During a thunderstorm, 4
inches of rain fell in 2 1/2
hours. What was the rate of rainfall in inches per hour?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 1.6 in per hour

Answer 2

Answer:

hourly rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

As others have noted, it is a simple mathematical division problem (4/2.5) and the average is 1.6 inches per hour.

However, if this is for sizing civil works such as culverts or plumbing storm water drainage systems to mitigate flooding, the highest rate per hour must be known and usually the highest ten minutes rainfall rate expressed as an hourly rate.

For example, if 4.0 inches fell over that 2.5 hours, nothing says that a rain band did not dump 3 inches in the first hour, (3 inches per hour cumulative) or 0.75 inches in a ten minute period (4.5 inches per hour rate), with the remainder of the storm tapering off to lesser rates. So the average is correct, but the peak hour is much more important for practical purposes.

Which expression can be used to find The amount of money for camp leader spends on b books

Answers

Answer:

Part A: A. 7.50 x b

Part B: $90

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: The cost of a book is $7.50, so the equation that is going to tell you the total cost of however many books purchased is equation A.

Part B: $90. If the cost of a book is $7.50 and the teacher purchases 12 books, you do $7.50 x 12= $90. You can check the equation by adding $7.50 12 times. You will get the same result.

The graph second representing the complex number 2(cos(2π/3)+i sin(2π/3)) on a coordinate plane option second is correct.

What is a complex number?

It is defined as the number which can be written as x+iy where x is the real number or real part of the complex number and y is the imaginary part of the complex number and i is the iota which is nothing but a square root of -1.

The complete question is:

Which graph represents 2(cos(2π/3)+i sin(2π/3))?

The graphs are in the picture, please refer to the picture.

We have a complex number;

= 2(cos(2π/3)+i sin(2π/3))

= 2(cos120 + i sin120)

= 2(-0.5 + i 0.866)

= -1 + i 1.732

The point is (-1, 1.732)

Thus, the graph second representing the complex number 2(cos(2π/3)+i sin(2π/3)) on a coordinate plane option second is correct.

3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-14y=28

solve

add -3 both sides

3x−14y+−3x=28+−3x

−14y=−3x+28

divide both sides by -14

y= 3 /14 x−2

y=mx+b

so 3/14 is the slope

A parabola can be drawn given a focus of (-4, -5) and a directrix of y=3. Write the equation of the parabola in any form.

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the parabola is (x + 4)² = -16(y + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of the equation of the parabola is (x - h)²  = 4p(y - k), where

The vertex of the parabola is (h, k)The focus is (h, k + p)The directrix is at y = k - p  

∵ The focus at (-4, -5)

h = -4

∴ k + p = -5 ⇒ (1)

∵ The directrix at y = 3

∴ k - p = 3 ⇒ (2)

→ Add equations (1) and (2) to find k

∴ 2k = -2

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find k

k = -1

→ Substitute it in equation (1) to find p

∵  -1 + p = -5

→ Add both sides by 1

∴ -1 + 1 + p = -5 + 1

p = -4

→ Substitute the values of h, k, and p in the formula above

∵ (x - -4)² = 4(-4)(y - -1)

∴ (x + 4)² = -16(y + 1)

The equation of the parabola is (x + 4)² = -16(y + 1)

−6x + 6y = 6 −6x + 3y = −12

Answers

Answer:

x = 0

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

−6x + 6y = 6 −6x + 3y = −12

-6x+6x+6y-3y = 6

3y = 6

y = 2

checking:

6-6x+3.2 = -12

6-6x+6 = -12

12-6x = 12

x = 0

checking 2:

since x = 0 we ignore it and its multipliers from the equation:

6y=6+3y = 12

6.2 = 12 (check)

6+3.2 = 12

6+6 = 12 (check)
