Answer:

<h2>4gallons per minute</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

the unit rate is the amount of water per unit of time

Given data

4/5 gallon to decimal= 0.8gallon

1/5 minute decimal= 0.2 minute

We are told that 0.8 gallons run in 0.2 minute

                      then x gallon will run in 1 minute

cross muliply we have

x=0.8/0.2

x=4

this means that in one minutes 4gallons will run in the faucet

The unit rate is 4gallons per minute

Jack can swim 3 laps in 7 minutes.<br><br> At this rate, how many laps can Jack swim in 28 minutes?
Gekata [30.6K]
Jack can swim 12 laps in 28 minutes. 28 minutes is 4 times greater than the time it took him to swim 3 laps. With 28 minutes he should therefore be able to swim 4 times as many laps. 3 times 4 equals 12

The length of a rectangle is four times the width minus three. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 64 meters, what is the lengt
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

L = 25 m

Step-by-step explanation:

L = 4W - 3

perimeter = 2(L + W)

64 = 2(4W - 3 + W)

divide both sides by 2:

32 = 5W - 3

add 3 to each side:

5W = 35

divide both sides by 5:

W =7

L = 4(7) - 3 = 25

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

-$0.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the expected value of playing the game once

Expected value= [18/(18+18+2) x $5)]- [20/(18+18+2) x $5]

Expected value= ($18/38 x $5) - (20/38 x $5)

Expected value= ($2.37-$2.63)

Expected value= -$0.26

Therefore the expected value of playing the game once is -$0.26
