Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
3x=x-12
plug in 3 for x
3(3)=(3)-12
9=-9
Answer: 18/5 hours, or 3.6 hours
=================================================
Work Shown:
x = amount of time it takes Blake to do the job by himself
y = amount of time it takes Ned to do the job by himself
z = time it takes if they worked together
In this case,
x = 9 and y = 6
Use those values to find z.
Answer:
131.95yd squared
Step-by-step explanation:
A=2πrh+ 2 r(2)=2*π*3*4+2*π*3(2)~131.94689yd(2)
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
50 degrees and (10x-40) degrees are alternate interior angles and are, as such, equal. Thus, 50=10x-40, or 90 = 10x, or x = 9.
<span>D) 9.0 x 10^10 km
This is more an exercise in handling scientific notation than anything else. Since we have the distance that light travels in 1 second and we want to calculate how far it travels in 5 minutes, we must first calculate how many seconds are in 5 minutes. Simply multiplying 5 by 60 gives us 300 seconds. Now we need to multiply 300 by 3.0x10^8 km. So
300 * 3.0x10^8 = ?
We could first convert 300 into scientific notion, but it's easier to just leave it along and assume that it's 300 x 10^0. So 300 times 3 is 900. And since 0 plus 8 is 8, we have as the answer:
900 x 10^8
But we're not done. The significand has to be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. So let's divide 900 by 100 and add 2 to the exponent. So we get
9 x 10^10
Finally, since our data had 2 significant figures, our result should have that as well. So let's add the 2nd digit getting:
9.0 x 10^10
So we know that light travels 9.0x10^10 km in 5 minutes, and that answer matches option "D" from the available choices.</span>
