Answer:

3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

16 pupils, 11 play both, 1 plays piano only and 1 flute only

⇒ 11 + 1 + 1 = 13 pupils who play at least one instrument

⇒ 16 - 13 = 3 pupils who don't play either instrument

⇒ Out of the 16 total pupils, 3 play neither, putting this into numbers:

\frac{3}{16} which is then also the answer.

12. A carpenter made two tables. The first table is 4 feet
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

a. True

b. True

c. False

d. False

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First Table</u>

Length=10 feet, Width=4 feet

Area =10 X 4=40 Square Feet

<u>Second Table</u>

The second table is half as long  as the first table.

Length =0.5 X 10 =5 feet

Area=5 X Width= 5w

The area of the second table is one  fourth the area of the first table.

Area of Second Table =\frac{1}{4} X Area of first table

5w=\frac{1}{4} X 40

5w=10

Width of the Second table, w=2 feet

The following are true.

(a)The width of the second  table is 2 feet.

(b) The area of the second  table is 10 square feet.

A boat travels 36 miles in 1.5 hours ans then in 14 miles in 0.75 hour. what is the average speed?
allochka39001 [22]

The average speed can be obtained by the formula:

V_{\text{average}}=\dfrac{\text{total distance}}{\text{total time}}.

If a boat travels 36 miles in 1.5 hours ans then in 14 miles in 0.75 hour, then find:

  • total distance is 36+14=50 miles;
  • total time: 1.5+0.75=2.25 hours.

Therefore,

V_{\text{average}}=\dfrac{50}{2.25}=\dfrac{5000}{225}=\dfrac{200}{9}=22.(2) miles per hour.

Answer: V_{\text{average}}=\dfrac{200}{9}=22.(2) miles per hour.
