An aviation structural mechanic is cutting a piece of sheet metal to repair an aircraft fuselage. The initial piece of sheet metal is 451245 \frac{1}{2} inches long. The mechanic cuts off one piece that is 143414 \frac{3}{4} inches long and another piece that is 185818 \frac{5}{8} inches long. Assuming no material is lost to the saw cut, how many inches of the sheet metal remain? (Enter your answer as a decimal).

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 12.125

Cevap

The remaining piece of sheet metal is 12.125 inches long.
The remaining length is correctly found by determining the sum of the removed parts (1434+1858=333814 \frac{3}{4} + 18 \frac{5}{8} = 33 \frac{3}{8}) and subtracting it from the whole (4512−3338=121845 \frac{1}{2} - 33 \frac{3}{8} = 12 \frac{1}{8}), which equals 12.125 inches.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Find a common denominator for the fractional parts to easily add and subtract the lengths.
The least common denominator for 2, 4, and 8 is 8. The initial length is 454845 \frac{4}{8} inches. The first cut is 146814 \frac{6}{8} inches, and the second cut is 185818 \frac{5}{8} inches.
Fractions must have the same denominator before they can be added or subtracted.
2
Calculate the total length of the sheet metal that was cut off.
1468+1858=3211814 \frac{6}{8} + 18 \frac{5}{8} = 32 \frac{11}{8}, which simplifies to 333833 \frac{3}{8} inches.
Adding the cut pieces together gives the total amount of material removed.
3
Subtract the total cut length from the initial length to find the remaining amount.
4548−3338=121845 \frac{4}{8} - 33 \frac{3}{8} = 12 \frac{1}{8} inches.
Subtracting the removed material from the starting material leaves the remaining balance.
4
Convert the final mixed number to a decimal.
1218=12.12512 \frac{1}{8} = 12.125
The question requires a decimal format for the numeric entry.

An ion with a +3+3 positive charge has 1010 electrons and a mass number of 2727. How many neutrons are located inside the nucleus of this ion?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 14

Cevap

14 neutrons
For any atom or ion, the mass number equals the total count of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Because this ion has a +3+3 charge and 1010 electrons, it must contain 1313 protons (10+310 + 3). Subtracting 1313 protons from the mass number of 2727 gives exactly 1414 neutrons.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the atomic number (number of protons) using the ion's charge and electron count.
The atom has 1313 protons.
A positive charge (+3+3) indicates that the atom has lost 33 electrons relative to its proton count. Therefore, Protons=Electrons+Charge=10+3=13\text{Protons} = \text{Electrons} + \text{Charge} = 10 + 3 = 13.
2
Calculate the number of neutrons using the mass number and the proton count.
The nucleus contains 1414 neutrons.
Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons (A=Z+NA = Z + N). Thus, Neutrons=Mass Number−Protons=27−13=14\text{Neutrons} = \text{Mass Number} - \text{Protons} = 27 - 13 = 14.

A combat engineering squad fills 150150 sandbags in 4040 minutes. Operating at this exact constant rate, how many sandbags can the squad fill in 44 hours?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 900

Cevap

900
Because the production rate is constant, the number of sandbags filled is directly proportional to the time spent. Harmonizing the time units by converting 44 hours into 240240 minutes allows you to correctly scale up the initial ratio of 150150 sandbags per 4040 minutes.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the total working time from hours to minutes.
4 hours×60 minutes/hour=240 minutes4 \text{ hours} \times 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 240 \text{ minutes}
The given rate is in minutes (150150 sandbags per 4040 minutes), so the target time must also be in minutes to set up an accurate proportion.
2
Set up a direct proportion.
150 sandbags40 minutes=x sandbags240 minutes\frac{150 \text{ sandbags}}{40 \text{ minutes}} = \frac{x \text{ sandbags}}{240 \text{ minutes}}
Since the squad works at a constant rate, the ratio of sandbags filled to time spent must remain equal.
3
Solve the proportion for xx.
x=900x = 900
The denominator 4040 must be multiplied by 66 to get 240240. To keep the fraction equivalent, multiply the numerator 150150 by 66, yielding 900900.

A customer orders groceries through a delivery service. The subtotal of the groceries is $50.00\$50.00. The service charges a 10%10\% delivery fee and an 8%8\% sales tax, both calculated on the grocery subtotal. The customer then adds a 20%20\% tip, which is calculated on the amount after the delivery fee and tax are applied. What is the total final cost to the customer?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 70.8

Cevap

70.80
The final cost is found by first determining the intermediate amount after the fee and tax are added to the subtotal. The delivery fee is $5.00\$5.00 (10%10\% of $50\$50) and the tax is $4.00\$4.00 (8%8\% of $50\$50), bringing the intermediate total to $59.00\$59.00. The 20%20\% tip is calculated sequentially on this $59.00\$59.00 amount, which equals $11.80\$11.80. Adding the tip to the intermediate total yields the final cost of $70.80\$70.80.

The total area of the four exterior walls is 9,600 sq ft. The doors and windows have a combined area of 600 sq ft, leaving a net paintable area of 9,000 sq ft per coat. Since two coats are required, the total area to cover is 18,000 sq ft. With each gallon covering 400 sq ft, dividing 18,000 by 400 gives exactly 45 gallons.

Cevap: 6600

Cevap

6600
The correct calculation correctly subtracts the area of the utility columns to find the net area in square feet, correctly converts this area to square yards by dividing by 9, and then multiplies by the price per square yard to find the final total cost.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the gross area of the office.
2760 sq ft
The total rectangular area without accounting for the utility columns is 60×4660 \times 46.
2
Calculate the total area of the two utility columns.
60 sq ft
Each column is 6×5=30 sq ft6 \times 5 = 30\text{ sq ft}, and there are two of them, so 30×2=60 sq ft30 \times 2 = 60\text{ sq ft}.
3
Subtract the column area from the gross area.
2700 sq ft
This provides the net area that requires new flooring.
4
Convert the net area from square feet to square yards.
300 sq yd
The flooring cost is given per square yard, and there are 9 sq ft9\text{ sq ft} in 1 sq yd1\text{ sq yd}. Therefore, 2700÷9=3002700 \div 9 = 300.
5
Calculate the total cost of the flooring material.
6600
Multiply the area in square yards by the cost per square yard: 300×22=6600300 \times 22 = 6600.

A military supply vehicle is equipped with tires that have a radius of 1414 inches. How many complete revolutions does each tire make if the vehicle travels a straight-line distance of 1.51.5 miles? (Use π=227\pi = \frac{22}{7} and 1 mile=5,280 feet1 \text{ mile} = 5,280 \text{ feet}.)

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1080

Cevap

1080
The total distance must be converted into inches (1.5 miles×5,280 ft/mile×12 in/ft=95,040 inches1.5 \text{ miles} \times 5,280 \text{ ft/mile} \times 12 \text{ in/ft} = 95,040 \text{ inches}). The tire's circumference (2×227×14=88 inches2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 14 = 88 \text{ inches}) represents one revolution. Dividing the total distance by the circumference (95,040÷8895,040 \div 88) gives exactly 1,0801,080 complete revolutions.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the total travel distance from miles to feet.
1.5×5,280=7,9201.5 \times 5,280 = 7,920 feet
The distance must be in the same units as the tire measurements. It is easier to step down to feet first.
2
Convert the distance from feet to inches.
7,920×12=95,0407,920 \times 12 = 95,040 inches
Since the tire radius is in inches, the total distance must also be in inches to calculate revolutions accurately.
3
Calculate the circumference of the tire.
C=2×π×r=2×227×14=88C = 2 \times \pi \times r = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 14 = 88 inches
One revolution of the tire equals its circumference, representing the distance traveled in a single rotation.
4
Calculate the total number of complete revolutions.
95,040÷88=1,08095,040 \div 88 = 1,080 revolutions
Dividing the total distance by the distance per revolution yields the total number of revolutions.

Anahtar Kavram

Calculating distance traveled using wheel revolutions requires relating linear distance to circular circumference, while ensuring all units of measurement are consistent.

A business owner is paving a rectangular parking lot that measures 40 feet40\text{ feet} long and 30 feet30\text{ feet} wide. If the paving costs $5\$5 per square foot, what is the total cost of paving the lot in dollars?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 6000

Cevap

6000
The parking lot is a rectangle, so its area is found by multiplying the length by the width (40×30=1,200 sq ft40 \times 30 = 1,200\text{ sq ft}). Since the paving costs $5\$5 for every square foot, the total cost is the area multiplied by the rate (1,200×5=6,0001,200 \times 5 = 6,000). The final cost is $6,000\$6,000.
