Engineers are digging a 3200-foot-long tunnel at a constant rate. After 5 months, the engineers still need to dig 1700 feet to finish the project. How much time does it take to complete the tunnel from start to finish?

Will the engineers have enough time if the project was started in December 2020 and the deadline to finish the project was in August 2021? Please explain your answer for yes or no.

Hint:
y=mx+b (slope-intercept form)
x=time
y=distance
b=3200
Start & Finish: ??
Total length=3200ft
Left over=1700ft after 5 months of digging

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A answer: 10 2/3 months

Part B answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

Using what we gathered from the word problem, and the hint, we know that y = distance, x = time, and b = 3200.

3200 is the total number of ft meant for the hole to be dug. If we've been digging for 5 months, and we have 1700 ft yet to be dug, then after 5 months we have dug (3200 - 1700 =) 1500 ft in 5 months.

-1500 ft/5 months = 300 ft/month

-Digging the final 1700 ft will take 5 2/3 months

^ Using this information, we know that the total number of months it takes to dig the entirety of the tunnel is 10 2/3

In the second part of the problem, we're asked to determine whether or not a deadline of August 2021 was enough time to complete the 10 2/3 month-long project if the digging began in December of 2020.

If said project commenced in December 2020, and the deadline was August 2021, then there would be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8... Roughly 8 1/2 months to complete the tunnel. 10 2/3 months is > (greater than) 8 1/2 months. So, no. That start-to-finish deadline would not be enough time.

Good luck!!

Answer:

1.) The height of the cone is 10 and the volume is 2355

2a.) Height 5= Volume 1177.5.

2b.) Height 30= Volume 7065

3.) (I'm not exactly sure because I haven't done this in a while.)

I guess 30= diameter

4.) 1 unit of height = 235.5 units of volume

Sorry if i messed up 3 or 4. I haven't calculated this stuff in a while.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) It says the height of the cone on the horizontal ray and volume of the cone of the vertical ray.

2.) Divide 10 by 2 to get 5 height - Divide 2355 by 2= 1177.5

2b.) Multiply 10 by 3= 30 height - Multiply 2355 by 3= 7065

3.) r= √3× (V ÷ h) subtitute: r= √3× (2355 ÷ 3.14× 10)

simplify: r= 14.99... Diameter = 2 radius so about 30

4.) Divide 2355 by 10 to get the unit ratio. 1 unit of height is 235.5 volume.

This triangle is a multiple of one of the triples listed here. What is the hypotenuse?

Answers

Answer:

50 units

Step-by-step explanation:

you use Pythagorean-theorem  which means A^2+B^2 =C^2

It does not matter the order of A and B because it is adding. But C is the hypotenuse.

If we plug in the # this is what it looks like...

14^2 +48^2=C^2

        or

48^2+14^2=C^2

14*14= 196

48*48=2,304

then you add

196+2,304=C^2

2,500= C^2

and you can use a calculator for this part you do 2,500

with the 2,500 you use the sign as in the picture and it gives you...

50

which means 50*50 = 2,500

50 units is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

9(2j+5j)

= 9(7j)

Okay so first you would want to mutiply 9 and 2 which gets you 18j the multiply 9 and 5 which gets you 45j then add like terms which in this case is 45j and 18j that will get you 63j and that’s your answer.

the mass of a monarch butterfly is 0.56 g what is the mass of 4 monarch butterflies?

Answers

You multiply .56x4 or add .56 4 times. The mass of all 4 monarch butterflies is 2.24

The solution is: The mass of all 4 monarch butterflies is 2.24

Here, we have,

the mass of a monarch butterfly is 0.56 g,  we nee to find  the mass of 4 monarch butterflies

if 1 butterfly is 0.56 grams,

then 4 must be 0.56 x 4.

                        =2.24

we multiply .56x4 = 2.24

or add .56,  4 times.

i.e. .56 + .56 + .56 + .56 = 2.24

The mass of all 4 monarch butterflies is 2.24

we have worked out the answer :

0.56 x 4 = 2.24g

Hence, The solution is: The mass of all 4 monarch butterflies is 2.24

A. does 24 ft = 2in ?

Answers

No, your answer should be,

[tex]\Huge\boxed{288}[/tex]

To convert feet into inches, you multiply the length value by 12. Your mistake is you got it mixed-up. 24ft doesn't equal 2in, but 24in equals 2ft, because instead of multiplying 12, you divide by 12.

24ft → 288in

24 × 12 = 288

24in → 2ft

24 ÷ 12 = 2

Hence, 24ft doesn't equal 2in.

24 doesn’t equal 2.
