So 2/3 mile in 8 mins
find 3/3
2/3x=8
3/3x=?

easy way is
2/3 mile=8
divide by 2
1/3mile=4
multiply by 3
3/3mile=12

12 mins

Molly ran 1 mile in 12 Minutes because....
2/3 = 8 mins
1/3 = 8÷2=4 since 1/3rd is half of 2/3
3/3 = 12 Mins Total because 4 × 3

Find the quotient of 2,300 and (0.4 · 10-8). In your final answer, include all of your calculations.

BigorU [14]

The first number in this item can be also expressed as 2.3 x 10³. Now, dividing the numbers 2.3 and 0.4 will give us an answer of 5.75. There exists a rule which states that when two similar numbers are divided only having different exponents, their exponents should be subtracted. The final answer to this item is therefore,
5.75 x 10¹¹

Please help... need help ASAP due today... which ones are the answers?

Answer:

Choices 1 and 4 are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find what the slope of the line is. That way, we can find out which possible answers are perpendicular to it:

$\frac{4-(-2)}{3-1}=\frac{6}{2}=3$

Since we now have the slope, we need the negative reciprocal of it. Remember: if x is the slope, it's negative reciprocal will be $-\frac{1}{x}$ . Therefore, if the line's slope is 3, then we need to find answers with a slope of $-\frac{1}{3}$ .

The first answer is correct, as you have marked. The second answer, while written a little weirdly, does show the slope as 3, which we know as wrong. The third choice is not correct, however. This equation is written in point-slope form, where $y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$ . The only variable we have to worry about is m, which, in the third choice, is 3. The fourth answer is correct, which sounds weird at first. Let's put that equation into slope-intercept form:
