Answer:
The time it would take them to fill 750 gallons
= 200 minutes or 3 hours 20 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
We calculate the rate at which the hoses fill for Andre and His neighbor
For Andre
The garden hose at Andre's house can fill a 5-gallon bucket in 2 minutes.
The rate is calculated as:
5 gallon/2 minutes
= 2.5 gallons/minute
For His neighbor
The hose at his next-door neighbor's house can fill a 10-gallon bucket in 8
minutes.
= 10 gallon/8 minutes
= 1.25 gallon/minute
Step 2
Hence:
If they use both their garden hoses at the same time, and the hoses continue working at the same rate, the sum of their rate =
2.5 + 1.25 = 3.75 gallons per minute.
Step 3
The time it would take them to fill 750 gallons =
750 gallons ÷ 3.75 gallons per minute
= 200 minutes
= 3 hours 20 minutes
Christopher would be able to make 18 scarves.
To solve this problem, we just need to divide 12 by 2/3. To divide 12 by 2/3, we just multiply 12 by 3/2.
This will give us 36 over 2 or just 18.
Answer:
A=9675.299
Step-by-step explanation:
A=p(1+r)^t
A compound amount
P is the principle amount invested
r : rate ( semiannually is 0.5 )
t=years ( semiannually 12*2=24)
A=3000(1+0.10/2)^24
A=9675.299
