if you take one 10 minute shower a day, how many gallons of water are used

Answers

Answer 1
Final answer:

If you take a 10-minute shower each day, you would use approximately 25 gallons of water.

Explanation:

The average person in the U.S. uses approximately 100 gallons of water per day, which includes daily activities such as cooking, washing dishes and clothes, flushing the toilet, and bathing. If you take a 10-minute shower each day, you would use a certain amount of water.



To calculate the amount of water used during a 10-minute shower, you would need to know the flow rate of your showerhead. On average, a showerhead has a flow rate of 2.5 gallons per minute. So, multiplying the flow rate by the duration of the shower gives us:



2.5 gallons/minute * 10 minutes = 25 gallons



Therefore, if you take one 10-minute shower a day, you would use approximately 25 gallons of water.

How is the following decimal number read?

28.9


A. Twenty and eight-nine tenths

B. Twenty-eight and nine hundredths

C. Twenty-eight and nine tenths

D. Twenty-eight nine

Answers

Answer:
C) twenty-eight and nine tenths

Explanation:
We have two parts here, the whole number and the decimal part.

1- for the whole number, it is read normally as counting numbers. Therefore, 28 is read as twenty-eight
2- for the decimal part, it is read based on the place-value of the number. We know that the first number after the decimal point is in the tenth position. This means that 0.9 is read as nine tenths

Combining the two, we would conclude that 28.9 is read as twenty-eight and nine tenths

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

C. Twenty-eight and nine tenths.

Step-by-step explanation:  

We have been given a decimal number [tex]28.9[/tex]. We are asked to choose the correct option that represents how to read our given decimal number.

Upon looking at our given decimal number we can see that it has one digit at tenth place that is 9, which represents that our number has 9 tenths.  

The two digits before decimal are 2 (tens place) and 8 (ones place). These digits make 28.

Therefore, the given decimal number could be read as twenty-eight and nine tenths and option C is the correct choice.

Problem Nell's mom makes chocolate milk with 30mL of chocolate syrup for every 2 ounces of milk. Nell's dad adds 65mL of chocolate syrup for every 5 ounces of milk. Whose chocolate milk is more chocolatey?

a- Nell's Mom
b-Nell's Dad
c- They're both equally chocolately

12 POINTSS

Answers

Nell's mom: 30 mL for 2 ounces = 15 mL for 1 ounce

Nell's dad: 65 mL for 5 ounces = 13 mL for 1 ounce

15 > 13
Therefore, Nell's mom's chocolate milk is more chocolately.

Answer:

(A) Nell's mom

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Nell's mom makes chocolate milk with 30mL of chocolate syrup for every 2 ounces of milk.

⇒For 1 ounce of milk, she will make chocolate milk=[tex]\frac{30}{2}=15mL[/tex]

Also, it is given that Nell's dad adds 65mL of chocolate syrup for every 5 ounces of milk.

⇒For 1 ounce of milk, he will make chocolate milk=[tex]\frac{65}{5}=13mL[/tex]

Since, Nell's mom made 15mL of chocolate milk and his dad made 13mL of chocolate milk, thus Nell's mom made chocolate milk more chocolatey.

Hence, option A is correct.

Answers

-(10)∧-1= -(0.1)=-0.1

Answer:

A


Step-by-step explanation:

We can change the sign of an exponent if we change sides. This means sign of exponent changes when we move the number (along with base) from numerator to denominator or from denominator to numerator.


So 10 to the power -1 will change to 10 to the power 1 if we take the whole thing to the denominator (steps shown below):

[tex]-(10)^-1\\=-\frac{1}{10^1}\\=-\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

At a local fitness center, members pay an $8 membership fee and $3 for each aerobics class . Nonmembers pay $4 for each Aerobics class. For what number of aerobics classes will the cost for members & nonmembers be the same?

Answers

This problem is an example of solving equations with variables on both sides. To solve, we must first set up an equation for both members and nonmembers. 

Since members pay $3 for each aerobics class, we can represent this part of the equation as 3c. Members also pay a one time $8 membership fee, so we just add the 8 to the 3c: 

3c + 8

Since nonmembers pay $4 for each aerobics class, we can represent this part of the equation as 4c. They do not have to pay a one time membership fee, so our equation will just be: 

4c

To determine when the cost (c) of the aerobics class will be the same for both members and nonmembers, we set the two equations equal to each other: 

3c + 8 = 4c

Then, we solve for c. First, the variables must be on the same side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 3c from both sides of the equation: 

8 = 1c. 

Last, we divide both sides by 1. So c = 8. 

This means that the cost of classes will be the same for members and nonmembers at 8 classes. If we want to check our answer, we can plug 8 back into each equation: 

3c + 8 
= 3 ( 8 ) + 8
= 24 + 8
= 32

4c
= 4 ( 8 )
= 32

4 spoons and 3 forks cost $15 4 spoons and 1 fork cost $13 how many do the forks cost?

Answers

Let's say that s=spoons and f=forks. 

According to this, we can say that:

{4s+3f=15
{4s+f=13

This is a system. 

We can then use elimination to solve and isolate the variable:
(4s-3f=15)
- (4s+f=13)

We can then subtract and conclude that:
-4f=2
-f=1/2

Rhonda is playing a board game. The players take turns rolling a pair of number cubes. On her next turn Rhonda must roll a 5 to win the game, but if she rolls a double she gets an extra turn.
a. Explain why the events Rolling a 5 and Rolling Doubles are mutually exclusive.

b. If the probability of rolling a 5 is 1/9 and the probability of rolling doubles is 1/6, what is the probability that Rhonda rolls either a 5 or doubles on her next turn. Express your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

a) We presume "roll a 5" means rolling the dice so they come up with a total of 5 spots on top. 5 is not an even number, so when 5 is showing, the numbers on the two dice must be different, hence cannot be doubles.

b) Since these events are mutually exclusive, we can simply add their probabilities: (1/9) +(1/6) = 2/18 +3/18 = 5/18.

To answer all these questions you will use the formula A= bh. In words this means to find the area you multiply the base times the height. For each of these examples, you are given the area and you have to find the missing dimension. Each of these will be set up as four separate equations that need solved. Here they are 0.225=0.6h, 4.86=1.8b, 63=12b, and 2.5=5h. To solve all four of these and show evidence, you were divided the area by the dimension that you know. 0.225÷0.6, 4.86÷1.8, 63÷12, and 2.5÷5. With any multiplication equation if you know the total, you have to divide to find the missing part. The answers for each of these in order that they are presented our 3.75 miles, 2.7 yards, 5.25 m, and 0.5 km. None of the answers are square units because they are only giving a one dimensional measurement.

To find out how many times more massive than the Sun a black hole with a mass of 7.36 x 10³⁶ kg is, divide its mass by the mass of the Sun which is approximately 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg. The answer is 3.7 x 10⁶ times more massive than the Sun.

Explanation:

Scientists believe that there is an extremely massive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. To find out how many times more massive than the Sun a black hole with a mass of 7.36 x 10³⁶ kg is, you can divide its mass by the mass of the Sun. So, 7.36 x 10³⁶ kg / 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg = 3.7 x 10⁶ times more massive than the Sun.

Julio is in Colorado exploring part of the Denver Zoo as shown he starts at the felines exhibit and travels 3 unit to the right and 5 units up at which exhibit is Julio located at the felines exhibit is located at (3,1) what are the coordinates of Julio's new location

Answers

Starting with his original coordinates (3, 1), going 3 units right gives us (3+3, 1) = (6, 1).  Going 5 units up then gives us (6, 1+5) = (6, 6) for his new location.
Final answer:

To find Julio's new location at the Denver Zoo, we add his horizontal and vertical movements to his starting coordinates. After moving 3 units to the right and 5 units up from the felines exhibit at (3,1), Julio's new location is at coordinates (6,6).

Explanation:

The student is asking about a basic coordinate geometry problem. Julio is at the felines exhibit at coordinates (3,1). To find Julio's new location after traveling 3 units to the right and 5 units up, we add the horizontal and vertical movements to his starting coordinates.

The movement to the right corresponds to an increase in the x-coordinate, while the movement up corresponds to an increase in the y-coordinate. Starting from the point (3,1), moving 3 units to the right means the x-coordinate changes from 3 to 3 + 3 = 6. Moving 5 units up means the y-coordinate changes from 1 to 1 + 5 = 6. Thus, Julio's new coordinates are (6,6).
