1. B
50 inch x 8 = 400 inches
400inches * 1foot/12inches = 33.3333 feet
.3333 feet = 1/3 feet = 4 inches
33'4''

2. E
3. D
2,4,6,8,10 =estrogen
2,3,5,7,= progesterone
4. A
puzzled me at first but i got it
only info needed is grain filled at October 31st with 500lbs
she uses 35lbs/month and how much is left in end of may ....
thats 7 months
35 x 7 = 245
500-245= 255lbs

5. dunno... guessing B

sry for any mistakes.. i am just really exhausted

4)a
5)b

#3 is like the math destroyer question..the answer is 8 times..in the destroyer solutions 2 counts as one clap

 

[Streetwolf]

That's ridiculous, the odds of them clapping in unison are essentially 0%.

 

[TimeforDAT]

That's ridiculous, the odds of them clapping in unison are essentially 0%.

yeah..initially when i did the problem, i thought their claps at #2 would be both counted..but for some reason i'm not sure why they count it as one clap...someone please shed some light on that

 

[Toothguy80]

It cant be 8...

even numbers....2,4,6,8,10
prime numbers....1,2,3,5,7

2 is one clap because they both do it at the same time so you only hear one clap...

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10

that's 9 numbers and therefore, 9 claps...destroyer must be wrong.

1 is not a prime number.

And I don't buy the whole 'two claps are heard as one' unless explicitly said in the problem.

 

[Toothguy80]

damn, I didn't know 1 wasnt a prime numbah.

I know now

dude, if you and I both clap at the same time, it's just 1 clap, it'll only be heard as one clap, that's why the answer is 8 without the 1 being a prime numbah(Im trying to say it with a Boston accent)😀

No it's still 2 claps 🙂 I just don't like problems where there's room for interpretation. It should be clear cut.

And I hate the Boston accent. I spent 4 years of hell there at college and now I'm free! 😀

And for the record it would be something like: numBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHREDSOX

destroyer still considers it one clap

 

[Toothguy80]

You're so funny...

Yeah man, I hate Boston as well...it's hell on earth,

no luxury, no customer service, unfriendly people, violence...unsafe place

the accent is funny to listen to, but they sounds like ex-cons...lol

So cold there too and people drive like they are trying to get away from a tsunami.

And what's up with everyone wearing Red Sox, it's like Boston only makes clothing with the Red Sox label, so if there were no Red Sox, everyone would be butt-naked riding on the T.........lol

The answer is 9 but you can hear two distinct claps for number 2 so it does count for 2. One is not prime.

are you saying destroyer is wrong about this then?

 

[Streetwolf]

IDK about him but I'm saying this question sucks. I think the point of it was that 2 is a prime number and 1 is not.

 

[littlemissy]

you guys don't post destroyer questions. his work is copy righted. i am sure he won't appreciate it.
