An indoor water park has two giant buckets that slowly fill with 1000 gallons of water before dumping it on the people below. On

e bucket dumps water every 16 minutes. The other bucket dumps water every 14 minutes. It is currently 3:25 P.M. and both buckets dumped water 5 minutes ago. Find the next two times that both buckets dump water at the same time.

Find the least common multiple of 14 and 16.

14 = 7*2   ----> multiply by 8 ----> 8*7*2 = 112
16 = 8*2 ----> multiply by 7  -----> 7*8*2 = 112

The LCM is 112. This means it will be 112 minutes before they dump water at the same time.

112 min = 1 hr 52 min

3:20 + 1hr 52 min = 5:12

For the next time, add another 112 minutes

Answers: 5:12 PM  and  7:04

For this, you want to find the least common multiple of 14 and 16 which is 112 (minutes)
now just add this to the time given which gives you

A jar of 150 jelly beans contains 22 red jelly beans, 38 yellow, 20 green, 28 purple, 26 blue, and the rest are orange.Let B = t
pentagon [3]

Answer:

P(R\ and\ B) = 0.0256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Red = 22

Yellow = 38

Green = 20

Purple = 28

Blue = 26

Orange = 16

Required

Determine the probability of red then blue jelly? i.e. P(R and B)

From the question, we understand that the red jelly bean was not replaced. This means that the number of jelly beans reduced by 1 after the picking of the red jelly bean

So, we have:

P(R\ and\ B) = P(R)\ and\ P(B)

This is then solved further as:

P(R\ and\ B) = P(R)\ *\ P(B)

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{n(R)}{Total}\ *\frac{n(B)}{Total - 1}

The probability has a denominator of Total - 1 because the number of jelly beans reduced by 1 after the picking of the red jelly bean

The equation becomes:

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{22}{150}\ *\frac{26}{150- 1}

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{22}{150}\ *\frac{26}{149}

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{22*26}{150*149}

P(R\ and\ B) = \frac{572}{22350}

P(R\ and\ B) = 0.02559284116

P(R\ and\ B) = 0.0256

(05.03)Marcus loves baseball and wants to create a home plate for his house. Marcus needs to calculate the area of the home plat
kifflom [539]

Answer:

83 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer, you can see the attached file for clarity.

Because we have a rectangle measuring 8 inches by 5 inches, we can use the area of the rectangle as follows:

A1=base*height=(8 inches)*(5 inches)=40 square inches

Now, because we have a triangle over the square side of 8 inches long, we can divide the triangle into 2 rectangle triangles, each of them with a base of 4 inches and a height of 7 inches, obtaining:

A2=2*(base*height/2)=2*(4 inches)*(7 inches)/2=28 square inches

Doing the same for the other triangle we get 2 triangles with a base of 2.5 inches and a height of 6 inches, obtaining:

A3=2*(base*height/2)=2*(2.5 inches)*(6 inches)/2=15 square inches

The addition of all areas is:

A=A1+A2+A3=40 square inches + 28 square inches + 15 square inches

A=83 square inches.

In conclusion we have an area of 83 square inches.

Choose which statements are true about Pi. Check all that apply. Piis a whole number. Piis double the radius. Piis approximately
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Answer in explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we would be examining the validity of some statements on the number π(pi)

π Is a whole number?

This is wrong, π is a fraction of 22 to 7 parts I.e 22/7

π Is double the radius?

This is wrong. It is the diameter that is double the radius

π Is approximately 3.14?

This is correct to an extent. The actual value in decimal is around 3.142857142857143 which makes the 3.14 somehow correct

π represents the ratio of the circumference of the circle to the diameter?

This is correct.

Mathematically, circumference C = π * diameter D

Hence C/D = π

π Is approximately 22/7?

This is correct. This is the ratio used for π
