A mermaid has a terrarium that measures 42 inches × 10 inches × 9 inches. She also has a box that measures 3 inches × 3 inches × 3 inches. Every minute, the mermaid fills the box with sand from her backyard and then pours the sand into the terrarium. How many minutes does it take the mermaid to fill three-quarters of the terrarium with sand?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  105 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the terrarium is ...

  V = LWH

  V = (42 in)(10 in)(9 in) = 3780 in³

The volume of a box is ...

  V = (3 in)(3 in)(3 in) = 27 in³

Then the number of boxes it takes to fill the terrarium is ...

  (3780 in³)/(27 in³/box) = 140 boxes

The mermaid wants to fill it 3/4 full, so only needs 3/4 this number of boxes. That is 105 boxes. At the rate of 1 per minute, ...

  it will take 105 minutes to fill 3/4 of the terrarium

What are the first 3 terms in. t(n)=-2n+7

Answers

Answer:

The first 3 terms of the sequence [tex]t(n)=-2n+7[/tex] are:

[tex]5, 3, 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

[tex]t(n)=-2n+7[/tex]

Here [tex]n[/tex] represents any term number in the sequence

Determining the first term

substitute n = 1 in the sequence to determine the first term

[tex]t(n)=-2n+7[/tex]

[tex]t(1)=-2(1)+7[/tex]

[tex]t(1)=-2+7[/tex]

[tex]t(1) = 5[/tex]

Determining the 2nd term

substitute n = 2 in the sequence to determine the 2nd term

[tex]t(n)=-2n+7[/tex]

[tex]t(2) = -2(2) + 7[/tex]

[tex]t(2) = -4 + 7[/tex]

[tex]t(2) = 3[/tex]

Determining the 3rd term

substitute n = 3 in the sequence to determine the 3rd term

[tex]t(n)=-2n+7[/tex]

[tex]t(3) = -2(3) + 7[/tex]

[tex]t(3) = -6 + 7[/tex]

[tex]t(3) = 1[/tex]

Therefore, the first 3 terms of the sequence [tex]t(n)=-2n+7[/tex] are:

[tex]5, 3, 1[/tex]

Benjamin bought a 3-pound bag of flour for $6.95. What is the unit price per ounce of flour? (1 pound = 16 ounces)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 16 oz in 1 lb, to find the amount in 3 lbs, you would just multiply it by 3

16 · 3 = 48

to find the price you divide the total price by number of oz.

6.95 ÷ 48 ≈ 0.1448

since money is measured in hundreths, you would round up (because thats how money works) so it would be roughly 15 cents. unless your teacher wants you to round down to 14 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+6)(x-2)

=> (x*x) + (x*-2) + (6*x) + (6*-2)

=> (x²) + (-2x) + (6x) + (-12)

=> x² - 2x + 6x - 12

=> x² + 4x - 12

So, once you simplify this equation the answer you should get is, x² + 4x - 12.
