Answer:

14 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If 11 2/3 gallons represents 5/6 full bucket then we can equate that

A family is driving 600 miles. Assuming they stop to get gas 3 times and eat 2 times, how many hours will it take them to reach
Umnica [9.8K]
Lets assume that they are driving at an average of 70mph, and getting gas takes 10 minutes, and stopping to eat takes 30.

t=d/s

t=600/70
t=8.57 

Stopping to eat twice is 30 x 2 = 60 (another hour)

and Gas is 10 x 3 = 30 minutes (0.5 hours)

Total time is,

8.57+1+0.5 =10.07

So the trip will take approx 10.7 hours total.

(This is using my assumptions, from my experience!)

A company makes 140 bags. 39 of the bags have buttons but no zips. 21 of the bags have zips but no buttons. 23 of the bags have
sleet_krkn [62]

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that reflects the removal of things from a collection. The number of bags that zips on them is 78.

<h3>What is subtraction?</h3>

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that reflects the removal of things from a collection. The negative symbol represents subtraction.

Given the number of bags that the company makes is 140. 39 of the bags have buttons but no zips. 21 of the bags have zips but no buttons. 23 of the bags have neither zips nor buttons.

Bags that have both zip and button

= Total number of bags - Number of bags with zips but no buttons - Number of bags with buttons but no zips - Number of bags with nor zips nor the buttons

= 140 - 21 - 39 - 23

= 57

Now, the number of bags that has zips will be the bags that only have zips and the number of bags that has zips and buttons. Therefore, the number of bags with zips is,

n = Bags that have both zip and button + Number of bags with zips but no buttons

   = 37 + 21

   = 78

Hence, the number of bags that zips on them is 78.

Janelle graphed a line through (−6, 5) that had a slope of −79. What is the y-coordinate of a point on the line that has an x-co
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The value of the y-coordinate is -706

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line is;

y = mx + c

where m is slope and c is t-intercept

Given the slope, we can write the equation as;

y = -79x + c

we need to get c

Just put in the x and y values of the given point

X = -6 and y = 5

5 = -79(-6) + c

5 = 474 + c

c = 5-474 = -469

So the complete equation of the line would

be ;

y = -79x - 469

To get the y-coordinate of the point, just insert the x value into the equation;

y = -79(3) - 469

y = -237 - 469 = -706

Chloe received 86% on her first test, a 47/50 in her next test, and a 0.89 on her third test. List her percentages in order from
Mumz [18]

Answer:

  84%, 86%, 89%

Step-by-step explanation:

The three numbers, expressed as percentages, are ...

  • 86%
  • (47/50)×100% = 84%
  • 0.89×100% = 89%

Smallest to largest, they are 84%, 86%, and 89%. In the original form, they are 47/50, 86%, and 0.89.
