3 and 1/2=3 and 2/4
3 and 2/4-9 and 3/4=3-9+2/4-3/4=-6-1/4=-6 and 1/4
now
divide by -2 and 1/2
negative divided by negative is positive
also
dividingn fractions, invert secondn one and multiply them
(a/b)/(c/d)=(a/b)(d/c)=(ad)/(bc)
so
convert to improper
6 and 1/4=6+1/4=24/4+1/4=25/4
2 and 1/2=2+1/2=4/2+1/2=5/2

(25/4)/(5/2)=(25/4)(2/5)=50/20=5/2=2.5

answer is D

Saturn’s rings span up to about (7.5 · 10-1) of the distance between the Earth and its moons. If Saturn’s rings span up to (2.82
RUDIKE [14]
2.82 × 10^5 = (7.5×10^-1) × Length between the earth and the moon
Length between the earth and the moon = (2.82×10^5)÷(7.5×10^-1)                                                                     = 376000                                                                     = 3.76×10^5
i think this is correct hope it helps.

A farmer has 96 apples to sell at the farmers market. She wants to bag the apples before going. How many ways can the farmer bag
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer and explanation:

Farmer's number of apples = 96 apples

Given that Farmer needs to bag the apples so that there are at least 4 apples in each bag(not less than 4 apples in each bag) and not more than 10 apples in each bag

And also all apples in each bag are equal

We need to find the numbers between 4 and 10(including 4 and 10) that can divide 96 without a remainder

4 can divide 96= 24

5 cannot divide 96 without remainder

6 can divide 96 =16

7 cannot divide 96 without remainder

8 can divide 96=12

9 cannot divide 96 without remainder

10 cannot divide 96 without remainder

From the above we see that the factors of 96 = 4, 6, 8 between 4 and 10

4 apples = 24 bags

6 apples = 16 bags

8 apples = 12 bags

Therefore, there can be 3 possible ways of having equal number of apples in each bag between 4 and 10 apples

Given that Triangle ABC such that<br>a=8cm, b=7cm and c=9cm<br>tem and c= 9cm find Cos B​
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

We use cosine rule also called cosine law which states

c^2=a^2+b^2-2abcosC

given

a=8cm, b=7cm, c=9cm cos C?

9^2=8^+7^2-2*8*7 cos C

expand

81=64+49-112 cos C

like terms together

81-113=-112 cos C

-32=-112cos C

multiply both sides by -1

32=112cos C

divide both sides by 112

32/112=cos C

cosC=0.2857

find cos inverse of 0.2857

angle C= 73.40
