You work as a dental hygienist, seeing patients for 6 hours each workday. each of your appointments with a patient takes the same amount of time. currently, you see 9 patients per workday. how many more minutes would you be able to spend with each patient if you saw only 8 patients per workday, still seeing patients for 6 hours each workday and spending an equal amount of time with each patient?

5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

9/6=40 mins per patient

8/6=45 mins per patient

The answer is 5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

You work as a dental hygienist, seeing patients for 6 hours each workday. Currently, you see 9 patients per workday.

Means for 1 patient you spend hours

Or per patient.

When 8 patients are seen then per patient time spent is = hours

or   per patient.

Then in the second case you spend more minutes per patient.

Thus, the answer is 5 minutes.

.24

step-by-step explanation:

the probability is   .24

the first player had the highest probability of getting a silver marble

the game could be made fair by adding back the marble that was drawn after each draw

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
