Answer:

2.5 L

Step-by-step explanation:

We use a rule of three to solve this problem, the information we have is represented as follows:

Liters       People

   1       ⇒    20

   x       ⇒    50

x represents the unknown quantity, the liters that correspond to 50 people.

The way x is found is as follows: We multiply the cross quantities and divide by the remaining quantity.

x=\frac{50*1}{20}\\ x=2.5

Thus, for 50 people is provided 2.5 liters of water

2 1/2 litres would be a reasonable amount of water assuming everyone drinks the same amount.

For the first four days of a five day vacation, the mean temperature was 80 degrees. What must the temperature be on the fifth d
V125BC [204]

Answer:

The 5th day must be 90

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 4 days averaged out to 80

You can find their total just by multiplying by 4. That won't tell you the exact values, but it will tell you their total when you add the 4 of them together.

80*4 = 320

Now you need to add another day into the mix. Call it x

320 + x

Now there are 5 days, not 4, and the new total is 82.

(320 + x) / 5 = 82          Multiply both sides by 5

5*(320 + x) / 5 = 82 *5

320 + x = 410                 Subtract 320

-320        -320

x = 90

Simplify<br> a(cube)-1000b(cube)<br> 64a(cube)-125b(cube)
Elanso [62]

The simplification of a³ - 1000b³ and 64a³ - 125b³ is (a - 10b) × (a² + 10ab + 100b²) and 4a - 5b) • (16a² + 20ab + 25b²) respectively.

<h3>Simplification</h3>

Question 1: a³ - 1000b³

a³ - b³

= (a-b) × (a² +ab +b²)

  • 1000 is the cube of 10
  • a³ is the cube of a¹
  • b³ is the cube of b¹

So,

(a - 10b) × (a² + 10ab + 100b²)

Question 2: 64a³ - 125b³

a³ - b³

= (a-b) × (a² +ab +b²)

  • 64 is the cube of 4
  • 125 is the cube of 5
  • a³ is the cube of a¹
  • b³ is the cube of b¹

So,

(4a - 5b) • (16a² + 20ab + 25b²)
