9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) 9:45 pm

  b) 10:57 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 15 hours between 7:30 am and 10:30 pm, the clock hands will have moved 15×0.95 = 14.25 hours = 14 hours and 15 minutes.

At 10:30 pm, the clock indicates 9:45 pm.

__

b) In the 9 hours between 10:30 pm and 7:30 am, the clock will have moved 9×0.95 = 8.55 hours, or 8 hours 33 minutes. That is, the clock needs to be set 27 minutes ahead of the actual time.

The clock need to be set to 10:57 pm.

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

At 95% speed, the clock loses 5%×60 minutes = 3 minutes each hour. In the 15 hours from morning to night, the clock will be 45 minutes slow. It will indicate 9:45 at 10:30 pm.

In the 9 hours from night to morning, the clock will lose 27 minutes so needs to be set 27 minutes fast. It should be set to 10:57 pm at 10:30 pm.

Answer: A. 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find the total number of teachers, we can add 25+32+18+5+20=100

Next, we divide the number of teachers in 2014 (20) by the total number of teachers (100) as follows:

20 ÷ 100 = 0.2

Finally, to make 0.2 a percentage, we can multiply 0.2 X 100 = 20

Therefore, the correct answer is A.

A cube has a lateral surface area of 64sq m find the total surface area of the cube
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

384 square meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a cube has a lateral surface area of 64 square meters, to find the total surface area of the cube, the following calculation must be performed, knowing that the formula to calculate the area of a cube is to multiply by 6 (the number of sides of the cube) the area of one of its sides:

A x 6 = X

64 x 6 = X

384 = X

Thus, the area of the cube is 384 square meters.
