If a sprinkler waters 1 over 8 of a lawn in 1 over 4 hour, how much time will it take to water the entire lawn?

2 answers:

8 0

1/8 of the lawn in 1/4 of an hour. That mean you would need a whole hour to do 4/8 or 1/2 of the lawn. So you would need two hours to do the whole lawn.

Its two hours because 1/4 of an hour is 15 Minute so in 2 hours you have 8/8 because every 1/4 hour it's 1/8 and there are 4 1/4 in a hour

kirill [66]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{5}$ fraction of gallon is in each bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given condition: G.O is going on a hike in the mountains on a hot summer day he has 4/5 gallon of water that he split into 4 bottles.

⇒ in 4 bottle he has $\frac{4}{5}$ gallon of water.

Unit rates defined as when are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 3 feet per second or 4 miles per hour, then they are called unit rates.

By unit rate definition,

In 1 bottle he has = $\frac{4}{5} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{5}$ gallon of water.

therefore, the gallon in each bottle in fraction is, $\frac{1}{5}$

32 percent of the customers of a fast food chain order the Whopper, French fries and a drink. A random sample of 10 cash registe

weqwewe [10]

Answer: 0.0023

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the binomial variable that represents the number of receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered.

probability of success p = 32% = 0.32

Sample size : n= 10

Binomial probability function :

$P(X=x)= \ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$

Now, the probability that eight receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered :

$P(X=8)=\ ^{10}C_8(0.32)^8(1-0.32)^2\\\\=\dfrac{10!}{8!2!}(0.32)^8(0.68)^2\\\\=5\times9(0.0000508414176684)\\\\=0.00228786379508\approx0.0023$

hence, the required probability = 0.0023

Darius is a graphic designer he makes a sign for a company that has a width of 2 feet and a length of 2 feet 6 inches the compan

Sav [38]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the sign made by Darius initially = 2 feet

Length of the sign = 2 feet 6 inches

Dimension of the flyer are 10 inches by 8 inches. Since, in original sign the measure of length is greater, therefore, the length of flyer is 10 inches and its width is 8 inches.

In order to find the scale factor we must convert the lengths and widths to same units. Lets convert the length and width of sign into inches.

Since, 1 feet = 12 inches

Length of the sign = 2 feet 6 inches = 2(12) + 6 inches = 30 inches

Width of the sign = 2 feet = 2(12) inches = 24 inches

Now we can find the scale factor by either comparing the lengths or widths of both the designs. Scale factor will be equal to the ratio of corresponding lengths/widths.

So, the scale factor would be:

Length of Flyer : Length of Sign

= 10 inches : 30 inches

= 1 : 3

= $\frac{1}{3}$

This shows, the length of flyer is $\frac{1}{3}$ times as that of the sign. So, the scale factor that Darius must use is $\frac{1}{3}$ . The length and width of the flyer are $\frac{1}{3}$ as that of the sign.

The same scale factor would result if we would have used the ratio of widths instead of the lengths.

Scale Factor = Width of Flyer : Width of sign

= 8 : 24

= 1 : 3

Therefore, Darius must type the scale factor of $\frac{1}{3}$ in his computer to get the size of the flyer.

Sandwiches at the deli cost $4.75 each and drinks cost $0.95 each. mrs. singh has $30.00 to spend. will $30.00 be enough to buy
