Answer: 1/5 or 0.2 in decimal form.
Explanation:
There are 60 seconds in a minute. We know the river flows 12 ft per 1 minute. So in order to find the rate per seconds, divide: 60/12. You get the answer: 1/5 or 0.2 in decimal form.
Answer:19/26
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of students=26
Number of students that play basket ball=8
Number of students that play
baseball=11
Probability of playing both=6
Probability of playing either of the 2 games=8/26+11/26=19/26
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Draw the graph for each side, member, of the equation and see where the curves cross, are equal. The x values of these points, are the solutions to the equation.
Answer:
equation: y = 12x
Dr. Betz worked for 8 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation we'll use the form y = mx, where y represents the amount of time the Doctor worked, m is the amount of minutes it takes to treat each animal, and x is how many animals have been treated. We know the value of m is 12, so let's put that into the equation:
y = 12x
Now we have our equation. We can use it to see how long Dr. Betz worked. He treated a total of 40 animals - 20 including the shaggy dog, and 20 after the shaggy dog. let's replace x with 40:
y = 12(40)
Now solve:
y = 480
Dr. Betz worked for 480 minutes. There are 60 minutes in an hour. Divide 480 by 60 to find out how many hours Dr. Betz worked for:
480/60 = 8
Dr. Betz worked for 8 hours.
