 21/19 * root 247

y= 21/19 * 15.72

y = 17.37
