Answer:

  2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of speed and time is distance. If the distance is the same, then time is inversely proportional to speed. At 60/50 = 6/5 times the speed, the return trip will take 5/6 times the time:

  (5/6)(3 hours) = 2.5 hours . . . time for return trip

Answer:

Smallest number = 3500

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding of numbers involve replacing numbers with simpler numbers. In order to round a number to the nearest thousand, the last 3 digits of the number should be considered. If the last 3 digits are less than 500, the number is rounded down(the thousand figure is unaffected), but if the last 3 digits are greater or equal to 500, the number is rounded up.

In this case, Yuri is thinking of a 4-digit whole number and he rounds his number to the nearest thousand. Since his answer is 4000, the smallest number yuri could be thinking of would be 3500 and the highest number he could be thinking of is 4499.

Thus, the smallest number Yuri could be thinking of is 3500

It takes 8 minutes for Byron to fill the kiddie pool in the backyard using only a handheld hose. When his younger sister is impa
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Let us say that the procedure of completely filling up the pool with water is called “1 job”. Therefore the rates of the equipment in doing the job would be:

<span>Rate of handheld hose = 1 job / 8 minutes                  ---> 1</span>

<span>Rate of lawn sprinkler = r                                             ---> 2</span>

<span>Rate of the two combines = 1 job/ 5 minutes               ---> 3</span>

So we are to find the equation to use, in this case, we simply have to add equations 1 and 2 to get 3:

1 / 8 + r = 1 / 5

Multiplying both sides by 5:

<span>(5 / 8) + 5 r = 1                                                               ---> ANSWER</span>
