Answer:

0.80mph

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/5 = 1/4, then:

she swims 1/5 miles for every 1/4 (fourth) of an hour

per hour means 1 hour

we must covert 1/4 to 4/4 (one mile)

1/4 × 4/1 = 4/4

if we multiply by 4/1 to get to 4/4, then we must also multiply by 4/1 for 1/5 miles

1/5 × 4/1 = 4/5

Her unit rate in miles per hour is 4/5 per 1 miles, or 0.80mph

*0.80 = 4/5 because 4 × 20 = 80 and 5 × 20 = 100; 80/100 = 0.80*

Helppp this is my math test <br><br> Which model is 85% shaded?

Anettt [7]

Answer:

Model 1 represents 85% shaded area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, each model consists of equal sized rectangles.

Please refer to attached figure to know the model number.

Model 2 (on top right of question figure) contains a total of 20 such rectangles out of which 13 are shaded. As per formula of percentage:

$\text{Percentage of shaded area} = \dfrac{\text{Number of shaded rectangles}}{\text{Total number of rectangles}} \times 100\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{13}{20}\times 100 = 65\%$

Model 3 (on bottom left of question figure) contains a total of 16 such rectangles out of which 10 are shaded. As per formula of percentage:

$\text{Percentage of shaded area} = \dfrac{10}{16}\times 100 = 62.5\%$

Model 4 (on bottom right of question figure) contains a total of 16 such rectangles out of which 13 are shaded. As per formula of percentage:

$\text{Percentage of shaded area} = \dfrac{13}{16}\times 100 = 81.25\%$

Model 1 (on top left of question figure) contains a total of 20 such rectangles out of which 17 are shaded. As per formula of percentage:

$\text{Percentage of shaded area} = \dfrac{17}{20}\times 100 = 85\%$

Hence, model 1 is the correct answer.

P^3×q^2(p^4×q^n×r^3/r^-4)=p^7q^5r^7 <br><br> What does n=

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$n = 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation given is:

$p^3q^2(p^4q^n\times \frac{r^3}{r^{-4}})=p^7q^5r^7$

We simplify the given equation using the following law of indices:

$a^m\times a^n=a^{m+n}\\\frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}$

Therefore,

$p^{3+4}q^{n+2}\times r^{3-(-4)})=p^7q^5r^7\\p^7q^{n+2}r^7=p^7q^5r^7\\q^{n+2}=q^5$

Since the base on both the sides is same, therefore, their exponents must also be same. This gives,

$n+2=5\\n=5-2\\n=3$

Therefore, the value of 'n' is 3.
