Answer:

The new volume is $198.62\ cm^3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure upon it.

Initial volume is 160 cubic centimetres and initial pressure is 108 Pa. It is required to find the volume when the pressure is 87 centimetres.

According to given condition,

$V\propto \dfrac{1}{P}$

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

$V_2$ is new volume

$V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{P_1}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{160\times 108}{87}\\\\V_2=198.62\ cm^3$

So, the new volume is $198.62\ cm^3$ .

Use a calculator or a square root table to approximate to the nearest thousandth

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

- 13.077

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to calculate the square root of a certain number using the help of the calculator or a square root table.

The given expression is $- \sqrt{ 171 }$ .

Now, using calculator $\sqrt{ 171 } = 13.076696$

Now, $- \sqrt{ 171 } = - 13.076696$

So, approximate value to the nearest thousandth is - 13.077 ( Answer )

Answer:

19°

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation (triangles add up to 180 degrees)(Right angles are 90 degrees).

39 + 90 + 2x + 13 = 180

142 + 2x = 180

2x = 38

x = 19

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THESE FOUR QUESTIONS TYSMMM!!! THANK YOU

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

$107^\circ, 133^\circ, 20^\circ, \text{and}, 23^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

9. For the lines 'm' and 'n' to be parallel the sum of interior angles should be 180 degrees that is:

$x+73^\circ=180^\circ$

$x=107^\circ$

10. For the lines 'm' and 'n' to be parallel the alternate exterior angles should be equal that is:

$147^\circ=x+14^\circ$

$x=147^\circ-14^\circ$

$x=133^\circ$

11. For the lines 'm' and 'n' to be parallel alternate angles should be equal that is:

$180^\circ-3x=2x+20^\circ$

Solving for 'x' we get:

$180^\circ-20^\circ=3x+2x$

$5x=160^\circ$

$x=32^\circ$

12. For the lines 'm' and 'n' to be parallel corresponding angles should be equal that is:

$(7x-11)^\circ=(4x+58)^\circ$

$7x-4x=58^\circ+11^\circ$

$3x=69^\circ$

$x=\frac{69}{3}=23^\circ$
