Answer: In 1 hour , it will waste = 1.25ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of water  wasted by the tap in 9 Hours = 11,250 ml

Since  it drips in equal quantity,

In 1 hr , it will drip=  1 x 11,250 / 9 = 1,250 ml

But  1000 ml = 1 Liter

1250 ml = 1250ml x 1Liter / 1000ml= 1.25L

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

a) p + m = 10 and \frac{p + 0.2m}{0.8m} = \frac{60}{40}

b) The mixing amount is 5 lb peanut and 5 lb mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p pounds of peanuts and m pounds of the 80% almond and 20% peanut mixture are used to make 10 pounds of 60% peanuts and 40% of almonds mixture.

Now, we can write that p + m = 10 ........ (1)  

Now, m pounds of 80% almond and 20% peanut mixture contain 0.2m pounds of peanuts and 0.8m pounds of almonds.

Now, from the condition given it can be written that  

\frac{p + 0.2m}{0.8m} = \frac{60}{40} .......... (2)

⇒ \frac{p + 0.2m}{0.8m} = \frac{3}{2}

⇒ 2p + 0.4m = 2.4m

⇒ 2p = 2m

⇒ p = m  

Now from equation (1) we get p = m = 5 pounds.

a) Therefore, equations (1) and (2) are the system of equations that models the situation.

b) The mixing amount is 5 lb peanut and 5 lb mixture. (Answer)

exis [7]
5:12 means there are 17 parts
Percentages are calculated by dividing the part by the total, and multiplying by 100
Julie put in 5 out of 17 parts so:
\frac{5}{17}×100=29.4%
Kristen owns the rest of the business \frac{12}{17}×100=70.6%

The amount of money doesn't make a difference, as the percentage will always be the same.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Around 2.9 gallons is equivalent to 11 liters.  

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills needed: Conversion, Division, Equations</u>

1) 1 gallon  = 3.79 liters

2) We want to find how many gallons 1 liter is equal to ---> Use the original equation and divide by 3.79 on both sides.

You will get --> 1 liter  = 1/3.79 gallons

3) To find how many gallons 11 liters is we multiply both sides by 11.

We will get 11 liters  = 11/3.79 gallons ---> 11/3.79 is 2.9 when rounded to the nearest tenth.

Therefore 2.9 gallons is the answer.
