We use the given data above to calculate the volume of gasoline that is being burned per minute by commercial airplanes. 

Amount burned of 1 commercial airplane = <span>3.9 × 10³ ml of gasoline per second
Number of airplanes = </span><span>5.1 × 10³ airplanes

We calculate as follows:

</span> 3.9 × 10³ ml of gasoline per second / 1 airplane (5.1 × 10³ airplanes)(60 second / 1 min ) = <span>1.2 x 10^9 mL / min</span>

svp [43]
I believe the answer would be 50

explanation:

calculate
2 ÷ 5^-2

use negative power rule x^-a = 1/x^a
2 ÷ 1/5^2

simply 5^2 to 25
2 ÷ 1/25

use this rule a ÷ b/c = a • c/b
2 • 25

simplify

-2x + 3x - 5 = 6 - 21<br><br> FIND x
trasher [3.6K]

Before we do any solving, we need to simplify both sides.

On the left, we can simplify -2x + 3x - 5 to x - 5.

On the right, we can simplify 6 - 21 to -16.

So we have x - 5 = -16.

Solving from here, we add 5 to both sides to get x = -11.
