grandymaker [24]

Answer: a.) 2/3 ; b.) 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following details :

Destination A trains arrives at station at 15 minutes interval starting from 7am

Destination B trains arrives at station at 15 minutes interval starting from 7.05am

A.) if a passenger arrives at station uniformly between 7am and 8am and gets on first train. What proportion of time does the passenger leave from destination A?

To leave for destination A. The passenger has to arrive before train to A departs and after train to B leaves.

Train to B leaves, starting at at 7.05 a.m and at interval of 15 minutes

Train to A leaves at 7.00 am and at interval of 15 minutes.

Therefore,

(Train B departs - train A arrives) (between 7 to 8am)

(7.05 - 7.15) + (7.20 - 7.30) + (7.35 - 7.45) + (7.50 - 8.00) = 40 minutes

Total time = 7.00 - 8.00 = 60 minutes

(40 ÷ 60) = 2/3 or 0.667

B.) If passenger arrives uniformly between 7.10am - 8:10am

(7.10 - 7.15) + (7.20 - 7.30) + (7.35 - 7.45) + (7.50 - 8)

5 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 35

35/60 = 7/12 or 0.583

PAINTING Lisa is painting a fence that is 26 feet long and 7 feet tall. A gallon of paint will cover 350 square feet. Write and
skelet666 [1.2K]
First we need to find the area of the fence, since paint covers square feet and squared units refers to area.  The area of the fence is 26 x 7, which is 182 sq ft.  If one gallon of paint will cover 350 sq ft, your proportion will look like this, with gallons of paint on top and square feet on the bottom. \frac{1}{350} = \frac{x}{182}.  Cross multiply to get 350x = 182 and x = .52, just a bit over a half of a gallon of paint.
