First, divide the total pounds of food eaten by 7 (7 days in a week).
2,100/7 = 300 pounds
Then divide this quotient by the 5 hippos.
300/5 = 60 pounds
Therefore, each hippo eats 60 pounds of food every day.
<span>The names of the three eras identified on the x-axis in model 1 answers are Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic. It can be seen from the graph that a mass extinction happened 444 million years ago in Paleozoic era, another happened 254 million years ago at end of Paleozoic era and marked the beginning of Mesozoic era. The final mass extinction happened 65 million years ago at end of Mesozoic era in which dinosaurs went extinct.</span>
Answer:
The speed of the boat in still water is 18 mph.
The speed of the current is 2 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the boat in still water.
Let y represent the speed of the current.
When the boat goes against the current, the speed is 16 mph. Assuming it traveled against the current while going upstream, its total speed would be (x - y) mph. It means that
x - y = 16 (equation 1)
Going downstream, the boat averages 20 mph. Assuming it traveled with the current, its total speed would be (x + y) mph. It means that
x + y = 20 (equation 2)
Adding both equations, it becomes
2x = 36
x = 36/2
x = 18 mph
Substituting x = 18 into equation 1, it becomes
18 - y = 16
y = 18 - 16
y = 2 mph
Answer:
angle DFG = 49 degrees
angle JKL = 41 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
When angles are complementary with each other, it means that if you add both of the angles up, it adds up to 90 degrees.
In this question, you would have to add up angle DFG and angle JKL and find the x that makes the equation equal to 90 degrees.
angle DFG = x + 5
angle JKL = x - 3
(x + 5) + (x - 3) = 90
2x + 2 = 90
2x = 90 - 2
2x = 88
x = 44
But since we have to find out the angle measures, we have to the "x = 44" with the x's in the DFG and JKL angles.
DFG = (44) + 5 = 49
JKL = (44) - 3 = 41
Answer:
Simplifying
9x + 7 = 5x + -3
Reorder the terms:
7 + 9x = 5x + -3
Reorder the terms:
7 + 9x = -3 + 5x
Solving
7 + 9x = -3 + 5x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.
7 + 9x + -5x = -3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 9x + -5x = 4x
7 + 4x = -3 + 5x + -5x
Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0
7 + 4x = -3 + 0
7 + 4x = -3
Add '-7' to each side of the equation.
7 + -7 + 4x = -3 + -7
Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0
0 + 4x = -3 + -7
4x = -3 + -7
Combine like terms: -3 + -7 = -10
4x = -10
Divide each side by '4'.
x = -2.5
Simplifying
x = -2.5
