During a catered lunch, an average of 4 cups of tea are poured per minute. The lunch will last 2 hours. How many gallons of tea should the caterer bring if there are 16 cups in one gallon?gallons

Answers

we know that

An average of $4$ cups of tea are poured per minute

Step 1

Find the number of cups that are poured in two hours by proportion

Remember that

$2\ hours=120\ minutes$

$(4)/(1) (cups)/(minute) =(x)/(120)(cups)/(minutes) \n \nx=120*4 \n \nx=480\ cups$

Step 2

Convert cups to gallons by proportion

Remember that

$16\ cups=1\ gallon$

$(1)/(16) (gallon)/(cups) =(x)/(480) (gallons)/(cups) \n \nx=480/16 \n \nx=30\ gallons$

therefore

the answer is

$30\ gallons$

The answer is 30.
There are 16 cups in a gallon. And 120 minutes in 2 hours. so multiple
16*120 which is 480. Then divide 480/120 and get 30 as your answer

What is the value of x in this proportion?

Answers

Answer:

x=6

Solution,

$(4)/(x) = (6)/(9 ) \n or \: 6 * x = 4 * 9(cross \: multiplication) \n or \: 6x = 36 \n or \: x = (36)/(6) \n x = 6$

hopethishelps..

Goodluck on your assignment...

Answer:

X = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross Multiplication

We can go about this 1 of 2 ways we can either cross multiply or divide across the numerators and denominators. Let's cross multiply. We would 4*9 = 6x. Which would simplify down to 36 = 6x. We would then divide the 6 on each sides of the equation to get 6 = X.

Dividing Across

The other way we can go about it is by seeing what 4 had to be multiplied by to get to 6. We do this by dividing 6 by for which gets us 3/2 or 1.5. Now that we know this we would then divide 9 by 3/2 or 1.5 to get the answer of 6.

you throw a ball upward. its height h in feet after t seconds can be modeled by the function h=-16t^2+30t+6.after how many seconds will it hit the ground

Answers

When the ball hit the ground, the height will be equal to "0".
h=0
Then:

-16t²+30t+6=0

we have to solve this square equation:

t=[-30⁺₋√(900+384)] / (-32)
t=(-30⁺₋√1284)/(-32)
we have two solutions:
t₁=(-30-√1284)/(-32)=2.06
t₂=(-30+√1284)/(-32)=-0.18 This solution is not valid.

Answer: 2.06 seconds.

How do I solve?Hereford College has space for 450 students in the freshman class. The college estimates that 60% of the students who are admitted will actually attend college. How many students should be admitted?
* I know you have to set it up like a proportion i just dont know how to solve.

Answers

450 studnets is the number that they want or can hold.
that is only 60 percent of people that they can actually accept because they believe that 40% aren't actually going to attend.
what you would do is divide 450 by 60 you get 7.5
multiply that by 4 and you get 30 add a zero because the numbers are all in the hundreds and you get 300 or the 40% that aren't going to attend the classes
so they will except the 100% or 750 students
