-2+4-3+8-2-0.5 = -7.5+12
-7.5+12 = 4.5
4.5/6 (number of months) = 0.75
0.75 = -3/4
-3/4 is your answer. :)
Answer:
x= 3, y= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+3y= 9
x= 25÷7 + 2÷7 y
5(25÷7 +2÷7 y)
5( 25÷7 +2÷7 y ) + 3y= 9
y= -2
x= 25÷7 + 2÷7 x (-2)
x= 3
In 1970, a record 1.5 inches of rain fell in one minute at Brasse Terre, Guadalupe in the Caribbean. At this rate how much rain fell in 3 seconds or 0.05 of a minute? A 3 inches... B 0.075 inch... C 0.75 inch... D 30 inch. Pick one. Evan chose D as the correct answer. How did he get that answer?
Answer:

Option B is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given.
The rain fall rate is 1.5 inches per minute.
How much rain fall in 3 second or 0.05 of minute?
First we find rain fall rate in one second.

So, 0.025 inches of rain fall in one second.
Therefore, the rain fall in 3 second is

The rain fall in 3 second is 0.075 inches.
If you chose option D is correct
If the rain fall is continue to 20 min at the rate of 1.5 inches per min, then the rain fall will be 30 inches.
The rain fall in 3 second is 0.075 inches.
