\bf \begin{array}{ccll} ft^2&minute\\ \cline{1-2} 50&\frac{1}{5}\\\\ x&6 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{50}{x}=\cfrac{~~\frac{1}{5}~~}{6}\implies \cfrac{50}{x}=\cfrac{~~\frac{1}{5}~~}{\frac{6}{1}}\implies \cfrac{50}{x}=\cfrac{1}{5}\cdot \cfrac{1}{6} \\\\\\ \cfrac{50}{x}=\cfrac{1}{30}\implies 1500=x

Answer:

60 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : a water pipe leak floods 50 square feet every 1/5 minute.

To find :  what is the flooded area after 6 minutes.

Solution : We have given

In \frac{1}{5} minute water pipe leak flood = 50 square feet.

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 50 * \frac{1}{5].

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 50 * \frac{1}{5}* 6 square feet.

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 10 * 6 square feet.

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 60 square feet.

Therefore,

60 square feet.

Most graduate business schools require applicants to take the gmat. scores on this test are approximately normally distributed w
Harman [31]
We are looking for the probability :
P(X > n)=0.05
Transform the law to standard normal like this:
P(\dfrac{X-545}{100}> \dfrac{n-545}{100})=0.05
The above formula is equivalent to this one:
P(\dfrac{X-545}{100}< \dfrac{n-545}{100})=0.95
From normal law table, we read the value of \dfrac{X-545}{100}.
\dfrac{X-545}{100}=1.7
Solving the above equation for the score n:
X-545=170
X=715, it is the score we are looking for.

How many 4/5 cup servings are in 4/9 of a cup of yogurt
kolbaska11 [484]
For this question, you need to understand how to divide fractions.First we line up our fractions appropriately:
4/9 ÷ 4/5 = ?         (You want to divide 4/9 by 4/5)
4/9 × 5/4 = ?         (Now we use the reciprocal of 4/5 and multiply instead of divide)
4 x 5 = 20 and 9 x 4 = 36.       (Cross multiply.)
20/36 = 5/9.           (Simplify to lowest terms.)
So, 4/9 divided by 4/5 is 5/9!But 5/9 is more than 4/9, so the answer is 0 :PCorrect me if I'm wrong.
