Step 1:

first let us convert the two decimals into fractions.

0.36=36/100 (since there are two digits after decimal point we divide by 100)

2.4=24/10 (since there are one digit after decimal point we divide by 10)

now we can multiply the fractions

\frac{36}{100}×\frac{24}{10}

multiplying numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:

\frac{36*24}{100*10}

=\frac{864}{1000}

Now we can convert this back to decimal

864/1000=0.864, moving decimal three digits to the left since we have three zeros in the denominator that is 1000.

Answer=0.864

Which of the ordered pairs in the form (x, y) is a solution of this equation? 5x-y/3 = 13 (2, -9), (3, -6)
zalisa [80]
C. The first is a solution, but the second is not.

5x - y/3 = 13 ; (2,-9)
substitute the letters:
5(2) - (-9/3) = 13 
10 - (-3) = 13 : note that deducting a number with a negative sign turns both sign as positive.
10 + 3 = 13 ;
13 = 13

5x - y/3 = 13 ; (3,-6)
5(3) - (-6/3) = 13
15 - (-2) = 13
15 + 2 = 13
17 = 13 not equal. not a solution

A poster is 15 inches wide by 24 inches tall. A smaller version of the same poster is created using a scale factor of 2/3. What
Tamiku [17]

The area of the small poster is 160 inches square

<h3>How to determine the area</h3>

From the information given, we have the poster to take the form of a rectangle

The formula for area of a rectangle is;

Area = length × width

For the smaller poster created using a scale of factor 2/3

Length = 2/ 3 × 24

Length = 16 inches

Width = 2/ 3 × 15

Width = 10 inches

Substitute into the formula

Area = 16 × 10

Area = 160 inches square

Thus, the area of the small poster is 160 inches square

A nest if ants initially contains 500 individuals. The population is increasing by 12% each week. How many ants will there be af
allochka39001 [22]
Based on the given values above, here is the solution to find if how many ants there will be after 10 weeks and 20 weeks.
Since the population increases by 12%. we need to get 12% of the population every week.
500 x .12 = 60.
1st week = 560
2nd week = 627.2
3rd week = 702. 46
4th week = 786.76
5th week = 881. 17
6th week = 986.91
7th week= 1,105.34
8th week= 1,237.98
9th week= 1, 386.54
10th week = 1, 552.92
11th week = 1,739.27
12th week = 1,947.98
13th week= 2,181.74
14th week=2, 443.55
15th week = 2,736.76
16th week = 3, 065. 17
17th week = 3,432.99
18th week= 3,844.95
19th week= 4,306.34
20th week = 4,823.10
Therefore, after 10 weeks, there will be 1,553 ants and after 20 weeks, there will be 4,823 ants.

What is the absolute value of -4-√2i
rodikova [14]
For x +iy  absolute value =  √(x² + y²)

Absolute value of  -4-√2i = -4-i√2,  comparing x = -4, y= -√2
<span>         
Absolute value = </span>√( (-4)² + (-√2)²),        
             
                    (-4)² = (-4)*(-4) = 16,  (-√2)² = -√2 * -√2 = 2
<span> 
                         = </span><span>√( (-4)² + (-√2)²)
</span><span>
                         </span>= √(16 + 4) = √20

√20 = √(4*5) = √4 * √5 = 2√5

Absolute value = <span>2√5</span>
