Answer:

1.8 minutes or 108 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us that the larger belt moves 300 lbs in 2 mins. And this is equal to 150 lb per minute

The question also tells us that a smaller belt moves the same quantity of 300 lbs in 18 mins. And this is equal to an average of 16.667 lb per min.

Both belts will move at a rate of 166.667 lb per min.

So it will take them 300 / 166.667 = 1.8 min or 108 s.

Therefore, the answer is 1.8 min

astraxan [27]

Answer is 280

First, find A = 35% (100% less the three known percents = 35

Second, find ratio of B
20% of x = 160
Divide 160/.20 to isolate x
X=800 (total biscuits)
Now take A percentage x 800 biscuits
800 x 35% = 280 people chose biscuit A

Larry read a 400400400-page book. He read at a rate of 101010 pages per day for ddd days. Write an equation that could be used t
ira [324]

Answer:

From Larry's rate, the equation can be given as D = T/101010

Step-by-step explanation:

Larry's book has 400400400 pages

His reading rate is 101010 pages per day

Let D = Number of days to read the book

To get the number of days it takes fro Larry to read this book, we say

Total pages = Reading rate (pages/day) x Number of days

Let Total pages = T

and Reading rate = R

Hence;

D = T / R

From Larry's rate, the equation can be given as D = T/101010.

From the question,

ddd = 400400400 (pages) / 101010 (pages/day) = 3963.9 days

Hence, it takes Larry approximately 3964 days to read the book.
