A washing machine is filling up with water at a constant rate. The rate is 3/4 of a gallon in 1/5 of a minute. Don calculated the unit rate to be 3/20 of a gallon per minute. what did he do wrong?​

Answer: you have to see how many gallons fill the container per minute, so take 3/4 and divide it by 1/5, which gives 15/4. So he multiplied the two numbers instead of dividing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

[tex]\frac{15}{4}[/tex] gallon per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Quantity of gallon = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] gallon

Time taken  = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] min

Unknown:

The solution is [tex]\frac{3}{20}[/tex] gallon per minute, what did he do wrong = ?

Solution:

To find the rate:

   Rate  = [tex]\frac{Quantity of gallon}{time }[/tex]

 Input the parameters and solve

  Rate  = [tex]\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{1}{5} }[/tex]   = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]  ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

                       Invert the [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]  to give 5

                  =  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] x 5

                  = [tex]\frac{15}{4}[/tex] gallon per minute

The student failed to invert the [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] before multiplying with  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Which of the following lines is perpendicular to the equation given below?

y = -2x + 8


2x + y = 4
2x + y = 4

x - 2y = 6
x - 2y = 6

2x - y = 1
2x - y = 1

x + 2y = 8

Are the two triangles congruent? Why or why not?

Why is the value of a substance’s specific gravity always the same numerically as its density?
HELP ME PLEASE!!!
Because it is always the substance’s density divided by the density of water which is 1 g/cm 3
Because it is always the substance’s density multiplied by the density of water which is 1 g/cm 3
Because specific gravity is the inverse of density
Because these represent the same measurement

find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with side 8 ​

PLZ HELP
A student writes an incorrect step while checking if the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles of triangle ABC below is equal to the measure of the exterior angle.

Step 1: m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle)
Step 2: m∠p − m∠o = 90 degrees (alternate interior angles)
Step 3: Therefore, m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = m∠o + m∠p
Step 4: So, m∠m + m∠n = m∠p

In which step did the student first make a mistake and how can it be corrected? (4 points)

a
Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (corresponding angles)

b
Step 1; it should be m∠m + m∠n + m∠o = 90 degrees (adjacent angles)

c
Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (alternate exterior angles)

d
Step 2; it should be m∠o + m∠p = 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

I think its c

Candice paid her parents $45 for rent and divided the rest of her paycheck evenly into a checking account,a savings account,and a retirement fund.She put $192 in her savings account
A.Write an equation to represent the situation



B.How much was Candice paid

Step 1: m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = 180 degrees (sum of angles of a triangle) Step 2: m∠w − m∠z = 90 degrees (corresponding angles) Step 3: Therefore, m∠x + m∠y + m∠z = m∠w + m∠z Step 4: So, m∠x + m∠y = m∠w
