Nicole is using a ¾ cup scooper to scoop some potting soil from a big bag. The bag contains 9 cups of potting soil. How many times will she have to scoop to use up the entire bag of potting soil?

Answers

Answer:

12 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Amount of potting soil in bag = 9 cups

Size of scooping cup = 3/4 cup

The number of times scooping will be done to use entire bag of potting soil will be ;

(Amount of potting soil in bag ÷ size of scooping cup)

(9 ÷ 3/4)

9/ 1 * 4/3

= 36/3

= 12 times

Hence, scooping will have to be done 12 times in other to use entire bag if potting soil.

Hannah has another candle that is 14 cm tall. How fast must it burn in order to also be 6 cm tall after 4 hours? Explain your thinking.

Answers

Answer:

The candle must burn at 2cm per hour in order to be 6cm tall after 4 hours. I know this because the candle has to burn 8cm in 4 hours and that amounts to 2cm per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets solve!

We have to find out how much of the candle needs to be burned!

14cm - 6cm = 8cm

The candle must burn 8cm in 4 hours!

Lets find out how much the candle burns in 1 hour.

[tex]\frac{8cm}{4hours}[/tex]= 2cm per hour

The candle must burn at 2cm per hour in order to be 6cm tall after 4 hours. I know this because the candle has to burn 8cm in 4 hours and that amounts to 2cm per hour.

As an exercise for her students, she had them graph her total weekly pay in dollars as it relates to her number of hours worked. Now you will do the same. (6 points: Part I - 1 point; Part II - 2 points; Part III - 1 point; Part IV - 2 points)
Part I: What equation models the tutor's total weekly pay y in dollars as it relates to the number of hours x that she has worked if the tutor has worked 40 hours or fewer?








Part II: What equation models the tutor's total weekly pay y in dollars as it relates to the number of hours x that she has worked if the tutor has worked more than 40 hours?








Part III: Combine the slope-intercept equations found in parts I and II into one piecewise equation.








Part IV: Graph the tutor's total weekly pay in dollars as it relates to her number of hours worked by using the piecewise equation from part III and the coordinate grid below.

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Part I

When x ≤ 40, the equation is

y = 12xPart II

When x > 40

y = 12*40 + 24(x - 40) ⇒ y = 24x - 960 + 480   ⇒y = 24x - 480Part III

[tex]y = \left \{ {12x, if x < or = 40 \atop {24x - 480, if x>40}} \right. \\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles add up to be 180 degrees, so you could find the value of the second angle to be 110 degrees, but it is asking for the x value so you would choose 130 since when you subtract 20 from 130 you get 110.

Last year's computer models were priced at $1,850. They are now discounted 20%. What is the new retail price to the nearest dollar of that computer? $370 $1,480 $1,510 $1,830

Answers

Answer:

$1480

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given that the price last year was $1850

and now the discount is 20%

we first need to solve for 20% of $1850

=20/100*$1850

=0.2*$1850

=$370

This means that the price was reduced by $370

so the new retail price is calculated as

=$1850-$370

=$1480

NEED ANSWER NOW!!!WORTH LIFE SENTENCE!!WILL PAY FOR MOST USEFUL ANSWER!! Background information: This passage was written by Zhang Han, a member of the Ming administration. Merchants boast that their wisdom and ability are such as to give them a free hand in affairs. They believe that they know all the possible transformations in the universe and therefore can calculate all the changes in the human world, and that the rise and fall of prices are under their command. These merchants do not know how insignificant their wisdom and ability really are. . . . . . . If farmers do not work, there will be an insufficiency of food; if craftsmen do not work, there will be an insufficiency of tools; if merchants do not work, circulation of the three necessities will be cut off, which will cause food and materials to be insufficient. Foreigners are recalcitrant and their greed knows no bounds. . . . As to the foreigners in the Southeast, their goods are useful to us just as ours are to them. To use what one has to exchange for what one does not have is what trade is all about. What does Zhang believe about merchants? Merchants transform the economy by interacting with foreigners. Merchants are greedy, insignificant, and boastful. Merchants hold a lower position in society, but trade can be valuable. Merchants are wise and command the economy 7.
