<h3>Answer:  1080</h3>

===================================================

Work Shown:

1 hour = 60 minutes

6 hours = 360 minutes .... multiply both sides by 6

(45 people)/(15 minutes) = (x people)/(360 minutes)

45/15 = x/360

45*360 = 15*x .... cross multiply

16200 = 15x

15x = 16200

x = 16200/15

x = 1080

---------------

Another approach:

45 people can ride every 15 minutes. That means 180 people can ride every 60 minutes (multiply both values by 4). Or in other words, the ride can handle 180 people per hour.

Multiply that 180 by 6 to find out how many can ride in 6 hours

180*6 = 1080

60÷15=4

Is rolling a 3 standard doe and then rolling a sum greater than 4 when counting the next roll an independent event?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you roll 3 from the standard die and then add it with the next roll to see if the sums are greater than 4.

From this explanation you can see that you use the result from your first roll for the second event, so we can conclude that the event is dependent.  

Imagine if we change the result of the first roll into 5, without adding the second roll we can know that the sum will be greater than 4. The first event result will influence the second event, so it is a dependent event.

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

4v-6.3w+9.8

Step-by-step explanation:

If you distribute the negative sign (same as distributing -1), then you get -(-4v) + (-6.3w) - (-(9.8))

Basically it's switching the signs

What two numbers have 2,3,5 as factors
lukranit [14]
Two numbers with factors 2,3,5 are 30 and 60.
when we multiply 2 x 3 x 5 = 30
we get answer 30 and then again multiply with the number that is greater than 1 is 2 and then we get 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
So the first two numbers with factors 2, 3 and 5 are 30 and 60.
