What's the answer to this question

Mathematics

Step-by-step explanation:

there are several things to be considered to solve this.

the strategy is to caucuses the volume of the full "box", and then to deduct the 3-dimensional triangle that is "cut off" from the oil.

then we know the volume of the pool.

next step is to calculate the volume of a "box" with the same layout but is only 20 cm deep.

then we know how much volume can be pumped out in 30 minutes.

and then we divide the whole volume by that small volume to see how many 30-minues units are needed to empty the whole pool.

and then we transform the 30- minutes units into actual minutes or hours.

so, let's begin :

the whole box's volume is

2×1×1.4 = 2.8 m³

the volume of the 3-D triangle we need to subtract is the area of the triangle × width of the pool (this pool width is the height of the 3-D triangle).

2×(1.4 - 0.6) × 1 / 2 = 2×0.8 × 1 / 2 = 1.6/2 = 0.8 m³

so, the volume of the pool is

2.8 - 0.8 = 2 m³

now, how much volume can the pump eliminate in 30 minutes ?

the content of a box

1×2×0.2 = 0.4 m³

as 20 cm = 0.2 m

so, the pump pumps out 0.4 m³ in 30 minutes.

and we need to empty 2 m³.

that means we need

2 / 0.4 = 5

30-minues units = 5×30 = 150 minutes = 2.5 hours.

Colin has to wait 2.5 hours (150 minutes) to empty the complete pool.

George cut a cake into eight pieces. Explain what the unit fraction of the cake is.​
morpeh [17]

Answer:

1/8th

Step-by-step explanation: A unit fraction is a rational number written as a fraction where the numerator is one and the denominator is a positive integer. A unit fraction is therefore the reciprocal of a positive integer, 1/n. Examples are 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 ,1/5, etc. so in this case the cake is eight slices so 1/8

Write the multiplicative inverse of 1.725. Enter your answer as a fraction in its simplest form. The multiplicative inverse of 1
Katarina [22]
Multiplicative inverse is a number which when multiplied with the current number, the answer unit (that is, 1).

Now,
1.725 = 1725/1000 = 69/40

Inverting this and multiplying it with the results yields 1. That is,

69/40*40/69 = 1
Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of 1.725 is 40/69

Sam wants to find the best buy on cans of tuna. He reads these four ads in the newspaper.$12.53 for seven cans$5.97 for three ca
grandymaker [24]
In each case divide the price by the number of cans.
The best buy is the lowest price.
$12.53/7 = $1.79
$5.97/3 = $1.99
$7.95/5 = $1.59
$8.34/6 = $1.39

The fourth ad, $8.34 for 6 cans results in the lowest price per can, $1.39.
The fourth ad is the best buy.
