1/3 yard = 1/2 hr
  x  yard =  1 hr 

Okay, so if 1/3 of his yard is mowed in half an hour, "x" of his yard is mowed in an hour. 
1/3 yard is to 1/2 hr as "x" yard is to 1 hr 

Solve by cross multiplying: 
1/2x = 1/3 *1 
1/2x = 1/3
(divide both sides by 1/2) 
2/3 

Richard can mow 2/3 of his yard in one hour.

You can also figure this out by just realizing that 1/2 hr multiplied by 2 would give you 1 hr and then multiply 1/3 by 2 but it's good to get into the habit of solving things algebraically (or so I've been told).

At the start of the recovery period, the waterbuck population contained only 140 individuals. The population had 0.67 births per
Sergio [31]

Answer:

the intrinsic growth rate of the population = 0.67 - 0.06 = 0.61 or 61%

Step-by-step explanation:

since populations increase exponentially, the same will happen here

in 5 years the population should be:

P₅ = P₀e°⁶¹ˣ⁵ = 140e°⁶¹ˣ⁵ = 2,956.15 ≈ 2,956

in 10 years the population will be:

P₁₀ = P₀e°⁶¹ˣ¹⁰ = 140e°⁶¹ˣ¹⁰ = 62,420.09 ≈ 62,420

when you are using exponential growth rates, we have to assume that r will always remain constant

Logan can read at a rate of 2/3 page per minute. At that rate, how many pages can he read in 2 hours?
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

240- 360

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find out how many minutes in an hour which is 60. Then multiply it by 2 for 2 hours to get 120. Then you multiply 2x120 to get 240. Then you multiply 3x120 to get 360.

I'm not sure if this is correct but this is how I would go about it. :)

It took a skydive 6 seconds to drop 720feet. What is the rate (in feet per/second) of the skydive's drop?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

120ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that there is no acceleration, divide the amount of feet (720) with the time (6 seconds):

720 ft/6 sec = 120 ft/1 sec

For every second, the skydiver drops 120 ft.

120ft/sec.
