Benito and Tyler are painting opposite sides of the same fence. Tyler has already painted 19 ½ feet of his side of the fence whe

n Benito starts painting. Part A: How long will it take for the two sides of the fence to have an equal number of feet painted? 80 minutes How many feet will be painted on Benito's side of the fence when the two sides have an equal number of feet painted? 45 feet Part B: Tyler claims that because he started painting first, he will finish painting his side of the fence before Benito finishes painting his side. Is this true? Explain. Part C: The painter who finishes first gets to rest while the other painter finishes. How long will the painter who finishes first get to rest? Explain.

Answer:

Part A: The time it will take for both of them to painted equal number of feet is 4.875 minutes

The number of feet Benito will have painted when the two sides have equal length is 73.125 feet

Part B: It is not true that Tyler will finish painting his side of the fence before Benito finishes painting his

Part C: Time to rest is 1.864 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The length of fence Tyler already painted when Benito started = 19 ¹/₂ feet

Benito paints 15 feet/minute

Tyler paints 11 feet/minute

Length of fence = 150 feet

Part A:

The time it will take for both of them to painted equal number of feet is given as follows;

11×t + 19.5 = 15×t

4×t = 19.5

t = 19.5/4= 4.875 minutes

The time it will take for both of them to painted equal number of feet = 4.875 minutes

The length Benito will have painted when the two sides have equal length = 15 × 4.875 = 73.125 feet

Part B: The time it will take Tyler to finish painting his side of the fence is given as follows;

11 × t + 19.5 = 150

t = (150 - 19.5)/11 ≈ 11.864 minutes

While the time it will take Benito to finish painting his side of the fence is given as follows;

15 × t  = 150

t = 150/15 ≈ 10 minutes

Therefore it is not true that Tyler will finish painting his side of the fence before Benito finishes painting his

Part C: Given that Benito finishes before Tyler, the length of time Benito gets to rest is given as follows;

Time to rest = Time Tyler takes to finish - Time Benito takes to finish

Time to rest = 11.864 - 10 = 1.864 minutes.

Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola that costs $2.00 per pound. The walnuts cost $6 per pound. He uses the equation 2x + 6y = 12 to represent the total cost, where x represents the number of pounds of granola and y represents the number of pounds of walnuts. He solves the equation for y, the number of pounds of walnuts he can buy.

Given:

2x + 6y = 12

where

x = number of pounds of granola y = number of pounds of walnuts

The correct solution to the problem

x = 3 pounds

2x + 6y = 12

2(3) + 6y = 12

6 + 6y = 12

Subtract 6 from both sides

6 + 6y - 6 = 12 - 6

6y = 6

Divide both sides by 6

y = 6/6

= 1

y = 1 pound

Tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6.

Sergio [31]
A]
Exponential function is given by the form:
y=a(b)ˣ
where:
a=initial value
b=growth factor
From the question:
a=$8000, b=1.015, 
thus the exponential growth function of this situation is:
y=8000(1.015)ˣ

b] The value of the collection after 7 years will be:
x=7 years
Using the formula:
y=8000(1.015)ˣ
plugging the values we get:
y=8000(1.015)⁷
y=8,878.76

Answer: $8,878.76

If 2.5 mol of dust particles were laid end to end along the equator, how many times would they encircle the planet? The circumfe
Natalka [10]

Answer:

They encircle the planet 3.76\times 10^{11} times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

We have 2.5 mole of dust particles and the Avogadro's number is 6.022\times 10^{23}

Thus, the number of dust particles is:

2.5\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=15.055\times 10^{23}

Diameter of a dust particles is 10μm and the circumference of earth is 40,076 km.

Convert the measurement in meters.

Diameter: 10\mu m\times \frac{10^{-6}m}{\mu m} =10^{-5}m

If we line up the particles the distance they could cover is:

15.055\times 10^{23}\times 10^{-5}=15.055\times 10^{18}=1.5055\times 10^{19}

Circumference in meters:

40,076km\times \frac{1000m}{1km}=40,076,000 m

Therefore,

\frac{1.5055\times 10^{19}}{40,076,000} = 3.76\times 10^{11}

Hence, they encircle the planet 3.76\times 10^{11} times.
