<h3>Answer:  D. 5 blinks</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

First we'll need to find out how long it takes for the ball to go from the pitcher to the batter.

It needs to travel 60.5 feet and does so at a speed of 121 ft/sec

distance = speed*time

time = distance/speed

time = (60.5 ft)/(121 ft per sec)

time = 0.5 seconds

In half a second, the ball is from the pitcher to the batter.

------------

An eye blink is 0.1 second which means we can form this equation

0.1 second = 1 blink

We multiply both sides by 5 to get the "0.1 second" to turn into "0.5 seconds".

So,

0.1 second = 1 blink

5*(0.1 second) = 5*(1 blink)

0.5 seconds = <u>5 blinks</u> which points us to choice D.

If there are 1500 guests, only 1 of them brought a coupon for free admission to the carnival?
wlad13 [49]
So 1/50 brought the pass
x out 1500
1/50 = x/1500
cross multiply
1500 = 50x
divide both sides by 50
30 = x

You can expect for 30 out of the 1,500 to receive free admissions. 

Hope this helps

Since drapes have to be covered all over the window and the beneath of the window, both lengths have to be added.
