The area of a rectangle is 5/6 square foot. The width is 2/3 foot. How many times greater is the length than the width? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given as 5/6 square foot.

The width is given as 2/3 foot

But area if a Rectangle = Lenght × width

A = Lenght x width

5/6= Lenght × 2/3

If we make Lenght subject of the formula we have

lenght= (5/6) / (2/3)

length = (5×3)/(6×2)

Lenght= 5/4

To calculate the number of times greater is the length than the width we take the ratio of Lenght and width

Lenght / width = (5/4) / (2/3)

= (5×3)/(4×2)

= 15/8

Hence the number of times greater is the length than the width is 15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube has 6 square faces, so each face would have area 200 sq in/6=33.33 sq in

Since the area of each face equals the square of the sides, the edge of the cube would be sqrt%2833.33sq+in%29= approx. 5.77 in

You notice a hot air balloon descending. The elevation h (in feet) of the balloon is modeled by the function h(x)=−11x+330, where x is the time (in seconds) since you first noticed the hot air balloon.

Graph the function and specify its domain and range. Then interpret the slope and intercepts of the graph.

Answers

Answer:

1) Please find attached, the graph of the function

The domain of the function is 0 ≤ x ≤ 30

The range of the function is 330 ≥ x ≥ 0

2) The slope of the given equation, shows that the elevation decreases, by (-)11 feet for each increase in time by one second

3) The y-intercept gives the initial elevation of the balloon at time t = 0 seconds

The x-intercept gives the final elevation of the balloon when it lands at time t = 30 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The function modelling the height of the balloon is h(x) = -11x + 330

Where;

x = The time of elevation of the balloon

The data for the graphing derived from Microsoft Excel are as follows

x    [tex]{}[/tex]   h(x)

0    [tex]{}[/tex]   330

5    [tex]{}[/tex]   275

10    [tex]{}[/tex]  220

15    [tex]{}[/tex]  165

20    [tex]{}[/tex]  110

25    [tex]{}[/tex]  55

30    [tex]{}[/tex]   0

Please find attached, the graph of the function

The domain of the function is 0 ≤ x ≤ 30

The range of the function is 330 ≥ x ≥ 0

Comparing the given function to the general equation of a straight line, y = m·x + c, we have that the slope, m = -11

2) The slope of a straight line graph gives the rate of change of the dependent variable, per unit change in the independent variable

Therefore, the slope of the given equation, -11 gives the rate of change of the function per unit increase in the independent variable x

Therefore, the elevation decreases, by (-)11 feet for each increase in time by one second

3) The y-intercept gives the initial elevation of the balloon at time t = 0 seconds

The x-intercept gives the final elevation of the balloon when it lands at time t = 30 seconds

Pat’s Painting Company charges a $125 painting fee, plus $17.50 per hour. Write and solve an equation to determine how many hours the company worked if they were paid $221.25 for one job.

Answers

Answer:

5.728 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

$225.25 - $125 =

$100.25

$100.25/ $17.50 =

5.728 hours

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hours worked

17.5x + 125 = 221.24

17.5x = 221.25 - 125

17.5x = 96.25

x = 96.25/17.5

x = 5.5 hours

Andrew is descending 57 feet underwater while scuba diving. If he descends at a rate of 3 feet per second, how many seconds will it take Andrew to descend the full distance?

Answers

Answer: 19 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Andrew is descending 57 feet underwater while scuba diving and that he descends at a rate of 3 feet per second.

The number of seconds that it will take Andrew to descend the full distance will be 57 divided by 3. This will be:

= 57/3

= 19 seconds

It'll take Andrew 19 seconds to descend the full distance

A swim coach wants to test whether practicing with swim paddles improves swimmers' breaststroke times in the 100-

meter relay race. He asks the first member of the relay team to continue swimming without paddles. He asks the other

three members of the relay team to swim with paddles for two weeks. He records the swim times of the relay teams with

and without paddles. Which group of an experiment are the other three members of the relay team part of?

-single-blind

-confounding

-control

-experimental

Answers

Answer: experimental

Step-by-step explanation:

In a research design such as the one described in the scenario above, participants are separated into two distinct groups. The hypothesis (if swimming with paddles is faster than without paddles) being tested is applied on one of the two groups while the other group remains as before. Hence, the group which receives the treatment which is to be tested (those who swim with paddles) are called the experimental group. The other group of participants who continue to swim without paddles are the control group.

Hence, the other group of three member who were asked to swim with paddles for two weeks are the experimental group because they are the ones who received the actual treatment in the experiment.

Jo's mother, Anne, is four times as old as Jo. In four years time, Anne will be three times as old as Jo. How old is Jo? (this is an easier version of a riddle we'll do in AP CS)

Answers

Answer:

Jo's age = x = 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Jo's age = x

Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x

In four years time, Anne will be three times as old as Jo.

Jo's age =3( x + 4)

Jo's mother, Anne's age = 4x + 4

How old is Jo?

Equate Jo's age and his mother's age

3(x + 4) = 4x + 4

3x + 12 = 4x + 4

3x - 4x = 4 - 12

-x = - 8

Divide both sides by -1

x = 8

Therefore,

Jo's age = x = 8 years
