Grandpa mick opened a pint of ice cream. He gave youngest grandchild 1/5 of the ice cream and his middle grandchild 1/4 of the r

emaining ice cream. Then, he gave his oldest grandchild 1/3 of the ice cream that was left after serving the others. Who got the most ice cream? What fraction of the pint of ice cream will be left if grandpa mick serves himself the same amount as the second grandchild?

Answer:

All the children and grandpa mick all had the same fraction of ice cream.

$\frac{1}{5}$ fraction of the pint of ice cream will be left if grandpa mick serves himself the same amount as the second grandchild.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of ice cream given to youngest grandchild = $\frac{1}{5}$

Amount of an ice cream left after given to youngest grand child= $1-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{4}{5}$

Amount of ice cream given to middle grandchild = $\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{4}{5}=\frac{4}{20}=\frac{1}{5}$

Amount of ice cream left after given to middle grandchild :

$\frac{4}{5}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{3}{5}$

Amount of ice cream given to oldest grandchild = $\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{3}{5}=\frac{1}{5}$

Amount of ice cream taken by grandpa mick= $\frac{1}{5}$

Amount of ice cream left after serving all including grandpa himself:

$\frac{3}{5}-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{5}$

All the children and grandpa mick all had the same fraction of ice cream.

$\frac{1}{5}$ fraction of the pint of ice cream will be left if grandpa mick serves himself the same amount as the second grandchild.

Rectangle ABCD with coordinates A(1,1), B(4,1), C(4,2) and D(1,2) dilates with respect to the origin to give rectangle A’B’C’D’.

Delvig [45]

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the distance AB with the formula for calculate the distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Then, substituting the coordinates of the points A(1,1) and B(4,1), you get:

$AB=\sqrt{(4-1)^2+(1-1)^2}=3$

You know that A'B'=6, then the scale factor of dilation can be calculated with:

$k=\frac{A'B'}{AB}$

Substituting values, you get:

$k=\frac{6}{3}\\\\k=2$

This matches with the option C.

A County Superintendent of Highways is interested in the numbers of different types of vehicles that regularly travel within his

Karolina [17]

Answer:

a) The ratio of passenger cars to pickup trucks is $\frac{5}{7}$

The ratio of pickup trucks to passenger cars is $\frac{7}{5}$

The ratio of passenger cars to total vehicles is $\frac{5}{12}$

The ratio of pickup trucks to total vehicles is $\frac{7}{12}$

b) The tape diagram is shown in the attached picture.

c) The tape diagram has 12 equal-sized parts.

d) The total quantity that the tape diagram represent is 192.

e) The value of each individual part of the tape is 16.

f) There were registered 80 passenger cars and 112 pickup trucks.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) According to the information in the problem, that for every 5 passenger cars registered, there were 7 pickup trucks registered.

So the ratios are:

Passenger cars to pickup trucks: $\frac{5}{7}$

Pickup trucks to passenger cars: $\frac{7}{5}$

If we calculate the total vehicles: 5+7=12

So, we can get two ratios more:

Passenger cars to total vehicles is $\frac{5}{12}$

Pickup trucks to total vehicles is $\frac{7}{12}$

b) We make a tape diagram where each box represents a vehicle so we draw 5 boxes for cars and 7 boxes for pickup trucks.

c) If we count the total quantity of boxes, there are 12.

d) This diagram represents the total quantity of registrations in August which is 192.

e) To get the representation of each part of the tape diagram we have to divide 192 by 12. 192÷12=16

f) Finally, we multiply 16 by the number of boxes of each type of vehicle:

Cars: 16×5=80

Pickup trucks: 16×7=112

Point H is the circumcenter of triangle DEF.

Crank

Circumcenter and circumcirle are shown in the attachment. Assume that the triangle is DEF instead of ABC and that the intersection of perpendiculars is H.
The definition of the circumcenter of a triangle is defined as the point of intersection of all the perpendicular bisectors in the triangle.
The circumcircle passes by all three of the triangle's vertices.

Based on the above, the right choiceS will be:
Point H is the center of the circle that passes through points D, E, and F.
HD = HE

A log splitter uses a pump with hydraulic oil to push a piston, attached to which is a chisel. The pump can generate a pressure

faust18 [17]

we are given

The pump can generate a pressure of 2.3x107 pa

so,

$p=2.3*10^7$

a radius of 0.041 m

so,

$r=0.041m$

a stroke lasting 29 s, the piston moves 0.57 m

so,

$h=0.57m$

$t=29s$

Firstly, we will find area

$A=\pi r^2$

$A=\pi (0.041)^2$

$A=0.00528$

now, we can use power formula

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

F=pA

W=Fh

so, W=pAh

we can plug it

$P=\frac{p*A*h}{t}$

now, we can plug values

$P=\frac{2.3*10^7*0.00528*0.57}{29}$

now, we can simplify it

Power=2386.92414 watt.........Answer
