Answer:

<u>200 additional gallons of water are used when 40 people take a bath instead of a shower</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Amount of water used when we take a bath = 20 gallons

Amount of water used when we take a shower = 15 gallons

Number of people who wants to take a bath = 40

2. How much extra water is used?

Extra water is used = Number of people * (Amount of water used when we take a bath - Amount of water used when we take a shower)

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Extra water is used = 40 * (20 - 15)

Extra water is used = 40 * 5 = 200 gallons

PEMDAS - Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction

First, we do the exponents.

5² - 4 · 6 + 11

= 25 - 4 · 6 + 11

Next, multiplication (according to PEMDAS).

= 25 - 24 + 11

Although PEMDAS says addition then do subtraction, please note that this is totally interchangeable. For the sake of this problem, subtraction will be done first.

= 25 - 24 + 11

= 1 + 11

Finally, addition.

= 12

This is your answer. Happy studying~

An angle measures 79.4 degrees more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The angles are: 50.3 and 129.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of supplementary angles is 180°.

Let x be one angle then the other angle will be x+79.4

Using the supplementary angle sum

$x+x+79.4 = 180\\2x+79.4 = 180\\2x = 180-79.4\\2x = 100.6\\\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{100.6}{2}\\x = 50.3$

For the measurement of 2nd angle

x+79.4 => 50.3+79.4 => 129.7

Hence,

The angles are: 50.3 and 129.7

1/6+1/2 simplest form

vlada-n [284]

Lowest common denominator-> 6
1/2 multiply both top and bottom by 3 to get it in sixths
1/6+3/6=4/6
4/6 simplifies to 2/3.
2/3 is the simplest form to your question.
