Answer:

Malcolm would fill 8 bags of rice.

Step-by-step explanation:

The size of the container of rice = 5\frac{1}{4} pounds = \frac{21}{4} pounds.

Each bag of rice has a capacity of \frac{5}{8} pounds.

The number of bags of rice that Malcolm fills = \frac{total quantity of rice}{capacity of each bag}

                                          =  \frac{21}{4} ÷ \frac{5}{8}

                                          =  \frac{21}{4} x \frac{8}{5}

                                          = \frac{42}{5}

                                          = 8\frac{2}{5}

Therefore, Malcolm would be able to fill 8 bags of rice.

If lines ab and cd are parallel, which of the following statements are true?
LiRa [457]
The correct answers are:
(D) a<span>b ll cd 
(F) a</span><span>b and cd are coplanar

Explanation:
The symbol for parallel is " </span>ll ". Therefore, if we translate the given sentence, <span>ab and cd are parallel, into the Mathematical terms, we can write it as:
</span>
ab ll cd (Option D)

Where ab = line
cd = line

Furthermore, the lines ab and cd are coplanar because they form the plane. In other words, you can say that the lines ab and cd lie on the same plane. (Option F)

Hence the correct answers are:
(D) ab ll cd 
(F) ab and cd are coplanar

balandron [24]

The population of Saya islands after 4 months will be 8,100 people.

It is given in the question that:-

Initial population of Saya island = 100 people

The population of the Saya island tripled every month

We have to find the population of the island after 4 months.

The population of Saya island after 1 month = 100*3 = 300 people.

The population of Saya island after 2 months = 300*3 = 900 people.

The population of Saya island after 3rd months = 900*3 = 2,700 people.

The population of Saya island after 4th months = 2700*3 = 8,100 people.
