Answer: B. y=2/5 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer the question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>2 out of every 5 balloons are red </em>
  • <em>Number of balloons: x </em>
  • <em>Number of red balloons: y </em>

Since 2 out of every 5 balloons are red, the ratio for red balloons is equal to 2/5. if we multiply that ration by the number of balloons he uses (x), we will obtain the number of red balloons (y).

Mathematically speaking:

y=2/5 x

The correct option is B.

swat32

Answer:

II case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a catering company prepared and served 300 meals at an anniversary celebration last week using eight workers.

The week before, six workers prepared and served 240 meals at a wedding reception.

Productivity is normally measured by number of outputs/number of inputs

Here we can measure productivity as

no of meals served/no of workers

In the I case productivity =\frac{300}{8} \\=37.5

In the II case productivity = \frac{240}{6} \\=40

Obviously II case productivity is more as per worker 40 meals were served which is more than 37.5 meals per worker in the I case.

Jerome went on a hike. He climbed three-fourths of a mile in two-thirds of an hour. What was his hiking speed in miles per hour?
OlgaM077 [116]
You could do this with fractions. I'll do decimals later.

d = 3/4 mile
t = 2/3 hour
r = ????


r = 3/4 // 2/3 Invert and multiply the denominator
r = 3/4 * 3/2 = 9/8 = 1 1/8

If your calculator handles fractions, you can use it to do this. If not you can change this to a decimal.
d = 3/4 = 0.75 miles
t = 2/3 hour = 0.666666666 hours.
r = ???

d = r*t
r = d/t
r = 0.75 / 0.66666667
r = 1.125 miles / hour
which gives you exactly the same answer 1.125 = 1 1/8

Total internal energy increases by 1760 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion.

It is calculated as

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the hammer in this problem:

m = 2.50 kg

v = 65.0 m/s

So its kinetic energy is

KE=\frac{1}{2}(2.50)(65)^2=5281 J

Then the problem says that 1/3 of the hammer's kinetic energy is converted into internal energy: therefore, the total internal energy increases by

\frac{1}{3}KE=\frac{1}{3}(5281)=1760 J
