Answer:

4 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the rate of the machines 1/x, because every time they complete an order, it takes them x hours. To find x, we have to add the the rates of the individual machines, which would equal the rate of the machines working together. We know that there are four machines working together at the same rate, and it took them 32 hours.

So:

1/x + 1/x + 1/x + 1/x = 1/32

1/4x = 1/32

4x = 32

x = 8

Thus, the rate of the machines is 1/8.

Now we have to find the time of the order with only half of the machines working together. This time, we don't know the combined rate, so I'll substitute it for y.

1/8 + 1/8 = 1/y

1/4 = 1/y

y = 4

The time taken to complete it is 4 hours.

Emily flipped a coin 30 times the coin landed heads up nine times and tails up 21 times
lara [203]
Part A)
 The coin landed on heads 9 times out of 30 flips, so the experimental probability is 9/30, which reduces to 3/10 probability.

Part B)
 Theoretically a coin has a 1/2 probability of landing on heads each flip

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer: 1/4 round.

Step-by-step explanation:

Grace has 3 wheels of cheese and she wants to eat an equal amount each day for 12 days. So each wheel needs to last 12/3 = 4 days. So then she can eat 1 wheel/4 days = 1/4 wheel per day.
