Suppose you fill a glass with ice cubes .When the ice cubes melt, is the glass still full ?

1 answer:

7 0

Well, you can't "fill" the glass with ice cubes to begin with.
The ice cubes never fit together perfectly, and there are always
a lot of air-spaces between them. When the ice melts, there is
almost exactly the same amount of air in the glass as there was
originally. (Actually, a tiny bit more, for other reasons.)

6. Suppose that y varies inversely with x. Write an equation for the inverse variation,

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

If y varies inversely as x, then we write it as:

y = k/x

where k is some constant.

If we multiply both sides of this equation by x we get an equation for k:

k = x*y

We are given that y=4 when x=7, therefore:

k = 7*4 = 28

Put this back into our original equation to get:

y = 28/x

Find the quotient.

Answer :

$B. 16 {a}^{2}c$

step-by-step explanation :

$48 {a}^{3}b{c}^{2} \div 3abc$

This can be rewritten as:

$\frac{ 48 {a}^{3}b {c}^{2} }{3abc}$

Now,

$\frac{48}{3}=16$

The law of indices states that:

$\frac{ {a}^{m} }{ {a}^{n} } = {a}^{m - n}$

It implies that, when dividing two expressions with the same bases, repeat one of the bases and subtract the exponents.

Therefore,

$\frac{ {a}^{3} }{a}= {a}^{3 - 1} = {a}^{2}$

$\frac{b}{b} = {b}^{1 - 1} = {b}^{0} = 1$

Note: Any non-zero number exponent zero is 1

Also

$\frac{ {c}^{2} }{c} = {c}^{2 - 1} = {c}^{1} = c$

Hence:

$\frac{ 48 {a}^{3}b {c}^{2} }{3abc} = 16 {a}^{2}c$
