Hello!  I know somebody might have already answered this question, but I figured I could add more to it. In order to help you know whenever a question shows up like this again, I'll make an ordered situation for you.

Let's go ahead and make the situation!

The Situation:  Let's call the person trying to figure this problem out by Alison.  Alison turns on the water and allows it to run in the tub for about 9 minutes. She then turns the water off while she runs to answer the front door. She soon comes back and allows water to run into the tub for a couple more minutes before she takes a short bath. After the bath, Alison allows the water to completely drain from the tub.  That's how the problem would've went, but your question.

When you're asking the question you're also trying to figure out how it would've gone.  So, since you tried following the paragraph I made for the picture/problem I can show how'd it help you comprehend it better.  After Alison turns on the water, turns it back off then comes back to run the water AGAIN.. She finally drains it from the tub, which is what the picture exactly shows.  BUT when did she turn it off?!!!

Look at the problem, at the point where the Water level(in) starts decreasing.  We know that we end with the Water level(in) at 0, but how'd it get there?  The point at 12 in time is when it starts decreasing! But, from there it continues until it's at 15(min)

THE FINAL ANSWER: At 12(min) it decreases until it hits 15(min) which is when the tub is empty.  So, if you do common math 15(min) - 12(min) is 3(min)  So, it took 3(min) to empty the tub when it was the most full.

The fractions that are less than (1/2) can be, 1/4, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8, and so on.

A fraction is written in the form of p/q, where q ≠ 0.

Fractions are of two types they are proper fractions in which the numerator is smaller than the denominator and improper fractions where the numerator is greater than the denominator.

Given, A fraction (1/2).

Now, The fractions that are less than (1/2) can be obtained by multiplying such fractions which are less than 1.

For, Example, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, etc.

Therefore, One such fraction that is less than (1/2) is (1/2)×(1/4),

= 1/8.

Mrs. Gee should arrange the 24 carpet squares in a rectangle of 6 by 4 squares to achieve the smallest perimeter of 20 units.

Arranging Carpet Squares with the Smallest Perimeter

To minimize the perimeter when arranging 24 carpet squares, Mrs. Gee should create a shape that is as close to a square as possible. Since 24 is not a perfect square, we look for dimensions that are factors of 24 that are closest to each other, which are 6 and 4. This would create a rectangle that is 6 squares long and 4 squares wide. Arranging the carpet squares in this manner results in a perimeter of:

(6 + 4) x 2 = 20 units

This is the smallest possible perimeter for 24 squares with whole number side lengths.

The number with digits 2, 5, and 4 rounds to 200 when rounded to the nearest hundredh is 245.

We round off numbers to make them easier to remember and it also keeps their value approximately to the place it has been rounded off.

To round off any number to any place we'll look for the digit next to that place and if it is equal to or greater than 5 we'll add one to the previous digit and make all the digits after it zeroes and if the digit is less than 5 we do not add one to the preceding digit and simply make all the digit after it to zeroes.

Given, A number has the digits 2, 5, and 4. To the nearest 100, the number rounds to 200.

Now if it rounds to 200 the first digit must be 2 so the number is either

254 Or 245.

254 rounds to 300 and 245 rounds to 200.

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

The place value of 3 in 6.832 is hundredth since 3 is located at the second position after the decimal point. Hundredth means 1/100

Similarly, The place value of 3 in 112.3 is a tenth since 3 is located at the first position in the value after the decimal from the back. Tenth means 1/10.

Since the value of 3 in 6.832 is 1/100, which is 1/10 of the place value of 3 in 112.3 i.e 1/10 of 1/10

The answer is therefore 1/10 since 1/10 of 1/10 gives 1/100

The zoo orders 8 pounds of bananas each day, calculated by dividing the weekly amount (56 pounds) by the number of days in a week (7).

The question specifies that the zoo kitchen orders 56 pounds of bananas each week. To find out how many pounds of bananas are ordered daily, we need to divide this weekly quantity by the number of days in a week. Since there are seven days in a week, 56 pounds of bananas divided by 7 equals 8 pounds. So, the zoo kitchen orders 8 pounds of bananas each day.

To calculate the total of three employees' raises, each employee's current salary is multiplied by their respective raise percentage and then added together, resulting in the closest total of $4,790.

The question involves calculating the total amount of the raises given to three employees. We need to apply the given percentage raise to each employee's salary and then sum these amounts to find the answer.

Calculate Jane's raise: $41,100 * 0.04 = $1,644.

Calculate John's raise: $43,300 * 0.045 = $1,948.5.

Calculate Jack's raise: $39,900* 0.03 = $1,197.

Add the raises together to find the total: $1,644 + $1,948.5 + $1,197 = $4,789.5.

The closest amount to the total of all three raises is $4,790.

In 1 minute the student reads 2/5 divide by 45

[tex]\frac{\frac{2}{5}}{45} = \frac{2}{225}[/tex]

In 1 minute the student reads  [tex]\frac{2}{225}[/tex]

In 70 minutes the student reads [tex]70* \frac{2}{225}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{140}{225}[/tex]

Final answer:

The long division for 6,250 ÷ 5 results in 1,250. By dividing each place value by 5 methodically, you arrive at the total step by step.

Explanation:

Performing Long Division

To perform the long division for 6,250 ÷ 5, you divide 6,250 by 5. Here’s the step-by-step process:

First, you look at the thousands place. 6,000 divided by 5 gives you 1,200. So you write 1,200 above the division bar.

Next, since you accounted for 5,000 of the 6,250, you have 1,250 left. Then divide 1,000 by 5 to get 200, and write this under the 1,200.

Now you have accounted for 6,000 and only 250 remain. You divide 250 by 5 to get 50 and write this under the 200.

Add the totals above the division bar: 1,200 + 200 + 50 to get 1,250.

The answer to 6,250 ÷ 5 is 1,250. This is how you use long division to solve this problem.

Jon was a better shooter

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare the three players foul shot ratio, convert all of them in decimals as follows:

Jon: 18/19 = 0.947

Jim: 5/8 = 0.625

Joe ratio was: 0.94

The best shooter is Jon because his ratio is the greatest one.

The constant term in the function y=10x+25, representing the number of trading cards Sean has, is 25. This term is best interpreted as the number of cards Sean had when he started his collection, which corresponds to Option A.

The function y=10x+25 represents the number of trading cards Sean has over time, where y is the number of cards and x is the time in months since he began collecting. The constant term in this linear equation (the number 25) is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x is zero. This term represents the number of cards that he had when he started his collection. It shows us that before any months have passed (when x=0), Sean already had 25 cards. Therefore, the best interpretation of the constant term in this function is Option A: the number of cards that he had when he started his collection.

The solution to the system  2x + 7y = 1 and 2x - 4y = 12 is (- 1, 4).

In the elimination method of solving two or more than two equations, we make one variable of both equations the same by multiplying or dividing and then we add or subtract them.

Given, 2x + 7y = 1 and 2x - 4y = 12.

If we subtract (2x + 7y = 1) - (2x - 4y = 12) we'll have,

7y + 4y = 1 - 12.

11y = - 11.

y = - 1.

Now putting the value of y in any one of these equations we get,

2x + 7(-1) = 1.

2x - 7 = 1.

2x = 8.

x = 4.
