There are three steps to this problem.

1. First, you'll need to find out what 1/4 of 40 is. An easy way to determine this is by simply dividing 40 by 1/4. (This will only work if you have to divide a fraction with a numerator of 1 by a whole number, though.) You'll end up with 10.

2. Then, you will have to determine what 4/5 of 10 is. You can't divide a number by a fraction, so you will have to multiply 10 by 4/5 instead. The picture shown is how you'll set it up.

3. Now you'll need to simply 40/5, to do this, you can simply divide 40 by 5.


Your answer will end up being 8.

5000 containers are stacked 20 wide and 50 long on a ship. How many containers high are they? Pls answer and give explanation, t
shutvik [7]

Answer:

5 containers high

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Given :

Width = 20 containers

Length = 50 containers

Total containers = 5000

Hence,

Total containers = width * length * height

5000 = 20 * 50 * height

5000 = 1000 * height

Height = 5000 / 1000

Height = 5 containers

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x = 1/2 (1 +\- i sqrt(23))

Discussion:

x \3x - 2 =   (x/3)*x - 2   =  (x^2)/3 - 2     (*)

1 \3x - 4   =  (1/3)x - 4                               (**)

(*) = (**)   =>

(x^2)/3 -2 = (1/3)x - 4        => multiply both sides by 3

x^2 - 6 = x - 12                 => subtract x from both sides

x^2 -x -6 = -12                   => add 12 to both sides

x^2-x +6  = 0

Using the quadratic formula gives:

x = 1/2 (1 +\- i sqrt(23))

Thank you,

MrB

Plz help for exam!!!<br> Solve for x and y.
ad-work [718]

Answer:

A x-198,y-99\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

since sin p/h you can say

perpendicular is 99

and hypotenuse is x

sin 30=99/x

x=198

and cos is b/h

base is y

and hypotenuse is x

cos 30=y/198

y-99\sqrt{3}
