In a paint factory, an old conveyer line has filled 10 barrels of paint, and is filling more at a rate of 3 barrels per minute.

A worker just switched on a newer line that can fill 4 barrels per minute. In a little while, the two lines will have filled an equal number of barrels. How many barrels will each line have filled?

Answer:

40 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = 4*10 = 40 barrels

10 + 3x = 10 + 3(10) = 40 barrels

Answer:

40 barrels

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let x = number of minutes

Old conveyor line :

Filling rate = 3 barrels per minute

Already filled = 10 barrels

Equation :

10 + 3x - - - (1)

NEW conveyor line:

Filling rate = 4 barrels per minute

Equation :

4x - - - (2)

Equate equation (1) and (2)

10 + 3x = 4x

10 = 4x - 3x

10 = x

Hence, in 10 minutes, each line will have filmed same number of barrels which is

4x = 4*10 = 40 barrels

10 + 3x = 10 + 3(10) = 40 barrels

A coin is tossed 20 times. It lands on heads 9 times. What is the P(H) according to your experiment? Write your answer as a frac
Mama L [17]

Answer:

\frac{9}{20}=0.45=45%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is found by first forming a fraction where the numerator represents the number of desired outcomes and the denominator represents the total number of outcomes.  In this case, the desired outcomes is the amount of times the coin lands on heads (9) and the total outcomes is the number of times the coin is tossed (20):

\frac{9}{20}

Divide numerator by denominator to get a decimal: 9÷20= 0.45

Multiply the decimal by 100 to get a percent: 0.45 x 100 = 45%
