Answer:
80 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let W₁ be the initial weight of water in the grapefruit, W₂ be the weight of water in the grapefruit after evaporation, and M be the total weight of the grapefruit after evaporation. Assuming that, originally, the grapefruit weighed 100 pounds with a 92% water content and the weight of the "non-water" part of the fruit (100 - W₁) does not change. The final weight of the grapefruit (M) is given by:
The grapefruit now weighs 80 pounds.
Velocity * time = distance
40 (miles / hour) * t (hours) = 60 (miles)
Take note how the units work. miles/hour * hours = miles. This is an indication that a formula we picked is correct.
Now, looking at our formula (and neglecting units at this point)
40t = 60
t = 60/40
<span>t = 1.5 hours</span>
So C/D=.34 And D=.11, now just plug D into the first equation.
C/.11=.34 Divide by .11
C=3.09090909
Now this rounded two decimal places is 3.09!
Hope this helps
Susan has 50 so the difference is 5 sense sheila had 45
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the triangles are similar, also is a right triangle
therefore
16/8=10/x
x=(8*10)/16=5
x=5
