question:Alex is a casual gamer who loves playing video games but dislikes using touchscreen controls. To enhance his gaming experience, he decides to buy a new gaming controller. The controller he wants costs 45. Alex has been saving money from doing chores around the house. He earns 5 each time he washes the dishes, 8 for cleaning his room, and 10 for mowing the lawn. Over the past two weeks, Alex washed the dishes 4 times, cleaned his room 3 times, and mowed the lawn 5 times. How much more money does Alex need to buy the gaming controller?

answer:To find out how much more money Alex needs to buy the gaming controller, we need to calculate how much money he has already earned and then determine the difference between that amount and the cost of the controller.1. Calculate the total money earned by washing dishes: - Alex earns 5 each time he washes the dishes. - He washed the dishes 4 times. - Total earnings from washing dishes = 4 times × 5 = 20.2. Calculate the total money earned by cleaning his room: - Alex earns 8 each time he cleans his room. - He cleaned his room 3 times. - Total earnings from cleaning his room = 3 times × 8 = 24.3. Calculate the total money earned by mowing the lawn: - Alex earns 10 each time he mows the lawn. - He mowed the lawn 5 times. - Total earnings from mowing the lawn = 5 times × 10 = 50.4. Calculate the total money Alex has earned: - Total money earned = Earnings from washing dishes + Earnings from cleaning his room + Earnings from mowing the lawn. - Total money earned = 20 + 24 + 50 = 94.5. Determine how much more money Alex needs: - The controller costs 45. - Alex has already earned 94. - Since 94 is greater than 45, Alex does not need more money; instead, he has extra money. - Extra money Alex has = Total money earned - Cost of the controller. - Extra money = 94 - 45 = 49.Since Alex has already earned more than the cost of the controller, he does not need any more money.# 0

question:Jamie, an undergraduate majoring in humanities, is exploring different academic resources to broaden their knowledge. They decide to visit the library, where they find three sections: literature, history, and philosophy. Jamie wants to spend equal time in each section and has a total of 3 hours available. If Jamie reads 5 books in the literature section, 3 books in the history section, and 4 books in the philosophy section, how many books does Jamie read in total during their library visit?

answer:To solve the problem, we need to determine the total number of books Jamie reads during the library visit. We are given the number of books Jamie reads in each section:1. Literature Section: Jamie reads 5 books.2. History Section: Jamie reads 3 books.3. Philosophy Section: Jamie reads 4 books.To find the total number of books read, we simply add the number of books read in each section together:[text{Total books read} = text{Books in Literature} + text{Books in History} + text{Books in Philosophy}]Substituting the given numbers:[text{Total books read} = 5 + 3 + 4]Calculating the sum:[5 + 3 = 8][8 + 4 = 12]Thus, the total number of books Jamie reads during the library visit is 12.# 12

question:Father Michael, a devout Catholic priest with a fascination for exorcisms and the spiritual realm, has been asked to visit several parishes to perform blessings and give talks on spiritual protection. He plans to visit 5 parishes in one week. At each parish, he spends 3 hours performing exorcisms, 2 hours conducting blessing ceremonies, and 1 hour giving a talk on the spiritual realm. How many total hours will Father Michael spend on these activities during the week?

answer:To solve this problem, we need to calculate the total number of hours Father Michael will spend on his activities for the week by breaking down the time spent at each parish and then multiplying by the number of parishes he visits.Step 1: Determine the total time spent at each parish.- Time spent performing exorcisms: 3 hours- Time spent conducting blessing ceremonies: 2 hours- Time spent giving a talk on the spiritual realm: 1 hourTotal time spent at each parish = 3 hours (exorcisms) + 2 hours (blessings) + 1 hour (talk) Total time at each parish = 6 hoursStep 2: Calculate the total time spent for all 5 parishes.Since Father Michael visits 5 parishes, we multiply the total time spent at each parish by the number of parishes:Total time for 5 parishes = 6 hours per parish × 5 parishes Total time for 5 parishes = 30 hoursThus, Father Michael will spend a total of 30 hours on these activities during the week.# 30

question:Maria is a fashion-influencer and style blogger from Moscow, Russia. She is planning a fashion event where she will showcase her favorite outfits from her latest collection. Maria has 12 different outfits to display, and she wants to post about them on her blog over the course of 4 days. She decides to feature an equal number of outfits each day. Additionally, Maria wants to take 3 photos of each outfit for her blog post. How many photos will Maria take in total for her outfits over the 4 days?

answer:To solve the problem, we can follow these steps:1. Determine the number of outfits per day: Maria has 12 different outfits and plans to feature an equal number each day over 4 days. To find out how many outfits she will feature each day, we divide the total number of outfits by the number of days: [ text{Outfits per day} = frac{12 text{ outfits}}{4 text{ days}} = 3 text{ outfits per day} ]2. Determine the number of photos Maria takes per day: Maria plans to take 3 photos of each outfit. Since she features 3 outfits per day, the number of photos she will take each day is: [ text{Photos per day} = 3 text{ outfits per day} times 3 text{ photos per outfit} = 9 text{ photos per day} ]3. Calculate the total number of photos over 4 days: To find the total number of photos Maria will take, multiply the number of photos per day by the number of days: [ text{Total photos} = 9 text{ photos per day} times 4 text{ days} = 36 text{ photos} ]Therefore, Maria will take a total of 36 photos for her outfits over the 4 days.# 36

question:As an experienced race engineer, you have been through countless successes and failures. Your team is preparing for an upcoming race and you need to calculate the optimal pit stop strategy. During practice sessions, you observed that each tire change takes 7 seconds and refueling takes 20 seconds. Your team plans to perform 3 pit stops in the race. In the first pit stop, you will change 4 tires and add fuel. In the second pit stop, you will change 2 tires and add fuel. In the third pit stop, you will change 4 tires but won't refuel. Calculate the total time your team will spend in the pit stops during the race.

answer:To calculate the total time spent in pit stops, we need to determine the time spent in each of the three pit stops separately and then sum them up.1. First Pit Stop: - Tire Change: 4 tires × 7 seconds/tire = 28 seconds - Refueling: 20 seconds - Total time for the first pit stop = 28 seconds + 20 seconds = 48 seconds2. Second Pit Stop: - Tire Change: 2 tires × 7 seconds/tire = 14 seconds - Refueling: 20 seconds - Total time for the second pit stop = 14 seconds + 20 seconds = 34 seconds3. Third Pit Stop: - Tire Change: 4 tires × 7 seconds/tire = 28 seconds - No refueling - Total time for the third pit stop = 28 secondsNow, sum up the times for all three pit stops to find the total time spent in the pit stops during the race:Total time = 48 seconds (first pit stop) + 34 seconds (second pit stop) + 28 seconds (third pit stop)Total time = 110 seconds#110

question:A statistician is analyzing datasets from two different industries: technology and healthcare. In the technology dataset, she finds that the average number of hours people spend on electronic devices per day is 4 hours. In the healthcare dataset, she discovers that the average number of hours spent exercising per day is 1.5 hours. She wants to compare the total time spent on these activities over a week for an average person from each dataset. Calculate the difference in the total number of hours spent on electronic devices compared to exercising over a 7-day week. How many more hours does the average person spend on electronic devices than on exercising in one week?

answer:To solve this problem, we need to calculate the total hours spent on electronic devices and exercising over a 7-day week for an average person in each dataset, and then find the difference.Step 1: Calculate total hours spent on electronic devices in a week.- Average hours spent per day on electronic devices: 4 hours- Total hours spent in a week = Average daily hours × Number of days in a week- Total hours spent on electronic devices in a week = 4 hours/day × 7 days = 28 hoursStep 2: Calculate total hours spent exercising in a week.- Average hours spent per day exercising: 1.5 hours- Total hours spent in a week = Average daily hours × Number of days in a week- Total hours spent exercising in a week = 1.5 hours/day × 7 days = 10.5 hoursStep 3: Calculate the difference in total hours spent between electronic devices and exercising.- Difference in hours = Total hours spent on electronic devices - Total hours spent exercising- Difference in hours = 28 hours - 10.5 hours = 17.5 hoursThe average person from the technology dataset spends 17.5 more hours on electronic devices than the average person from the healthcare dataset spends exercising over a week.# 17.5
