The average ocean depth is 3.7 × 103 m, and the area of the oceans is 3.6 × 1014 m2. What is the total volume of the ocean in liters? (One cubic meter contains 1000 liters. Round your answer to one decimal place.)
13 hours
78.00 ÷ 6.00 equals 13 hours
6×13 equals 78
1/2 : 1
2 : 4
3 : 6
Notice that every ratio consists of a number and double the number.
For 1/2 cup lemon juice, use 1 cup sugar.
The amount of sugar is twice the amount of lemon juice.
The ratio is 1:2
Since you are told the ratio is 1:r, that means r is 2.
The unit rate is 2 cups sugar per cup of lemon juice.
First, disregard the sign for absolute value and solve for x.
2x - 1 = 3x + 5
2x - 3x = 5 + 1
-x = 6
x = -6
Now, you have to interpret the absolute value. The absolute value of x is always the positive version of whatever the number is. Since x = -6, its absolute value is 6. Therefore, the possible value for x is only one, which is 6.
