Answer:
- 1.25 hours or 1 hour and 15 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Question</em>
- <em>Lisa lit a candle with a height of 8 inches. When lit, this candle loses 10% of its original height every hour. </em>
- <em>Please complete the following sentence by writing the number in the blank.
Until the candle has been burning for at least _______ hours, the height of Jennifer's candle will be more than 7 inches.</em>
<u>Candle looses 10% of 8 inches, it equals:</u>
- 8*0.1 = 0.8 inches an hour
<u>Let x be required time, then:</u>
- 8 - 0.8x > 7
- 0.8x < 8 - 7
- 0.8x < 1
- x < 1/0.8
- x < 1.25
- or 1 hour 15 minutes
Answer:
P = 10/171
P = 0.058
The probability that both fish selected are Catfish is 0.0058
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The tank contains;
Algae eaters = 8
Catfish = 5
Tilapia fish = 6
Total number of fish = 8+5+6= 19
To determine the probability that both fish selected are Catfish P;
P = 5/19 × 4/18
( The number of the total number of fishes, and Catfish reduce by one after each selection because it is selected without replacement)
P = 10/171
P = 0.058
One hundred and thirty five million, 7 hundred and ninety one thousand and three hundred and fifty seven point nine one
121'
48 plus 70=118
360-118=242
242/2=121
