First, we need to see what 1/5 of a minute is.
60÷5=12
So, there's 3/4 of a gallon every 12 seconds. We need to multiply 3/4 by 5 to find every minute.
3/4×5=15/4=3 3/4
.But, you can tell that he multiplied 3/4 by 1/5, which is not right since you're suppose to do it by 5. But the answer is 3 1/2 gallon per minute.

Help plz i dont undertand
lora16 [44]

Answers:

  • x = 4
  • AB = 36
  • BC = 36
  • AC = 36

All three sides are 36 units long.

===========================================================

Explanation:

Triangle ABC is equilateral, so all three sides are the same length.

Pick any two of those sides, set them equal to each other, and solve for x

AB = BC

8x+4 = 11x-8

8x-11x = -8-4

-3x = -12

x = -12/(-3)

x = 4

Use this x value to find each side. We should get the same value (if not, then an error occurred in solving for x).

  • AB = 8x+4 = 8*4+4 = 32+4 = 36
  • BC = 11x-8 = 11*4-8 = 44-8 = 36
  • AC = 9x = 9*4 = 36

We get the same value for the three side lengths, so this confirms we have the correct x value.

Which of the following changes will always be true for an exothermic process?
Ivenika [448]
Given that I no not see any explanation in the previos answer, I think you can benefit of this.

Exothermic refers only to the fact that the reaction releases energy in the form of heat when occurs. So, the enthalpy is higher at start and lower and the end.

Seen in this way, you can deduct that the change in enthalpy is negative, which is what the third option says.

Write an equation for each sentence and then solve.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive numbers be 2n and 2n+2

The sum of these numbers in 2n + (2n+2).

Hence

2n + (2n+2) = 34

4n + 2 = 34

4n  = 32

n =8.
