Answer: There is 8 additive he can put in each can.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cans = 4

Part of a pint of special paint add to reduce mildew = $\dfrac{1}{2}$

We need to find the additive that he put in each can.

So, the number of additive would be

$4\div \dfrac{1}{2}\\\\=4\times 2\\\\=8$

Hence, there is 8 additive he can put in each can.

Half of pint = 1 cup / 8oz
8 ÷ 2=2
2 oz per bucket

Answer:

34%

Step-by-step explanation:

Dime = 10 cents, 10% of a dollar

Penny = 1 cent, 1% of a dollar

3 dimes = 30% of a dollar

4 pennies = 4% of a dollar

30% + 4% = 34%

Match each power of a power expression with its simplified expression.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

> $(4^6)^{-3}$ = $\frac{1}{4 ^ {18}}$

> $(4^{-3})^{-3}$ = $4 ^ 9$

> $(4^0)^{-9}$ = $4 ^0$

> $(-4^{-9})^2$ = $(-4) ^ {-18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to expand the powers of each of them:

> $(4^6)^{-3}$ = $4^{(6 * -3)}$

= $4 ^ {-18}$

$(4^6)^{-3}$ = $\frac{1}{4 ^ {18}}$

> $(4^{-3})^{-3}$ = $4 ^ {(-3 * -3)}$

$(4^{-3})^{-3}$ = $4 ^ 9$

> $(4^0)^{-9}$ = $4 ^ {(0 * -9)}$

$(4^0)^{-9}$ = $4 ^0$

> $(-4^{-9})^2$ = $-4 ^ {( -9 * 2)}$

$(-4^{-9})^2$ = $-4 ^ {-18}$

The perimeter of a rectangle is 250 inches. if the length is 4 times as big as the width, what is the length and width of the re

yarga [219]

The length and width of the rectangle are 7.90 inches and 31.6 inches respectively

It is given that,

Let the length of the rectangle = l

Let the width of the rectangle = w

The perimeter of the rectangle = 250 inches

l x w = 250 ....eq 1

Then,

Length is 4 times as big as width

4l = w

We need to find, the length and width of the rectangle

Putting the value of w in eqn 1

We get,

$4l^{2} = 250$

$l^{2} = 62.5$

$l = \sqrt{62.5}$

$l = 7.90$

Similarly, we can get,

w = 4l

w = 4 x 7.90

w = 31.6

Hence, the length and width of the rectangle are 7.90 inches and 31.6 inches respectively
