Answer: the sand in the new terrarium is 2 inches deep.
Step-by-step explanation:
Zach has a terrarium with the dimensions of 20 by 8 and the terrarium was filled with 3 inches of sand. It means that the volume of sand that this terrarium contains is
20 × 8 × 3 = 480 inches³
Zach gets a new terrarium that is larger with the dimensions of 10 by 24. If Zach moved the existing sand in the new terrarium and the height of the sand is represented by h, then the volume of sand into he new terrarium is
10 × 24 × h = 240h
Since the volume of sand in both terrariums is equal, then
240h = 480
h = 480/240
h = 2 inches
First we will find out the values of a
a/4=b/7
a=4b/7
Now
(a-b)/b
{4b/7-b}/b
(4b-7b)/7b
-3b/7b
-3/7
Twice a number decreased by 11 is -23
Let the number be x
So we get the equation
2x -11 = -23
Add 11 to both sides
2x = -12
Divide both sides by 2
x = -6
So the number is -6
Negative 6
Answer:
The sun is 9.2549 x 10^-7 miles from the earth
NOTE: I don't know how many significant figures you are needing/given.
Step-by-step explanation:
The earth is 92.549 million miles from the sun.
92 549 000 miles from the sun.
Move the decimal place left until you're right after the first significant figure.
9.2549 x 10^-7
