On average, water flows over a particular water fall at a rate of 2.05 x 105 cubic feet per second. One cubic foot of water weighs 62.4 lb. Calculate the rate of water flow in tons of water per day. (1 ton = 2200 lb)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5.024 × 10^8 tons /day

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to deal with conversion

We are told in the question that:

On average, water flows over a particular water fall at a rate of 2.05 x 10^5 cubic feet per second.

Water flow rate = 2.05 × 10^5 ft³/s

From the question,

One cubic foot of water weighs 62.4 lb.

1 ft³ = 62.4 lb

1 ton = 2200 lb

We are to calculate the flow rate in tons per day

Hence,

1 ft³ = 62.4 lb

2.05 × 10^5 ft³ =

Cross Multiply

2.05 × 10^5 × 62.4

= 12792000lb

Hence the water flow rate = 12792000lb/s

From the question,

2200 lb = 1 ton

12792000 Ib =

Cross Multiply

12792000lb × 1 ton/2200 lb

= 5814.5454545 tons

Hence the water flow rate = 5814.5454545 tons/second

We want the flow rate to be in tons/day

1 ton / second = 86400 tons / day

5814.5454545 tons/second = x tons/ day

Cross Multiply

x = 5814.5454545 tons/second × 86400 tons /day/ 1 ton / second

= 502376727.27 tons/day

= 5.0237672727 × 10^8 tons/day

Approximately ≈ 5.024 × 10^8 tons /day

Therefore, the rate of water flow in tons of water per day is 5.024 × 10^8 tons of water /day

In a certain grocery store, strawberries cost $4.96 per pound ( 4.96 dollars/lb d o l l a r s / l b ). What is the cost per ounce?

Answers

Cost of the strawberry will be $0.31 per ounce.

   Given in the question,

Strawberry cost → $4.96 per pound

We can write the cost as [tex]\frac{4.96\text{ Dollars}}{1\text{Pound}}[/tex].

Since, 1 pound = 16 ounces

To convert the cost of the strawberry in dollars per ounce, multiply the price by the conversion factor [tex]\frac{1\text{ Pound}}{16\text{ Ounces}}[/tex].

So the cost of strawberry = [tex]\frac{4.96\text{ Dollars}}{1\text{Pound}}\times \frac{1\text{ Pound}}{16\text{ Ounces}}=0.31\text{ Dollars per ounce}[/tex]

    Therefore, cost of the strawberry will be $0.31 per ounce.

what is 0.142857 repeating as a fraction????

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]n= 0.142857[/tex]

[tex]1000000n= 0.142857[/tex]

Move the decimal point using the 1000000n

You should get 142857.142857 repeating

Subtract n from both sides [tex]142857.142857- 0.142857[/tex]

You should get 142857 without the repeating decimal.

The equation is now: [tex]142857/999999[/tex] (fraction)

A cool trick to find out if you can reduce that is: [tex]1+4+2+8+5+7[/tex] (equals 27) is the answer to that addition a number divisible by three (yes). So the number 142857 is divisible by 3 which means that you can simplify the fraction.

You can use a calculator for 142857/3 (division) (unless your teacher says you can't)

You should get 47619

You should get[tex]47,619/333333[/tex]  (fraction).

I think you can divide that by 3 again. [tex]4+7+6+1+9[/tex] is 27, which is divisible by 3.

Again, you can use a calculator for 47619/3 (division) (unless your teacher says you can't)

You should get 15,873

You should get 15,873/111111 (fraction)

The repeating decimal 0.142857 is equivalent to the fraction 1/7.

Given that we need to convert a repeating decimal 0.142857 as a fraction.

The repeating decimal 0.142857 can be expressed as a fraction. To understand how to convert it, let's denote it as x:

x = 0.142857...

To convert this repeating decimal to a fraction, we can multiply x by a power of 10 to shift the decimal point and eliminate the repeating part.

Since there are six digits in the repeating block (142857), we can multiply x by 10⁶ to remove the repeating part:

10⁶ · x = 142857.142857...

Next, we subtract the original equation from the one above to eliminate the repeating part:

(10⁶ · x) - x = 142857.142857... - 0.142857...

Simplifying the equation:

999999x = 142857

Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 999999:

x = 142857 / 999999

Simplifying the fraction:

x = 1 / 7

Therefore, the repeating decimal 0.142857 is equivalent to the fraction 1/7.

Distance

The distance between two points A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) is given by:

[tex]AB=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}[/tex]

The coordinate of the triangle is A(0, 0), B(10, 0) and C(5, 12). Hence:

AB = 10 units

Answers

Answer:

Let's define x as the number of text messages send.

y as the number of 1,000 minutes talk per month.

(so we can write y = N/1000) where N is exactly the number of minutes that you talked that month.

> The equation for Dash is:

C1(x, y) = $80

>The equation for AB&C

C2(x,y) = $0,20*x + $55*y

> Horizon

C3(x,y) = $0.10*x + $75*y.

Now, which company you should go for?

Well, it depends on the values of x and y that you have.

if in your case you have x > y, you may want to go with Horizon, because the price per text is smaller.

if you usually talk, you may want to go with AB&C because the slope for y is smaller.

If you send a lot of texts and talk a lot, then Dash is the best option, because there is no dependence with the variables x, y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

So,

=> The sum of number and 15 is x + 15

=> Three times will be 3(x+15)

Given that it equals 24

So, the given condition is:

3(x+15) = 24

Resolving Parenthesis

3x + 45 = 24

Subtracting 45 to both sides

3x = 24 - 45

3x = -21

Dividing both sides by 3

x = -7

The answer is -7 since your multiplying 3x the sum

If M is the midpoint of XY, XM=2x+5 and YM=25, find XY.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since M is the midpoint of XY, this means that XM and MY must be equivalent from the definition of midpoint.

So:

[tex]XM=MY[/tex]

The entire length of the segment (XY) is:

[tex]XY=XM+MY[/tex]

We know that XM is equivalent to MY. Substitute MY for XM:

[tex]XY=MY+MY[/tex]

Combine like terms;

[tex]XY=2MY[/tex]

We are told that YM (or MY) is 25. So:
