As a block of ice melts, its weight changes from 1 /34 lb to 1/4 lb. This change takes 1/4 h. The ice melts at a constant rate.

At what rate does the weight of the ice change? Show your work.

You must have these backwards as 1/34 lb is less than 1/4 lb. finding a common denominator, we get (17/68 - 2/68)/(1/4) = 60/68 = 15/17 lb/hour

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the area of each of the two circles.

First Circle:

The first circle has a diameter of 10 inches. That means the radius is 5 inches. So, its area is:

$A=\pi r^2\\A=\pi (5)^2\\A=25\pi$

Second Circle:

The second circle has a diameter twice that of the first. So, the diameter is 20 inches. This means that the radius is 10 inches. Find the area:

$A=\pi r^2\\A=\pi (10)^2\\A=100\pi$

Now, find the ratio between them by dividing:

$\frac{\text{Smaller}}{\text{Larger}}=\frac{25\pi}{100\pi}$

Simplify:

$\frac{\text{Smaller}}{\text{Larger}}=\frac{1}{4}$

1/4 is the same as 1:4

So, our answer is C :)

Freddy spent $56.07 on four pairs of jeans at the store. His cost included $4.15 sales tax.

S_A_V [24]

$12.98 each. You would do $56.07 - $4.15. Then divide the answer of that by four.
