topjm [15]

Answer:   The drive was 24.32% full when the transfer began.

 

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The rate of transferring file = 4.44 megabytes per second.

After 32 seconds, the amount of data on the drive = 384 megabytes  

The amount of transferred data = 32\times4.4=140.8 megabytes  

Therefore, the amount of data in the drive at the beginning is given by :-

\text{Beginning amount=Amount after 32 seconds -Amount transferred}\\\\\Rightarrrow\ \text{Beginning amount=}384-140.8=243.2

The drive had a maximum capacity of 1000 megabytes.

\frac{243.2}{1000}\times100=24.32\%

Hence, the drive was 24.32% full when the transfer began.

Martin had 7 pounds of grapes left, and he gave away 2 5 of them. Explain how to use compatible numbers to estimate the amount o
nalin [4]

Compatible numbers are numbers which are easy to do mental calculation. For example is when doing division like 25 and 5, 100 and 10, and 36 and 6.

First, we know that: 7 pounds=5 pounds + 2 pounds

                                or 7=5+2

In mathematics, the word “of” means to multiply. So:

                                grapes given away = 7  * (2/5)

Replacing 7 with 5 and 2:

                                                                = (5+2)*(2/5)

Using the distribution principle:

                                                =5*(2/5) + 2*(2/5)

                                                =2+ 4/5

                                =2 4/5

So grapes given away is 2 4/5 pounds.

Lerok [7]

(13-0.25x5)(12+4x5)=3,845
(13-0.25x6)(12+4x6)=2,845
so your answer is 3,845 because if Hirome sells them for $11.75 he makes $3845 if Hirome sold them for $11.50 he makes $2845.80 and if he sold them for $12.00 he would make $2464.00
