No they're not equivalent because 12 divided by 17 is 0.705 and 10 divided by 15 is 0.66

12 : 17  (Simplest form)

10 : 15 (divide by 5)
2 : 5 (simplest form)

Comparing 12:17 and 2:5, they are not eqivalent

What is a good estimate for the solution to the equation x3 = 95 how do you come up with your estimate
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

3x = 95

95 ÷ 3 = 31.6666......

I used bus stop method to work this out

Therefore the estimate would be:

x = 32 or 31.7 depending on how accurate it needs to be.

You could alternatively change 95 to 96 and calculate it easily like that

How can the order of operations be used to simplify expressions?
Lapatulllka [165]
Order of Operations, also known as PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication & Division, Addition & Subtraction), can help to simplify an equation by guiding you through the steps to solve it.

This is because it tells you to solve the parentheses. If there is none, but you've already done this, you solve for exponents, etc. 

The progressive soling of the equation not only makes it physically shorter, but also brings you closer to the answer.

Hope this helps, and I was the brainliest! :)

PLZ HELP WORTH A LOT OF POINTS AND I HAVE 10 MINUTES!!!!
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The area after 9 years will be 1,234 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating what the area of a certain forest that decreases at a certain percentage would be after some years.

To answer this question, we shall be using an exponential approximation.

Now, to use this exponential approximation, we shall be needing a supporting exponential mathematical equation.

This can be written as;

A = I(1-r)^t

where A is the new area we are looking for

I is the initial area which is 1700 according to the question

r is the rate of decrease which is 3.5% = 3.5/100 = 0.035

t is time which is 9 years according to the question

We plug these values and have the following;

A = 1700(1-0.035)^9

A = 1700(0.965)^9

A = 1,233.66

This is 1,234 km^2 to the nearest square kilometer

Simplify. (−5 p 4 z 6 u) 3
ser-zykov [4K]
In this expression, solve the multiplication in the parenthesis. 
-5×p×4×z×6×u
since multiplication is commutative, 
-5×p×4×z×6×u=-5×4×6×p×z×u= -120pzu

Now multiply this by 3.
(-5p4z6u)3 = (-120pzu)3 = -360pzu
