To find the quotient 4 divided1/5 multiply 4 by

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing numbers by fractions, we can simply multiply the  umber by the reciprocal of the decimal. So,

4 ÷ 1/5 = 4 × (reciprocal of 1/5)

A reciprocal of a number is the same number written under 1. aka, 1 divided by that number, which simply is flipping the numerator and denominator of a number.

So the reciprocal of 1/5 is 5/1 = 5.

So 4 ÷ 1/5 = 4 × 5.

So your answer is 5.

The graph shows the proportional relationship between rainfall during the growing season and seasonal growth of a type of plant. What does the point ​(​8,6​) ​represent? If the plants grew 12 mm one​ season, how much rain​ fell?

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️The point (8, 6) represents seasonal plant growth of 6 mm with 8 cm of rainfall during the growing season.

✔️To determine how much rain fell if the plants grew 12 mm one season, find the value of x (rainfall) when y (plant growth) = 12.

From the graph, when y = 12, x = 16.

This means that when the plant grew 12 mm, 16 cm of rainfall was recorded.

Therefore:

If the plants grew 12 mm one season, 16 cm rainfall fell.

An object launched straight puwar from the ground level wiht an initional velocity of 32 feet per second.The formula H=32T-16T^2 gives it heigtht,h,in feet after t second. At what time does the object hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

2 secs after

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the object modeled by the eqaution;

H(t) = 32T - 16T² where;

T is the time in seconds

The object hits the ground when h(t)= 0

Substitute H = 0 into the equation and get t as shown;

0 =  32T - 16T²

0-32T = -16T²

-32T = -16T²

32T = 16T²

32 = 16T

T = 32/16

T = 2secs

Hence the object hits the ground after 2 secs

The sum of two numbers is 105. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller
number. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer: x=68, y=37

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the sum of two numbers is 105 would be x+y=105. You can say the larger number would be x and the smaller would be y. So, x=2y-6. then you plug that into the x in the first equation.

2y-6+y=105

3y-6=105

3y=111

y=37

Then you would plug in the y to one of the equations. I will do the second one but you can do either one.

x=2y-6

x=2*37-6

x=74-6

x=68

The sides of a square field are 28 meters. A sprinkler in the center of the field sprays a circular area with a diameter that corresponds to a side of the field. How much of the field is not reached by the sprinkler? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for π.

Answers

Answer:

168.24784 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square:

28 x 28=784 sq. m.

Area of the circle:

π(r²)=π(14)²=196π

    =615.75216

Area not covered by the sprinkler:

784-615.75216=168.24784 m²

Answer:

The sprinkler does not reach 168.56 m² of the field.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the circular area sprayed by the sprinkler.

A = πr² Use the formula.

A = π(14)² Substitute. Use 14 for r.

A ≈ 3.14 × 14² Substitute. Use 3.14 for π.

A ≈ 3.14 × 196 Evaluate the power.

A ≈ 615.44 Multiply.

The area of the circular area is about 615.44 ft².

Find the area of the square field.

A = s² Use the formula.

A = 28² Substitute. Use 28 for s.

A = 784 Evaluate the power.

The area of the square field is 784 m².

Find how much of the field is not reached by the sprinkler. Subtract the circular area sprayed by the sprinkler from the area of the square field.

784 − 615.44 = 168.56

You sold 27 tickets total. Some of the tickets were student tickets and the rest were adult tickers.
You collected $170 selling the tickets. If the student tickets cost $5 and the adult tickets cost $10.
how many student tickets did you sell?

Answers

Answer:

You sold 20 student tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total tickets sold = 27

Total amount collected = $170

Cost of student ticket = $5

Cost of adult ticket = $10

Let,

x be the number of students tickets sold

y be the number of adult tickets sold

x+y = 27          Eqn 1

5x+10y=170     Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 10

10(x+y=27)

10x+10y=270     Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

(10x+10y)-(5x+10y)=270-170

10x+10y-5x-10y=100

5x=100

Dividing both sides by 5

[tex]\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{100}{5}\\x=20[/tex]

Hence,

You sold 20 student tickets.
