A tractor can plant a field at a rate of 2.5 acres per 5 minutes. If a mammoth farm measuring 4 square miles needs planting, how long will it take in hours to plant the field? There are 640 acres in a square mile. Determine your answer to the nearest hour. If the tractor can run 8 hours a day, what is the minimum number of days it will take to plant the farm?

Answers

Answer 1

The time taken by the tractor to plant the field with an area of 4 square miles is nearly 85 hours.

The minimum number of days taken by the tractor when working 8 hours a day is 11 days.

What is the area?

The area is the total surface occupied within the boundary of the figure.

How to solve the question?

In the question, we are given that a tractor can plant a field at a rate of 2.5 acres per 5 minutes.

We are asked the time taken by the tractor to plant a field having an area of 4 square miles.

First, we convert the area of the field from sq. miles to acres using the conversion rate, 1 square mile = 640 acres,

Thus, the area of the field = 4 sq. miles = 4*640 acres = 2560 acres.

Time taken to plant 2.5 acres is given to be 5 minutes.

Thus, the time taken to plan 1 acre = 5/2.5 = 2 minutes.

Thus, the time taken to plant the field having an area of 2560 acres = 2560*2 minutes = 5120 minutes = 85.33 hours =  85 hours and 20 minutes.

Thus, the time taken by the tractor to plant the field with an area of 4 square miles is nearly 85 hours.

The time for which the tractor can run daily is 8 hours.

Thus, the number of days taken by the tractor to plant the field = 85.33/8 = 10.66625, or 11 days.

Thus, the minimum number of days taken by the tractor when working 8 hours a day is 11 days.

The Sydney Harbour Bridge is approximately 1200 metres long. A model of the bridge is built with a scale of 1:6000. What is the length of the model?

Pick one:

5cm

20cm

200cm

720cm

--------------------

scale = 1:6000

so

1200 : 6000 =  0.2m

0.2m = 20 cm

Answer:

20cm

Step-by-step explanation:

«A scale of 1:6000» means the model is smaller than the bridge by a factor of 6000. We can also make up a proportion [tex]\dfrac{1}{6000}=\dfrac{x}{1200}[/tex], where the left side is the scale, x is the model length, 1200 is the bridge length (in meters). So, finding x or just dividing 1200 by 6000, we get 0.2 meters. Provided 1 m = 100 cm, 0.2 m is 0.2 × 100 = 20 cm.

Which of the following represents 3 times the sum of 3
and 8?

Answers

Answer:

The expression would be (x + 3)(x - 8) and if we multiplied those together we would get x^2 - 5x - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x x^2 + 6x + 1 = 0

Answers

Answer:

x = -.1715 ≈ - .172    or x = -5.83

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 6x + 1 = 0

x² + 6x = -1

Complete the square   Add to both sides (1/2 of the x-term, then square it.)

x² + 6x + 9  = -1 + 9

(x + 3)(x + 3) = 8

(x + 3)² = 8

[tex]\sqrt{(x + 3)^{2}[/tex]  = [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex]

 x + 3 = ±  [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex]

  x = -3 ± [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex]

   x = -3 + [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex]   or x = -3 - [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Divide 16 by 25

-> [tex]\frac{16}{25}[/tex] -> [tex]0.64[/tex]

Step 2: Multiply quotient by 100.

[tex]0.64 * 100[/tex] [tex]6.4 * 10[/tex] [tex]64[/tex] 64%

Therefore, 16/25 as a percentage is 64%.

Answer:

Well you can make a proportion

Percentage means ”Out of a hundred”

So you can make a proportion with any fraction Equal to x/100 since

X is the unknown perctange.

in this case it’s 16/25

16/25 = x/100

So cross multiply To solve for X

1600= 25x

x= 64

So 64 Percent

In this case you can use benchmarks. If you do it more or long enough, you’d memorize them.

In this case 25 is a bench mark of 1/4 or 25. 25 goes into 100 4 times so you can multiply 16 by 4 to get your percentage since if you do multiply 4, you have to do it to both the numerator and the Denominator.

so 16/25

16*4= 64

25*4=100

64/100 or 64 percent.
