Answer:

Option D. 5 EE 6 ÷ 6.6 EE 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Area of land purchased = 6.6×10^4 square miles

Cost = $ 5×10^6

To determine the key strokes on a calculator which will give the cost the

United States paid for each square mile of Florida, let us calculate cost of 1 square mile.

This can be obtained as follow:

6.6×10^4 sq mile = $ 5×10^6

Therefore,

1 sq mile = $ 5×10^6 ÷ 6.6×10^4

In calculator, the key strokes will be:

5 EE 6 ÷ 6.6 EE 4

Twice as many students are in the chess club as in the fencing club.The number of students in the fencing club is one fifth the

jekas [21]

Answer:

28 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of students in cooking club = x

Number of students in fencing club = 1/5 x

Number of students in chess club = 2(1/5)x

Since, There are 42 more students in the cooking club than in the chess club

Then ;

Number of students in chess club = Number of students in cooking club - 42

2(1/5)x = x - 42

(2/5)x - x = - 42

-0.6x = - 42

x = 42 / 0.6

x = 70

Hence, number of students in chess club :

(2/5) * 70 = 28

-15.6 = -3.9r<br> please include an explanation of how you got your answer :) thanks

Mumz [18]

Here is the equation:

$-15.6 = -3.9r$

Since both decimals are negative, the answer will be positive.

Negative times Negative = Positive

Divide both sides by -3.9 to leave the variable alone:

$-15.6 \div -3.9 = -3.9r \div -3.9 \\ 4 = r$

r is equal to 4 → r = 4

A pilot flew a 400 mile flight in 2.5 hours flying into the wind. Flying the same rate and with the same wind speed the return t

eduard

Answer: 20 mph

Explanation:

Speed is a physical quantity which is equal to the ratio between the distance covered (d) and the time taken (t):

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

In the first part of the problem, the plane flew a distance of d=400 mi in a time of t=2.5 h. The speed of the plane in this case was the difference between the proper speed of the plane, v, and the speed of the wind, w, since the plane flew opposite to the wind. So we can write:

$v-w=\frac{400mi}{2.5h}=160 mph$ (1)
