Answer: The answer is 21.25 pounds.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the weight of Akoala is 20 pounds. Also, she is carrying her joey with her having weight 20 ounces. We need to find the combined weight of the adult Akoala and her joey in ounces.

For that, first we need to conver ounces to pounds.

We know

1~\textup{pound}=16~\textup{ounces}\\\\\Rightarrow 1~\textup{ounce}=\dfrac{1}{16}~\textup{pounds}\\\\\Rightarrow 20~\textup{ounces}=\dfrac{1}{16}\times 20=\dfrac{5}{4}=1.25~\textup{pounds.}

Therefore, the combined weight is given by

W=20+1.25=21.25~\textup{pounds.}

Thus, the answer is 21.25 pounds.

What is the term, coefficient, constant, and factor of 1/2(base1 + base2)h? (Formula used to find area of trapezoid)
vovangra [49]

Answer:

i. Term = \frac{b_{1}h }{2} + \frac{b_{2}h }{2}

ii. Coefficient = \frac{1}{2}

iii. Constant = \frac{1}{2}

iv. Factor = \frac{h}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral which has its base parallel to the opposite side. It's area can be determined by;

Area of trapezium = \frac{1}{2} (b_{1} + b_{2})h

Where b_{1} is the measure of length of its fist base,  b_{2} is the measure of its second base and h is its height.

Considering the given question,

Term = \frac{b_{1}h }{2} + \frac{b_{2}h }{2}

Coefficient = \frac{1}{2}

Constant = \frac{1}{2}

Factor = \frac{h}{2}

Which expression is equivalent to -3(4c-2) -2c
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

-3(4c-2) -2c = -14c+6

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the equivalent expression for -3(4c-2) -2c.

First we open the brackets as follows :

-3(4c-2) -2c

= -12c+6-2c

=-12c-2c+6

=-14c+6

So, the equivalent expression is -14c+6.

Solve for x. x/2+1= √3
podryga [215]
X=1.464102
Simplifies to: (1/2x)+1=1.732051

Step 1: Subtract 1 from both sides.
1/2x + 1 -1=1.732051-1
(1/2x)=0.732051

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 2
2*(1/2x) = (2) * (0.732051)
X=1.464102

Give the rate in miles per hour round to the nearest tenth Rachel jogs 20 feet in three seconds
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

4.5 miles per hour is her rate in miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to convert 20 ft per second to miles per hour

If she jogs 20 ft in 3 seconds , then in one second , she will jog 20/3 ft

So convert 20/3 ft/second to miles per hour

Mathematically;

1 mile = 5280 feet

So one feet = 1/5280 mile

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 second = 1/3600 hour

So, to go from miles/hour to ft/second ; we shall multiply by 1/5280 and divide by 1/3600

Hence; we have;

(20/3 * 1/5280)/1/3600

= 20/3 * 1/5280 * 3600/1

= 4.4545 which is 4.5 miles per hour
