Answer:
The answer to the nearest hundredth is 0.07 liters per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are told to express the given metric in liters per minute.
The key to answering this question, is to
have the given measurements in the metric in which we want to have the answer.
Hence, we do this by converting milliliters to liters and seconds to minute.
Let’s start with milliliters;
Mathematically;
1000 milliliters = 1 liters
10 milliliters = x liters
x * 1000 = 10 * 1
x = 10/1000
x = 1/100
x = 0.01 liters
For the seconds;
We need to convert the seconds to minutes;
Mathematically;
60 seconds = 1 minute
8.5 seconds = y minutes
60 * y = 8.5 * 1
y = 8.5/60
y = 0.14167 minutes
Now, our rate of flow is liters per minute, that means we have to divide the volume by the time;
Hence, we have ;
0.01/0.14167 = 0.070588235294
Which to the nearest hundredth is 0.07
I'm pretty sure this would be because if I'm correct, the surveyors would not have known where and who they were gonna survey before they went. However, this wouldn't show accurate information because you should survey at least 100 people.
