The answer is 5/4 in

The initial length:
1 ft = 12 in
8 ft = 8 * 12 in
      = 96 in

The final length:
7 ft 10 3/4 in = 7 ft + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 7 * 12 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 84 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 94 in + 3/4 in

The cut if the initial length - final length:
96 in - 94 in - 3/4 in = 2 in - 3/4 in = 8/4 in - 3/4 in = 5/4 in

Galactic Rotation Speed. We are located about 27,000 light-years from the galactic center and we orbit the center about once eve
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

speed = 796142.197 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

solution

we consider here orbit around galactic center is circular so

circumference formula will be here

circumference C = 2πr   ........1

here we know r = 27000

so

circumference C = 2 π × 27000

C = 169560 light year

so

we travel 169560 light year in 230000000 years

so distance will be

distance = \frac{169560}{230000000}

distance = 0.00073721 light year/year

and we know 1 year = 8760 hours

so 1 light year = 9.46027 ×10^{12} km

so

sped of moving is

speed = 0.00073721 × 9.46027 × \frac{10^{12}}{8760}  km/hr

speed = 796142.197 km/hr

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

8 or 9

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you first need to take 4/5 of 400 (320).  Then, you can count by 75s for a bit

75students; 2chaperones

150; 4

225; 6

300; 8

now, you have 20 students left over...since one chaperone would watch about 37 kids, you can either divide the remaining kids up among the other chaperones, or you can add one more chaperone to watch the 20 kids.  i don't know what the teacher wants, so either 8 or 9 chaperones
