Assume that when you take a​ bath, you fill a tub to the halfway point. The tub measures 5 feet by 3 feet by 2.8 feet. When you

take a​ shower, you use a shower head with a flow rate of 1.52 gallons per​ minute, and you typically spend 12 minutes in the shower. There are 7.5 gallons in one cubic foot.

The total water used for a bath is half the tub's full capacity. Volume of water used = (volume)/2 = (5×3×2.8)/2 = 42/2 = 21 cubic feet. For a shower, the total water used is calculated as: total water = rate × time = 1.52 × 12 = 18.24 gallons. To convert gallons to cubic feet, since 1 cubic foot equals 7.5 gallons: amount = 18.24/7.5 = 2.432 cubic feet. Therefore, the conclusion reached is that bathing consumes more water than showering.

If 65% of a number is 1,105, what is 82% of the number?
Inessa [12570]
To find the original number where 65% equals 1105:
0.65x = 1105
x = 1105 ÷ 0.65
x = 1700... hence, the original number is 1700.

Calculating 82% of 1700:
0.82 * 1700 = 1394 <== this is your answer.

Julie needs to cut 4 pieces of yarn, each with the same length, and a piece of yarn 7.75 inches long. Let x represent the length
tester [12383]

Answer:

y=4x+7.75; continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s first establish the equation. Julie requires one segment of yarn measuring 7.75 inches: that's already known.

y = 7.75

Now, for the four pieces of yarn, each will be of equal length x. If she wants them to measure 1 inch, she'd need 4 inches of yarn. Therefore, the calculation would be:

y = 7.75 + 4x

Now, is this graph discrete or continuous? Continuous indicates there's a smooth line without gaps, while discrete has interruptions or spaces. In this scenario, x is continuous, as Julie can cut the yarn to any size for the four pieces. She is not limited to whole numbers; each piece could be, for instance, 2.5 inches or 3.1415 inches.
