5/2 is the answer.
Have a nive day!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The time is inversely related to the number of people working so that as the number of people working increases, the time required decreases
t = k p
divide both sides by p
t/p =k
Answer:
7.5 Quarts
Step-by-step explanation:
D'Naisa mixed the following:
- 1 gallon of orange paint
- 2 quarts of yellow paint
- 3 pints of red paint.
We are to determine in total, the number of quarts of paint that she mixed. this is done by converting each of the volume to quart.
<u>1 gallon of orange paint</u>
- 1 gallon = 4 Quarts
- Orange Paint=4 Quarts
<u>3 pints of red paint.</u>
- 1 pint =0.5 quart
- 3 Pints =3 X 0.5 Quart
- =1.5 Quart of red paint
Therefore,
Total Volume of Paint Mixed in quart= Volume of Orange+Yellow+Red
=4+2+1.5
=7.5 Quarts
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Original Figure:
Length = 15
Width = 5
Height = 10
Volume = Length*Width*Height
Volume = 15*5*10
Volume = 750
New Figure
Length = 3
Width = 1
Height = 2
Each dimension has been divided by 5 (eg: 15/5 = 3)
Volume = Length*Width*Height
Volume = 3*1*2
Volume = 6
The old volume was 750 and it changes to 6
Notice how 750/6 = 125
Which can be rearranged to 750/125 = 6
Answer: if you divide the old volume by 125, then you get the new volume
Note: the new volume is 125 times smaller than the old volume
Put another way, the old volume is 125 times larger compared to the new volume
The fact that 125 = 5^3 is not a coincidence. If you divide each dimension by some number k, then you divide the volume by k^3
