Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the whole number 14 to a fraction with 1 in the denominator.

We then have:

4/7 : 14 = 4/7 : 14/1

Convert fractions to integers by eliminating the denominators.

We now have:

4/7 : 14 = 4/7 : 98/7

Our two fractions now have like denominators so we can multiply both by 7 to eliminate the denominators.

We then have:

4/7 : 14 = 4 : 98

Try to reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).

The GCF of 4 and 98 is 2

Divide both terms by the GCF, 2:

4 ÷ 2 = 2

98 ÷ 2 = 49

The ratio 4 : 98 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 2 :

4 : 98 = 2 : 49

Therefore:

4/7 : 14 = 2 : 49

The temperature in degrees Celsius can be determined using the expression 5 9 (F – 32) where F is the temperature in degrees Fah

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The temperature on Celsius scale for 86 ºF is 30 ºC.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit are relative scales of temperature. The relationship between degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius is summarized by the equation below:

$T_{C} = \frac{5}{9}\cdot (T_{F}-32)$ (1)

Where:

$T_{F}$ - Temperature, measured in degrees Fahrenheit.

$T_{C}$ - Temperature, measured in degrees Celsius.

If we know that $T_{F} = 86\,^{\circ}F$ , then its equivalent temperature on Celsius scale is:

$T_{C} = \frac{5}{9}\cdot (86-32)$

$T_{C} = 30\,^{\circ}C$

The temperature on Celsius scale for 86 ºF is 30 ºC.

What is -15x(-7) ( integer operation)

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

$- 15x( - 7) = 105x$
Not much more to say about this. Just multiply the integer by the coefficient.

The area of the square hole is 8 square centimeters. The volume of a cube shaped block is 64 cubic centimeters. Which edge lengt

damaskus [11]

case a) The area of the square hole is 8 square centimeters

we know that

the area of a square is equal to

$A=b^{2}$

where

b is the length side of the square

in this problem we have

$A=8\ cm^{2}$

Find the length side b

$b^{2} = 8 \\b= \sqrt{8} \ cm\\b= 2\sqrt{2} \ cm$

the answer Part a) is

the length side of the square is $2\sqrt{2} \ cm$

Part b) The volume of a cube shaped block is 64 cubic centimeters

we know that

the volume of a cube is equal to

$V=b^{3}$

where

b is the length side of the cube

in this problem we have

$V=64\ cm^{3}$

Find the length side b

$b^{3} = 64 \\b= \sqrt[3]{64} \\b= 4\ cm$

therefore

the answer Part b) is

the length side of the cube is $4\ cm$
