Answer:

500 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

By proportion :-

15% of the tigers weight = 75 pounds

1% .................................... = 75/15 pounds

100% .................................. = 75*100 / 15 pounds

= 7500 / 15

= 500 pounds

$\frac{x {}^{0}y {}^{ - 3} }{x {}^{2}y {}^{ - 1} } \\ = \frac{1y {}^{ - 3} }{ {x}^{2}y {}^{ - 1} } \\ = \frac{1 \times 1}{ {x}^{2} y {}^{2} } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{ {x}^{2}y {}^{2} }$

Step by Step Explanation:

Evaluate the power: Any non-zero expression raised to the power of 0 equals 1
Simplify: Simplify the expression
Calculate the product: Any expression multiplied by 1 remains the same.

Answer:

5Step-by-step explanation:

If you use the distance formula you can solve it pretty easily. The distance formula is:

d = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2} \\$

The two points you want are A and D. A is (-1, -4) and D is (3, -1). Plug that into the formula...

d = $\sqrt{(3 - (-1))^2 + (-1 - (-4))^2}$

d = $\sqrt{4^2 + 3^2}$

d = $\sqrt{16 + 9}$

d = $\sqrt{25}$

I can solve it in a different way if you want me to.

An angle measures 7/9pi radians. What is the degree measure of the angle?

slamgirl [31]

2pirad=360 deg
so
xrad/2pi=ydeg/360
times both sides by 360 to solve for ydeg
180xrad/pi=ydeg
so

7/9pi rad
180(7/9pi)/pi=ydeg
140=ydeg

140 deg
