In the given question, it is given that  ramp is 17 feet long, rises 8 feet above the floor, and covers a horizontal distance of 15 feet.

And we have to find the value of tan B.

And tangent of any angle is equal to the ratio of vertical by horizontal. That is:

tanB=8/15

And that's the required missing ratio for tan B.

John is filling a bathtub that is 18 inches deep. He notices it takes 2 mins. To fill the tub 3 inches of water. He estimates it
Pavel [41]

Depth of the bathtub = 18 inches

Time taken to fill 3 inches of the bathtub = 2 minutes

Then

The amount of depth needed to fill with water = (18-3) inches

                                                                        = 15 inches

Time required to fill 15 inches of the bathtub = (15*2)/3 minutes

                                                                      = 30/3 minutes

                                                                      = 10 minutes

So John is correct in thinking that it will take 10 more minutes for the water to reach the top of the tub if he continues at the same rate.

Hope this helps!

What is 7/8 divided by 1/8
eduard

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Concepts:</u>

  • Division: a system of distributing a collection of things into equal parts
  • Fractions: #s that represent a part of a whole
  • Dividing Fractions: dividing a fraction by another fraction = multiplying the fraction by the inverse (reciprocal) of the other one
  • Inverse Operations: operations that are opposite of each other (e.g. inverse of addition is subtraction)

<u>Solving:</u>

1. First, let's set up the equation:

7/8 ÷ 1/8

2. We can get the reciprocal of 1/8 by doing the opposite of division; multiplication. 1/8 becomes 1 · 8, and that's equal to 8.

3. Now, since we know dividing a fraction by another one is exactly the same as multiplying the fraction by the reciprocal of the other, let's multiply 7/8 by the inverse of 1/8, which is 8.

7/8 · 8 = 56/8 = 7

Therefore, 7/8 divided by 1/8 is equal to <u>7</u>.
