Answer:

The correct option is B) 4800 square miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the fire covered 300 square miles in 3 days ago. And it continues to grow at the same rate.

Therefore, today it covers the twice of area it covers on yesterday.

The area covers by fire 2×300=600 square miles

Now the area covers after 3 days from today will be:

2×2×300 = 2×600 = 1200 square miles

The area covers after 3×2=6 days from today is:

2×2×2×300 = 2400 square miles

The area covers after 3×3=9 days from today is:

2×2×2×2×300 = 4800 square miles

Hence, the correct option is B) 4800 square miles.

Solve the equation for z <br>5z-8=32<br>A. z=4<br>B. z=4.8<br>C. z=6<br>D. z=8​
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Z=8 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you add 8 to both sides which leaves you with 5z=40. then after that you divide both sides by 5 which leaves you with 5/5z = 40/5. then buy dividing 5 by 5 its leaves you with 1 which is equal to z because blank variables equal 1. On the other side if the equation 40 by 5 is 8 so that leaves you with z=8
