Answer: 2b = 3g

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite basic to solve, below is a Step by step explanation:

from the given question we have that;

  • A fire hydrant with a blue cap provides water at a rate of 1,500 gallons per minute.

       i.e  b = 1500 gallons per minute

  • A fire hydrant with a green cap provides water at a rate of 1,000 gallons per minute.

          g = 1000 gallons per minute.

Our questions tells us to write the equation which  relates the flow of water from the blue hydrant, b, to the flow from the green hydrant, g.

ANS:

Since flow from blue  hydrant b = 1500 gallons per minute, we have that

b = 3 * 500

b = 3 * 1000/2 g

b = 3/2 g

equation  gives 2b = 2g

cheers i hope this helped !!

Gina has 5 2/6 feet of silver ribbon and 2 4/6 of gold ribbon. how much more silver ribbon does gina have than golden ribbon?
MrRissso [65]
To answer the question above, we are simply to subtract the length of the gold ribbon which is 2 4/6 ft from the length of the silver ribbon, 5 2/6 feet. Mathematically,
                                5 2/6 feet - 2 4/6 feet = 8/3 feet 
Therefore, Gina has 8/3 feet more of the silver ribbon than the golden ribbon.

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

y=7600(5^(t/22))

Step-by-step explanation:

This is going to be an exponential function as it grows rapidly.

This type of question can be solved using the formula y=a(r^x), where a is the inital amount, r the factor by which the amount increases and x is the unit of time after which the amount increases.

x=t/22

a=7600

r=5

∴y=7600(5^(t/22))

Exams are approaching and Helen is allocating time to studying for exams. She feels that with the appropriate amount of studying
svp [43]

Answer: 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Event of getting an A in Marketing class.

S = Event of getting an A in Spanish class,

i.e. P(M) = 0.80 , P(S) = 0.60 and P(M∩S)=0.45

Required probability = P(neither M nor S)

= P(M'∩S')

= P(M∪S)'                                 [∵P(A'∩B')=P(A∪B)']

=1- P(M∪S)                               [∵P(A')=1-P(A)]

= 1- (P(M)+P(S)- P(M∩S))   [∵P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)]

= 1- (0.80+0.60-0.45)

= 1- 0.95

= 0.05

hence, the probability that Helen does not get an A in either class= 0.05
