A special piece of equipment is used at a construction site to dig holes. A hole is dug to a depth of 3.25 feet when the equipment hits rock. The progress slows to 5/8 feet per hour of digging. The depth of the hole must be at least 11 1/2 feet by the end of the day to stay on schedule. What is the minimum amount of time the equipment must continue at its present rate to complete the hole on schedule?
Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the statement.
The equipment requires at least 13 or 23 hours and 2/6/12/36 minutes to complete the hole on schedule.
Answer:
13 hours and 12 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
You put 3.25 as a fraction which is 3 1/4. then I took 3 1/4 and misused it by 11 1/2. 23/2 - 13/4 = 8 1/4 then we took the 5/8 and divided it by 33/4 (3 1/4) I got 13 1/5. 13 1/5 is 13 hours and 12 minutes.
Minimum amount of time taken to complete the hole is 13 hours and 12 minutes.
What is proportion?In mathematics, proportion is an equation where two ratios are taken to be equal to each other. Suppose if a:b = c:d, then [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{c}{d}[/tex].
In the question, it is given that, a hole is already dug to a depth of 3.25 feet = 3 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] feet.
Also, the depth of hole at the end of the day must be atleast 11 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] feet.
Remaining depth of the hole needed to dug = 11 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] - 3 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{23}{2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{33}{4}[/tex] feet
Rate of digging is [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] feet per hour.
We have to find how much time will be taken for [tex]\frac{33}{4}[/tex] feet.
In proportional form, it can be written as [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] : 1 = [tex]\frac{33}{4}[/tex] : x, where x is the time taken to complete [tex]\frac{33}{4}[/tex] feet.
⇒ [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] / 1 = [tex]\frac{33}{4}[/tex] / x
Cross multiplying, we get
[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] × x = [tex]\frac{33}{4}[/tex] × 1
⇒ x = [tex]\frac{33}{4}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{8}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{66}{5}[/tex] = 13 [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Hence the minimum amount of time the equipment must continue at the present rate to complete the hole on schedule is 13 hours and 12 minutes.

What is 125 ÷ (2×7) = ???
Answer:
8.93
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the answer is 8 and 13/14, or 8.93
Step-by-step explanation:
because of PEMDAS, we solve the numbers in the parenthesis first.
2 x 7 = 14.
next, we divide 125 by 14. 125 / 14 = 8 and 13/14
in decimal form, that is 8.93 (rounded up)

Write an equation representing the relationship of 10:20 shown in the graph
Answer:
[tex]20=2(10)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
10:20 is a good point that passes a line to another.
This graph is a linear graph.
The linear equation is
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
[tex]y[/tex] = 20 (the y coordinate in the graph)
[tex]m[/tex] = slope
[tex]x[/tex] = 10 (the x coordinate in the graph)
[tex]b[/tex] = y-intercept
Finding slope
To find the equation, we'll need to plug in the values in the formula. To find slope using two points, use the formula, then plug in the values:
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
(10, 20) and (20, 40)
[tex]=\frac{40-20}{20-10}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{20}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\bold{m= 2}[/tex]
Finding the y-intercept
You have to find the slope first before finding the y-intercept. So, plugin one of the two points we used to find the slope into the formula and solve for [tex]b[/tex]
(10, 20)
[tex]20=2(10)+b[/tex]
[tex]20=20+b[/tex]
[tex]20-20=20-20+b[/tex]
[tex]\bold{b=0}[/tex]
The y-intercept is zero, and when it is, you do not add it since zero is nothing.
The equation is [tex]20=2(10)[/tex]

Rafi had a board that was 15 1/2 feet long. He cut three pieces off the board that are each 3 7/8 feet long. How much of the board is left?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question, first we need to figure out how much of the board Rafi cut off.
To do this, we need to multiply the length of each piece by the number of pieces he cut off.
3 7/8 = 3.875
3.875 * 3 = 11.625
Now, because we knew Rafi cut off 11.625 feet off of the board, we just need to subtract this length from the length of the entire board to find the remaining length.
15 1/2 = 15.5
15.5 - 11.625 = 3.875
There is 3.875 feet or 3 7/8 of the board left.
