Answer:

simplify 2/5

equation at the end of step 1:

(0-2/5)^3

step 2:

2.1

Negative number raised to an odd power is negative  

To show this we begin with (-7)5 ,a negative number raised to an odd exponent:

(-7)5 can be written as (-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)

Now, using the rule that says minus times minus is plus, (-7)5 can be written as (49)•(49)•(-7) which is a negative number.  

We showed that (-7)5 is a negative number  

Using the same arguments as above, replacing (-7) by any negative number, and replacing the exponent 5 by any odd exponent, we proved which had to be proved

final result:-2^3/5^3=-0.06400

2 Kenedi has a piece of ribbon that measures
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The length of each ribbon is 1.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that:

Kenedi has a piece of ribbon that measures 24 inches long. She cuts the ribbon into 15 equal pieces to attach to her dance costume

Hence, the expression that can be used to show how to calculate the length of each piece of ribbon is given as:

24 inches ÷ 15 pieces

= 24 ÷ 15

= 1.6 inches

Therefore, the length of each ribbon is 1.6 inches

Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a cylinder. Container A has a diameter of 12 feet a
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The student needs to check all algebraic and mathmatical calculations for errors and typos.  I'm old and have been prone to making mistakes.

Cylinder A DIAMETER 12 ft and Height 13 ft

Cylinder B DIAMETER 10 ft and Height 16 ft

After pumping How much water remains in cylinder A

Volume of a cylinder  =  π(radius)²h is the normal form since they provided the diameter I will use     Volume of a cylinder  =  π(diameter/2)²h

Water remaining in A = Volume of A  - Volume of B   =  

VolA  - VolB  =  π(D for A/2)²H of A  -   π(D for B/2)²H of B

             writing if a little more condensed

VolA  - VolB  =  π(D for A/2)²H of A  -   π(D for B/2)²H of B

    Va - Vb    =   π(Da/2)²Ha  -   π(Db/2)²Hb

                     =  π [(Da²/2²)Ha - (Db²/2²)Hb]      factored out the π

                     =  π/4 [ Da²Ha  - Db²Hb]              factored out the (1/2)²

             I can't think of any other algebraic steps

Va - Vb = Water Remaining in Container A  =  π/4 [ Da²Ha  - Db²Hb]            

            =  π/4 [ (12²)(13)  - (10²)(16)]

            =  π/4 [ (144)(13)  - (100)(16)]

            =  π/4 [ 1872 - 1600 ]

            =  π/4 [272]

            =  π [ 272/4 ]  

            =  π [ 136 / 2]

            =  π [ 68 ]

            =  π (68)

            =  213.6  ft³             rounded to the nearest tenth

I checking my answer by using  V = πr²h         r = d/2

           Va - Vb = π [ra²ha - rb²hb]

                         = π [6²(13)  - 5²(16)]

                         = π [(36)(13) - (25)(16)]

                         = π [ 468 - 400]

                         = 68 π

                         = 213.6 ft³         I got the same answer

       

            =  π

One pipe can fill a tank in 20 minutes. A second pipe can fill the tank in 30 minutes. If the tank is empty, how long would be r
ioda
(It might also have helped immensely if you had been listening
when this was being explained in class.)

The first pipe fills 1/20 of the tank each minute.
The second pipe fills 1/30 of the tank each minute.

Operating together, the two pipes fill ( 1/20 + 1/30 ) of the tank each minute.

In order to add these fractions (or any fractions), you need a common denominator.
For these particular ones, ' 60 ' is a good choice.

( 1/20 + 1/30 ) = ( 3/60 + 2/60) = 5/60 = 1/12

The rate of work is 1/12 tankful per minute .

The most sensible choice for the time is 12 minutes.

R x T = W

( 1/12 tankful per minute ) x ( 12 minutes ) = 1 full tank
