Given:
1/2 pound of flour
split the flour into 3 bags of equal weight.

1/2 ÷ 3 

In dividing fractions, you must remember to get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction and multiply it to the 1st fraction.

3 is the 2nd fraction. Its reciprocal is 1/3

1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6 pound of flour.

The False statement is:
C. Each bag has 1/3 pound of flour.

Solve the following application problem. Be sure to show your system of equations and the steps to solve the problem.
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

  • boat: 6 mph
  • current: 2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between time, speed, and distance is ...

  speed = distance/time

For boat speed b and current speed c, the speed downstream is ...

  b +c = (16 mi)/(2 h) = 8 mi/h

The speed upstream is ...

  b -c = (16 mi)/(4 h) = 4 mi/h

Adding the two equations eliminates the c term:

  2b = 12 mi/h

  b = 6 mi/h . . . . . divide by 2

Solving the second equation for c, we get ...

  c = b -4 mi/h = 6 mi/h -4 mi/h = 2 mi/h

The speed of the boat in still water is 6 mi/h; the current is 2 mi/h.

One terameter equals 1012 meters. One micrometer equals 10 meter.
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

<h2>a)  10⁶metres</h2><h2>b) 10¹⁸metres</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given One terameter equals 10¹² meters. One micrometer equals 10⁻⁶ meter, one nanometer equals 10⁻⁹meter;

a) The product of one terameter and one micrometer will be expressed as;

10¹²  * 10⁻⁶

Since the both have the same base, we will add their power according to one of the law in indices as shown

10¹²  * 10⁻⁶ = 10⁻⁶⁺¹²

= 10⁶metres

b) The quotient of one terameter and one micrometer can be gotten by taking their ratio as shown below;

Note that when taking the quotient, the power are subtracted

= \frac{10^{12} }{10^{-6} } \\= 10^{12-(-6)}  \\= 10^{12+6} \\= 10^{18}metres

If an interest rate of 5% results in interest of $50,<br> what is the principal amount of the loan?
Luba_88 [7]
X times 0.05 = $50
Solve for x

We do the inverse of times which is divide

$50 divide by 0.05 = $1000

Thus, $1000 is the amount of loan.
