Answer:

32 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

For 150 people, waiting time = 20 minutes

So, for 1 minute waiting time, number of people = 150 ÷ 20

= 7.5 people per minute

So, for 240 people, waiting time = 240 ÷ 7.5

= 32 minutes.

So, the waiting time when 240 people are in line is 32 minutes.

Answer: The waiting time will be 32 minutes when 240 people in line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the waiting time is directly proportional to the number of people in the queue.

Equation of direct proportion between variables x and y :  \dfrac{x_1}{y_1}=\dfrac{x_2}{y_2}

Put x_1=20,\ y_1=150,\ y_2=150  to find  x_2.

\dfrac{20}{150}=\dfrac{x_2}{240}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x_2=\dfrac{20}{150}\times240\\\\\Rightarrow\ x_2=32

Hence, the waiting time will be 32 minutes when 240 people in line.

Answer:

6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cube is given by

SA = 6s^2

216 = 6s^2

Divide each side by 6

216/6 = 6s^2/6

36 = s^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(36) = sqrt(s^2)

6 =s

Each side is 6ft

Please, Help.<br>the answer isn't 30°
vagabundo [1.1K]

The <em>missing</em> angle of the <em>right</em> triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A)

<h3>How to find a missing angle by triangle properties</h3>

Triangles are <em>geometrical</em> figures formed by three sides and whose sum of <em>internal</em> angles equals 180°. There are two kind of triangles existing in this question: (i) <em>Right</em> triangles, (ii) <em>Isosceles</em> triangles.

<em>Right</em> triangles are triangles which one of its angles equals 90° and <em>isosceles</em> triangles are triangles which two of its sides have <em>equal</em> measures.

According to the statement, we know that triangle BQR is an <em>isosceles</em> triangle, whereas triangles ABC, ANB and NBC are <em>right</em> triangles. Based on the figure attached below, we have the following system of <em>linear</em> equations based on <em>right</em> triangles ABC and NBC:

<em>2 · x + 90 + θ = 180</em>   (1)

<em>(90 - x) + 90 + θ = 180</em>   (2)

By equalizing (1) and (2) we solve the system for <em>x</em>:

<em>2 · x = 90 - x</em>

<em>3 · x = 90</em>

<em>x = 30</em>

And by (1) we solve the system for <em>θ</em>:

<em>θ = 180 - 2 · x - 90</em>

<em>θ = 30</em>

<em />

The <em>missing</em> angle of the <em>right</em> triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A) \blacksquare
