Ms. Wolfram's compost bin used for her garden is shaped like a rectangular prism. The bin is 4 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 9 inches tall. Ms. Wolfram has to fill 20% of the bin with brown material, like leaves, and 30% of the bin with green material, like vegetable scraps. What are the volumes of greens and
browns Ms. Wolfram needs to put in the bin? Please state how you got your answer

Green Material:
Brown material:

Answers

Answer 1

Ms. Wolfram should ask her husband Stephen, who's an incredible mathematician and computer scientist who's given the world a great gift in the website Wolfram Alpha which can answer all your math questions and more.

Anyway the volume of the bin is length times width times height,

V = 4 × 18 × 9 = 648 cubic inches

So the volume of brown is 20 % of that

B = 20% of V = .2 × 648  = 129.6 cubic inches

The volume of green is 30%,

G = 30% of V = .3 × 648 = 194.4 cubic inches

Answer: Green 194.4 cubic inches, Brown 129.6 cubic inches

Harry likes to grow his own vegetables. He wants to harvest at least 129 squashes during the summer season. If he has already harvested 61 squashes and plans to pick 8 squashes every week, how many weeks will it take him to harvest at least 129 squashes?

Answers

Answer:

8.5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve, you can start by subtracting 61 from 129 because he has already picked 61.

129 - 61 = 68

then, just divide 68 by 8 to find how many weeks it will take him.

68/8 = 8.5

it will take Harry 8 and a half weeks to harvest at least 129 squashes.

Harry needs 9 weeks to harvest at least 129 squashes.

What are inequalities and their types?

Inequality is a relation that compares two numbers or other mathematical expressions in an unequal way.

The symbol a < b indicates that a is smaller than b.

When a > b is used, it indicates that a is bigger than b.

a is less than or equal to b when a notation like a ≤ b.

a is bigger or equal value of an is indicated by the notation a ≥ b.

Let, The number of weeks it will take Harry to harvest at least 129 squashes be 'w'.

Therefore, The inequality that represents the given situation is,

8w + 61 > 129.

8w > 68.

w > 68/8.

w > 8.5.

So, It will take him at least 9 weeks.

A. 0.003
B. 0.3
C. 0.0003
D. 0.03

Answers

Answer:

A. 0.003

Step-by-step explanation:

When using decimals to represent a percentage it goes as follows:

100% = 1

75% = 0.75

50% = 0.5

25% = 0.25

1% = 0.01

And in the case of this problem: 0.3% = 0.003

A. 0.003

To go from a percentage to a decimal, you would remove the percent sign and move the decimal two places to the left.

First let's expand the function h:

[tex]h = -16(t- 1/4)^2 + 49[/tex]

[tex]h = -16(t^2 - t/2 + 1/16) + 49[/tex]

[tex]h = -16t^2 + 8t - 1 + 49[/tex]

[tex]h = -16t^2 + 8t + 48[/tex]

To find when the marshmallow reaches the maximum height, we can use the formula to find the vertex of the quadratic function, and the x-coordinate of the vertex is when we have the maximum height:

[tex]x_{vertex} = -b/2a[/tex]

A jar contains 5 red, 4 blue, and 3 yellow marbles. What is the probability of pulling a red marble, then pulling a blue marble, without

replacement? Calculate to the nearest tenth.

O 15.2 %

O 13.9%

14%

O 17.1%

Answers

Answer:

15.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of marbles in the jar is:

5 + 4 + 3 = 12 marbles

The jar contains 5 red, 4 blue, and 3 yellow marbles.

The probability of pulling a red marble is 5/12

There are now 11 marbles in the jar.

The probability of pulling a blue marble is 4/11

Therefore, the probability of pulling a red marble, then, pulling a blue marble, without  replacement is:

5/12 * 4/11 = 5/33

Converting to percentage:

5/33 * 100 = 15.2%

Alaine has 1 gallon of paint. She is going to pour it into
paint tray that measures 10 inches wide, 12 inches long, and 5 cm deep.
(1 gallon = 231 in?, 1 inch = 2.54 cm)
Which of the following scenarios will happen?
The paint will not fill the tray by 369 cm
The paint will not fill the tray by 5.22 in
The paint will fill the tray exactly
The paint will overfill the tray by 5.22 in?

Answers

Answer:

First, solve for the volume of the tray by the equation V = L x W x H. Convert first all the dimensions to inches. The operation gives an answer of volume equal to 236.22 in³. Converting the amount of paint available to in³. This gives an answer of 231 in³. Hence, the answer is letter B.

A chemist is adding pure (100%) acid to a 12 liter solution that is 15% acid in order to increase it to 49% acid. How much pure acid must she add?

How many ounces of 35% ethanol must be added to a 23 ounce mixture that contains 26% ethanol in order to obtain a mixture of 30.86% ethanol?

How many liters of 30% acid must be added to 10 liters of 53.66% acid in order to obtain a mixture that is 43% acid?

Answers

Answer:

1) 8 liters of pure acid

2) 27 liters of 35% ethanol

3) 8.2 liters of 30% acid

Step-by-step explanation:

The inicial amount of acid is 15% of 12 L, and the inicial volume is 12L.

Adding 'x' L of 100% acid, we have the amount of acid equal to 12 * 0.15 + x * 1, and the volume of 12 + x. The concentration is the amount of acid over the volume, so we have that:

(12*0.15 + x) / (12 + x) = 49/100

(1.8 + x)*100 = (12 + x) * 49

180 + 100x = 588 + 49x

51x = 408

x = 8 liters of pure acid

Similar to the solution above, for the second question we have:

(23*0.26 + 0.35*x) / (23 + x) = 30.86/100

(5.98 + 0.35*x)*100 = (23 + x) * 30.86

598 + 35x = 709.78 + 30.86x

4.14x = 111.78

x = 27 liters of 35% ethanol

For the third question, we have:

(10*0.5366 + 0.3*x) / (10 + x) = 43/100

(5.366 + 0.3x)*100 = (10 + x)*43

536.6 + 30x = 430 + 43x

13x = 106.6

x = 8.2 liters of 30% acid

B. There were 2,996 girls surveyed, and about 45% of them play video games.
C. There were 5,447 students surveyed, and about 54% of them do not play video games.
D. There were 2,493 students surveyed, and about 34% of them are girls who do not play video games.

Answers

Answer:

Correct option is:

B. There were 2,996 girls surveyed, and about 45% of them play video games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us calculate the percentage step by step as per the options.

We are given the following:

1. Boys who do play video games = 1593

2. Boys who do not play video games = 858

3. Total boys = 2451

4. Girls who do play video games = 1361

5. Boys who do not play video games = 1635

6. Total boys = 2996

7. Total number of candidates = Total boys + Total girls = 5447

8. Total number of students, who play video games = 2954

9. Total number of students, who do not play video games = 2493

Percentage of boys who play video games:

[tex]\dfrac{1593}{2451} \times 100 = 64.99\%[/tex]

So, option A is not correct.

Percentage of girls who play video games:

[tex]\dfrac{1361}{2996} \times 100 = 45.43\%[/tex]

The percentage is near about 45%, so option B is correct.

Percentage of Total number of students, who do not play video games:

[tex]\dfrac{2493}{5447} \times 100 = 45.77\%[/tex]

So, option C is not correct.

Hence, correct answer is option B.
