6 0

Answer:

-40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

3/5×X = -24

cross multiply

3x = -24×5

3x= - 120

divide by 3

3x/3 = -120/3

x = -40

the number is -40

A right cylinder has a diameter of 30 mm and a height of 30 mm, as shown.
Semmy [17]
"As shown" ?  You have a picture to work with but you're not sharing it ?

Fortunately, the question includes all the information that's needed to answer it,
so I don't need to see the picture.

The volume of a cylinder is (pi) x (radius)² x (height) .

Radius = 1/2 of the diameter = 15 mm

Volume = (pi) x (15 mm)² x (30 mm) = 6,750 pi mm³ = 21,205.75 mm³ .

That's a correct answer, but the number is slightly awkward and inconvenient.  Let's
change it to a bigger unit, so the number will be smaller and easier to carry around.

Remember that 10 mm = 1 cm

So (10 mm)³ = 1,000 mm³ = 1 cm³

and 21,205.75 mm³ = 21.20575 cm³

Find the product and explain the process and reasoning step by step <br><br> $0.79 × 3.7 =
andrezito [222]

The units of the first number are "dollars." The second number has no apparent units, so we'll consider it a "pure number". This means the product will have the units of "dollars."

The two numbers together have 2+1=3 digits to the right of the decimal point(s). This means the final product will have 3 digits to the right of the decimal point. Since one of the factors is "dollars," it seems likely the result will need to be rounded to cents (2 decimal places). We'll provide the answer both ways (with 3 and with 2 decimal places.)

With these preliminaries out of the way, we have the problem of multiplying

... 79 × 37

There are numerous methods taught for finding this product. In the end, they all amount to multiplying every digit in one number by every digit in the other number and adding the results with appropriate place values. Several methods use 2-dimensional tables or arrays in their process. Here, we will use text on a line.

... 79 × 37 = (70 +9) × (30 +7)

... = 70×30 + 9×30 + 70×7 + 9×7

... = 2100 + 270 +490 + 63

... = 2100 +760 +63

... = 2860 +63

... = 2923

Putting the decimal point 3 places from the right, and adding the dollar sign gives our product:

... $0.79 × 3.7 = $2.923 ≈ $2.92

In a 45-45-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is 7, find both the legs
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: If the hypotenuse is 7, the other 2 sides are \sqrt{24.5} 0r about = 4.95

Step-by-step explanation:  in a 45-45-90 triangle, the legs are equal.

a² + b² = c² .   2(a²) = 49  a² = 49/2

So find the square root of 24.5

\sqrt{24.5}   =4.949747468 .round to 4.95

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Molly paid for each song $1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ------> amount that Molly paid for each song

we know that

The amount that Molly paid for each song multiplied by 8 is equal to the gift card value

so

The linear equation that represent this problem is

8x=12

Solve for x

Divide by 8 both sides

x=12/8

x=\$1.5

Molly paid for each song $1.5
