I found the answer to this by first dividing 34 by 4 to get 8.5. We already know what 4 divided by 4 is. For every one pound of almonds, it costs $8.50. Since we know that we need to find out how much it costs for 5 pounds of almonds, we simply multiply 8.5 by 5 to get 42.5. It costs $42.50 to buy 5 pounds of almonds.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate for the value of
:

-Use <u>Distributive Property</u> on both left and right:


-Take
and subtract
:


-Add
to both sides:


-Take
and divide on both sides:


Therefore, the value of
is
.
Answer:
0.049168726 light-years
Step-by-step explanation:
The apparent brightness of a star is
where
<em>L = luminosity of the star (related to the Sun)
</em>
<em>d = distance in ly (light-years)
</em>
The luminosity of Alpha Centauri A is 1.519 and its distance is 4.37 ly.
Hence the apparent brightness of Alpha Centauri A is
According to the inverse square law for light intensity
where
light intensity at distance
light intensity at distance
Let
be the distance we would have to place the 50-watt bulb, then replacing in the formula
Remark: It is worth noticing that Alpha Centauri A, though is the nearest star to the Sun, is not visible to the naked eye.
Using the cross product property on this proportion gives us the following equation:
20 (2x - 9) = 10 (9)
Use the distributive property and multiply
40x - 180 = 90
Add 180 to both sides
40x = 270
Divide 40 from both sides
x = 270/40
Simplify fraction
x = 27/4
This should be your answer. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
Those should be odd integers if I’m wrong let Me know and I’ll fix it for you
