I will rewrite the question for better understanding:

Ashley recently opened a store that uses only natural ingredients. She wants to advertise her products by distributing bags of samples in her neighborhood. It takes Ashley 2/3 of a minute to prepare one bag. It takes each of her friends 75% longer to prepare a bag. How many hours will it take Ashley and 4 of her friends to prepare 1575 bags of samples?

Answer:

  • <em><u>5.3 hours</u></em>

Explanation:

<u>1) Time it takes Ashley to preprate one bag: </u>

  • 2/3 min

<u>2) Time it takes each friend of Ashley: 75% more than 2/3 min</u>

  • 75% × 2/3 min = 0.75 × 2/3 min = 3/4 × 2/3 min= 2/4 min = 1/2 min = 0.5 min
  • 2/3 min + 1/2 min = 7/6 min

<u>3) Time it takes Ashley and the 4 friends working along to prepare one bag:</u>

  • Convert each time into a rate, since you can set that the total rate of Ashley along with her four friends is equal to the sum of each rate:

  • Rate of Ashley: 1 bag / (2/3) min = 3/2 bag/min

  • Rate of each friend: 1 bag / (7/6) min = 6/7 bag/min

  • Rate of Ashley and 4 friends = 3/2 bag/min + 4 × 6/7 bag/min = (3/2 +24/7) bag/min = 69/14 bag/min

<u>4) Time of prepare 1575 bags of samples:</u>

  • time = number of bags / number of bags per min = 1,575 bags / (69/14) bags/min = 319.56 min

<u>5) Convert minutes to hours:</u>

  • 356.56 min × 1 hour / 60 min = 5.3 hours

Amber believes triangle ABC and triangle GFE are congruent. She has recorded the measures of some of the angles and the lengths
Nostrana [21]
If the triangles are congruent, the angle opposite the 32 cm side will have the same measure as angle E, 40°. An appropriate choice for this question is ...
  b. The measure of c is 40.


_____
In actual fact, the triangles not only are not congruent, they cannot exist. The total of sides FG and FE (82 cm) is less than the length of side GE (38 in). 82 cm is about 32.3 inches, about 5.7 inches too short.

Even if you overlook the units problem, the sum of squares of the sides of the triangle is 32² +38² = 2468, somewhat short of 50² = 2500. That is, the largest angle is slightly more than 90°. It is closer to 90.754° ≈ 91°.

You can label a diagram any way you want, but that doesn't mean the numbers are consistent or sensible.

The green goober a wildly unpopular hero mixes 3 L of yellow paint was 5 L of blue plate to make a leader is a special green pai
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

<u>The equation can be y = 3b/5 or b = 5y/3</u>

Correct statement and question:

The Green Goober, a wildly unpopular superhero, mixes 3 liters of yellow paint with 5 liters of blue paint to make 8 liters of special green paint for his costume.  

Write an equation that relates the amounts (in liters) of yellow paint (y) and blue paint (b) needed to make the Green Goober's special green paint.

Source:

Previous question that can be found at brainly

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y to be the amount of liters of yellow paint needed to make the Green Goober's special green paint.

Let b to be the amount of liters of blue paint needed to make the Green Goober's special green paint.

We know that:

y:b = 3:5

Therefore,

5y = 3b, dividing by 5 at both sides we have:

y = 3b/5

And also dividing by 3 at both sides we have:

<u>b = 5y/3</u>

Both equations relate the amounts (in liters) of yellow paint and blue paint needed to make the Green Goober's special green paint.

Add the two expressions. 4.6x−3 and −5.3x+9 Enter your answer, in simplified form, in the box. PLEASE ANSWER FAST THIS IS A BIG
Ivan
To add the two expressions, we can write it as:

4.6x-3 + (-5.3x+9)

We can distribute the plus sign (which means just drop the parenthesis in this case):

4.6x-3-5.3x+9

Now, we can simplify by combining like terms:

-0.7x+6
