Answer:

Time in normal clock = 2:30 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Clock losses 4 min per hour

Total time = 2:20 Pm

Find:

Time in normal clock

Computation:

Total time = 2:20 = 2.333 hour

Total time losses = 2.333 x 4 min = 9.32 minutes (Approx)

Time in normal clock = 2:20 + 9.32 minutes (Approx)

Time in normal clock = 2:29.32 0r 2:30 PM

Solve the equation
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

All real numbers; the simplification is described below.

Step-by-step explanation:

5(- 3x - 2) - (x - 3) = -4(4x + 5) + 13

Let's keep in mind PEMDAS (the order of operations) to simplify and solve this. First, we'll distribute inside each set of parenthesis!

5(-3x) + 5(-2) -1(x) -1(-3) = -4(4x) -4(5) + 13

See how we've taken the outer term on the outside of the parenthesis and multiplied it to each term inside the parenthesis. Simplify further.

-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13

Now we can combine like terms! I will bold the terms I am combining.

-15x - 10 - x + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the x terms on the left)

-16x - 10 + 3 = -16x - 20 + 13 (combining the constants on both sides)

-16x - 7 = -16x - 7

Aha! It looks like we have an equation that's literally equal to itself. If we were to simplify this, or put in any number, we'd get that number equals itself. For example:

-16(1) - 7 = -16(1) - 7

-16 - 7 = -16 - 7

-21 = -21

Any number you put in here will make the equation true, so these lines must be the same line. That means the solution is all real numbers.

My boss has told me that I will need one gallon of paint for every 300 square feet of wall I must paint. Unfortunately, the stor
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer: 14 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, Total area to paint = 400 square meters

approximately 3.28 feet in a meter.

So, 400 square meters = 400 x (3.28)² square feet

i.e. Total area to paint  = 4303.36 square feet

One gallon of paint requires for every 300 square feet.

One liter contains approximately 0.264 gallons

Then, One gallon = \dfrac{1}{0.264}\approx3.78\text{ liters}

So, 3.78 liters paint requires for every 300 square feet.

Paint requires for each square feet = (3.78)÷(300) liters

Total paint required  = (Total area to paint ) x (Paint requires for each square feet)

= (4303.36)x (3.78)÷(300)

≈54.22 liters

Each can contains 4 liters of paint.

Smallest number of cans required = (Total paint required )÷ 4

=(54.22 ) ÷ 4

= 13.55≈ 14

Hence, 14 cans are required .
