So she has 5/6 and 1/5. and they need to be split by 1/8 so do 5/6 divided by 1/5 and then do 4 1/6 divided by 1/8 to get

Answer: Weight of the clay in each portion is given by

\frac{1}{12}\text{ pounds }

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Weight of modelling clay is given by

\frac{5}{6}\text{ pounds}

Part of clay used to make decorative magnets is given by

\frac{1}{5}

Remaining part of clay is given by

1-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{5-1}{5}=\frac{4}{5}

So, Remaining part of clay is divided into 8 equal parts so,

Weight of each clay is given by

\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{5}{6}\times \frac{1}{8}\\\\=\frac{1}{12}\text{ pounds }

So, weight of the clay in each portion is given by

\frac{1}{12}\text{ pounds }

Please help me solve these problems

Will do first question of each concept only because the rest of the questions are the same concept (the same few repeat but whatever).

1. <em>Total angle = (n - 2) * 180 --> 4 * 180 = 360°</em>

<em>70 + 130 + 120 + θ = 360</em> --> 320 + θ = 360 --> θ = 40

4. Total angle =<em> (10 - 2) * 180</em> --> 8 * 180 = <em>1440</em>

<em>1440/10</em> = 144°

6. Interior: (n - 2) * 180 --> 10 * 180 = 1800

Exterior: 12 * 180 = 2160 --> 2160 - 1800 = 360

9. (n - 2) * 180 --> 3 * 180 = 540

90 + 90 + 150 + 160 + θ = 540 --> 490 + θ = 540 --> θ = 50

13. Interior: (n - 2) * 180 --> 2 * 180 = 360

Exterior: n * 180 - (n - 2) * 180 --> 180n - 180n + 360 --> 360 (always the same)

16. 7r + 4r + 8r + 5r = 360 --> 24r = 360 --> r = 15

Select the solution(s) of log2x=1−log(x+4).
mart [117]

Step-by-step explanation:

log2x = 1 - log(x+4)

log2x = log10 - log(x+4)

log2x = log[10/(x+4)]

2x = 10/(x+4)

2x(x+4) = 10

2x² + 8x - 10 = 0

÷2 both sides of equation

x² + 4x - 5 = 0

(x+5)(x-1) = 0

x = -5, 1

x isn't be -5 because logA, A need to be > 0

So, x value is 1
