Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

10 hours           x hours

-------------- = -------------

15 logs            9 logs

Using cross products

90 = 15x

Divide by 15

90/15 = 15x/15

6 = x

6 hours

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Jovie has maintained the fire burning with 15 logs for 10 hours.

● 15 => 10

Let's find how many hours do 9 logs keep the fire burning.

Let x be that time

● 9 => x

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● 15 => 10

● 9 => x

● 15 * x = 9×10

● 15x = 90

● x = 90/15

● x = 6

So the time that the fire will keep burning is 6 hours.

An arrow is launched upward with a velocity of
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity of the arrow when it was launched upwards is 320 feet per second. The height of the platform from which it was launched is 50 ft

This means that the arrow is already 50 feets from the ground before moving upwards.

The height that it attains on moving from 50 feets will be determined by Newton's formula of motion.

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

u = initial velocity = 320 feet per second.

1 feet per second = 0.305 meters per second

320 feet per second = 320× 0.305

= 97.6 feets per second

a = acceleration due to gravity =

- 32.17405 feet/second^2 because the arrow is moving upwards)

s =maximum height of the arrow

v = final velocity = 0 feet/second

Substituting into the equation,

0^2 = 97.6^2 + 2×- 32.17405 × s

0 = 9525.76 - 64.3481s

64.3481s = 9525.76

s = 9525.76/64.3481 = 148.03 feets

Total height from the ground would be

148.03 + 50 = 198.03 feets

What  is 7 x 1,829 in expanded form
Hoochie [10]
The answer:  7 * 1,829 =  " 12,803 " .
______________
<span>The following is the explanation—"in expanded form" — (as per the specfic instructions— within this very question—as to how to get the answer:
</span>____________________
Given:  7 * 1,829 = ?  ;   Find the solution; using "expanded form" :
____________
  (7 * 9 = 63 ) ; +

    (7 *20 = 140) ;  +

    (7 * 800 = 5,600) ; +
___________________________________________
    (7 * 1,000 = 7,000)  ; 
___________________________________________
Now, add the the values together to solve the problem:
___________________________________________
       →   7 * 1,829 = 63 + 140 + 5,600 + 7,000  ;
                           { =  203 + 5,600 + 7,000 } ;
                           { =  5,803  +  7,000 }  ;
                             =  12,803 ; which is the answer.
________________________________________________
Alternately, write out the steps as follows—using "expanded form":
________________________________________________
→ 7 * 1,829 = ?
________________________________________________
               →  7 * 1,829   =  (7*9) + (7*20) + (7*800) + (1,000) ; 
________________________________________________
     →   7 * 1,829  =   63 + 140 + 5,600 + 1,000 ;
                            { =  203 + 5,600 + 7,000 } ;
                            { =  5,803  +  7,000 }  ;
                             =  12,803 ;  which is the answer.
____
   → {Now, is our obtained answer:  "12,803" ;  the "correct answer"—to the problem:  " 7 * 1,829 " ;} ??

   → Let us check:   {Note:  " 7 * 1,829 " ;  is the same as:  ↔ " 1,829 * 7 " .}.

→  Using a calculator, does:  "7 * 1829 = ? 12,803" ?? ; Yes! ;
 →  &, for that matter; does:  " 1829 * 7 =? 12,803" ?? ;  Yes! .
_______
Furthermore, let us check, using the "traditional format" ; 
 →  Does:  "1,829 * 7 =?  12,803 ?? " ; 
________
{NB:  We are multiplying 2 (TWO) numbers together; & 1 (ONE) of these 2 [TWO] numbers is a "1-digit" ["single-digit"] number; & the "OTHER" multiplicand is a "multiple-digit" [specifically, a"4-digit"] number.}.
______
NB:  Yes; using a calculator is sufficient.  Below, I simply provide an alternate method to confirm whether our "obtained value" is correct.
_____
  →  Does:  "7 * 1,289 = ?  12,803" ?? ;
  →  Using the "traditional method"; let us check;  as follows:
_____
               ₅  ₂ ₆  
       →    1, 829 
  <span>      <u>     *        7         </u>                                                                </span>
             12   8 03 ;  
_____
So;  does:  "12,803 =? 12,803" ?? ;  YES!  
  → This "traditional method" shows that:  "7 * 1,829" ;  does, in fact, equal:  "12,803".
_____
{NB:   Explanation of the steps used in solving the aforementioned problem using the "traditional method"—just for clarification and confirmation} :
_____
→Start with:  "7*9= 63" ;  Write down the "3" & 'carry over' the "6" ; {Note the small-sized digit, "6"; written on top of the "2"; {commonly done—to keep track);

→Then;  "7*2 = 14" ; then add the "small digit 6"; to the "14" ; →"14+6 =20" ;
Write down the "0" ; & 'carry over' the "2" ; {Note the "small-sized digit, "2"; written over the "8"; (commonly done—to keep track);

→ Then; "7*8 = 56" ;  then add the "small digit 2"; to the "56"; → "56+2 = 58" ; Write down the "8" ; & 'carry over' the "5" ; {Note the "small-sized digit", "5" ; written over the "1" ; (commonly done—to keep track);

→Then;  "7*1 = 7" ; then add the "small digit 5"; to the "7" ; → "7+5 = 12" ; Write down the "12" ; in its entirety—since are no digits left [in the multiplicand, "1,829"] ; to "carry over". 
____
We get:  "12,803" ;  which =? "12,803" ?? ;→Yes!
____
I hope my explanation of how to solve "7 * 1,829" ; using the "expanded form" is helpful.  Also, i hope my explanation—albeit lengthy— of confirming that  [<em>our</em>]  "correctly obtained value"—which is:  "12,803"— is of some help.
