Answer:

1/7 or 14.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

30% of 750 = 225  (females who study chemistry)

60% of 2250 = 1350  (males who study chemistry)

1575 = total students studying chemistry

P (female chemistry student) = 225/1575 = 1/7 (simplified)

1/7 = 14.3%

David wants to fill his backyard swimming pool. His garden hose delivers 40 gallons in 5 minutes. How many gallons of water will
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Part a) 160\ gallons

Part b) 480\ gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) How many gallons of water will be in the pool after 20 minutes?

we know that

Using proportion

\frac{40}{5}\frac{gallons}{minutes}=\frac{x}{20}\frac{gallons}{minutes} \\ \\x=40*20/5\\ \\x=160\ gallons

Part b) How many gallons of water will be in the pool after 1 hour

we know that

1 hour = 60 minutes

Using proportion

\frac{40}{5}\frac{gallons}{minutes}=\frac{x}{60}\frac{gallons}{minutes} \\ \\x=40*60/5\\ \\x=480\ gallons

Please help me, im not gonna beg, I just really need help? k?

For the unit rate, you are looking for how much one unit of something costs. Looking at the table, you'll see that 3 bottles of fragrance A costs $78. What you want to figure out is how much one bottle costs.

You can do this by taking the price and dividing it by how many there are.

78 ÷ 3 = $26

156 ÷ 6 = $26

234 ÷ 9 = $26

You can see that each bottle of fragrance A costs $26.

Now looking at the graph, you'll see that the line only lines up perfectly at 2 points: (1, 24) and (2, 48). This tells us that for each bottle of fragrance B, it costs $24.

Comparing the two, fragrance A will have the greatest unit rate.
