A container holds 10 gallons of water. If 5/8 of a gallon is added to the container each hour, how many hours would it take to f

The answer is 16 hours. This is because 5/8 is equivalent to .625 so we divide the total capacity by that increment and we get 16.

Use the figure to find the measures of the numbered angles,

Galina-37 [17]

Given:

A figure in which a transversal line t intersect the two parallel lines a and b.

To find:

The measure of the numbered angles.

Solution:

If a transversal line intersect the two parallel lines, then

1. Corresponding angles are equal.

2. Alternate interior angles are equal.

3. Alternate exterior angles are equal.

Now,

$m\angle 1+99^\circ=180^\circ$ (Linear pair)

$m\angle 1=180^\circ-99^\circ$

$m\angle 1=81^\circ$

$m\angle 2=99^\circ$ (Vertically opposite angles)

$m\angle 3=\angle 1=81^\circ$ (Vertically opposite angles)

$m\angle 4=99^\circ$ (Corresponding angles)

$m\angle 5=\angle 3=81^\circ$ (Alternate interior angles)

$m\angle 6=99^\circ$ (Alternate exterior angles)

$m\angle 7=\angle 3=81^\circ$ (Corresponding angles)

Therefore, $\angle 1=81^\circ, \angle 2=99^\circ,\angle 3=81^\circ, \angle 4=99^\circ,\angle 5=81^\circ, \angle 6=99^\circ,\angle 7=81^\circ$ .

Determine the factors of 5x2 + 29x _ 6

Andre45 [30]

The answer is (x + 6)(5x - 1).

5x² + 29x - 6 = 5x² + 30x - x - 6 =
= (5x · x + 5x · 6) - (x + 6) =
= 5x(x + 6) - 1(x + 6) =
= (x + 6)(5x - 1)

Simplify ten to the eighth divided by ten to the negative third.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

$10^{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A statement is given i.e. "ten to the eighth divided by ten to the negative third."

It means that 10 to power 8 divided by 10 to the power -3.

Mathematically,

$\dfrac{10^8}{10^{-3}}$

We know that, $\dfrac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$

Here, x = 10, a = 8 and b = -3

So,

$\dfrac{10^8}{10^{-3}}=10^{8-(-3)}\\\\=10^{8+3}\\\\=10^{11}$

So, the answer is $10^{11}$
