Answer:
5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The two legs of Deborah's hike form the right-angle legs of a right triangle. The shortest distance is then the hypotenuse of that triangle, found using the Pythagorean theorem.
d^2 = 3^2 + 4^2 = 9 +16 = 25
d = √25 = 5
Deborah ends 5 miles from her start.
Answer:
Class 7A collected 4.8 ounces of pure gold.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Key skills required are: Percentages, Multiplication</u>
<u />
- We only need the information about Class 7A. They collected 40 oz that contains 12% gold.
- In other words, this means that 12% of that 40 oz gold sand is pure gold.
Here we have to do 12% x 40 to find the number of oz of pure gold. We first have to convert 12% into a decimal. Divide it by a 100 (or move the decimal point 2 places to the left) and you will get 0.12.
<em>Do 0.12 x 40 and you will get 4.8</em>
Therefore, there are 4.8 oz of pure gold in Class 7A's gold sand
Answer:
4^-2
Step-by-step explanation:
The rules of exponents tell you ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
This means ...
(4^6)(4^-8) = 4^(6-8) = 4^-2
Answer:
5 gift bags
Step-by-step explanation:
8 x 5 = 40
10 x 4 = 40
We'd divide.
This is because:
Gallons are much more than cups. If we cant to convert cups to gallons, we divide to get a smaller unit.
Example: There are 32 cups on the table. How many gallons are there?
32/amount of cups per gallon
32/16 = 2
2 gallons,
