Let C = the Chinese books.
Let E = the English language books.

C = 4/5 E

E - 300 = C - 180 Notice how you get this equation. You take 300 away from the English books and 180 from the Chinese and according to the question, you get an equal number of both. Put c = 4/5E into the second equation.

E - 300 = 4/5 E - 180 Add 300 to both sides.
E = 4/5 E - 180 + 300
E = 4/5 E + 120 Now subtract 4/5 E from both sidies.
E - 4/5 E = 120
1/5 E = 120 Now multiply by 5
E = 120 * 5
E = 600

So the number of books are
600 written in English
4/5 of 600 = 2400 /5 = 480 Chinese books.

English 600
Chinese 480

A pizza place has pizzas in 2 different sizes, with 8 different flavors for the crust, and 8 different toppings.

mamaluj [8]

Use multiplication:

$2\text{ sizes}*8\text{ flavors}*8\text{ toppings}=\large\boxed{128\text{ pizzas}}$

This question is basically the same as the other question of yours that I answered, so the explanation is very similar:

You can imagine the possibilities as leaves on a tree. Your tree has 2 large branches to represent the two possible sizes. Each of those branch off into 8 smaller branches, each representing a crust flavor. Each one of the smaller branches has 8 leaves to represent a different topping. Each leaf is a combination of a size, a crust flavor, and a topping, so it represents a complete pizza. Your job is to calculate the number of leaves.

A hollow metal sphere has 6 cm inner and 8cm outer radii. The surface charge densities on the exterior surface is +100 nC/m2 and

natulia [17]

Answer:

<h2>Outer Electric Field is 11250 N/C.</h2><h2>Inner Electric Field is -10000 N/C.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to read carefully and analyse the problem. As you can see, is an electrical subject, and it's given surface charge densities and radius.

So, to calculate electric fields, we need to find the proper equation to do so: $E=k\frac{q}{r^{2} }$ ; as you can see, first we need to find the charges.

We can find all charges using the surface charge densities, because it has the next relation: $p=\frac{q}{A}$ ; which indicates that charge density is the amount of charge per area. But, there's a problem, we don't have areas, so we have to calculate them first with this relation: $S=4\pi r^{2}$ ; which gives us the surface of a sphere.
