Answer:

8 chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to know the number of eggs produced by a single chicken in 24 hours.

Since 2 chickens produce 6 eggs in 24hours, this means 1 chicken will produce 3 eggs in 24 hours.

Now, we need 24 eggs to be produced. Since the time is the same 24hours, meaning time is constant, the number of chickens required to produce 24 eggs will be 24/3 = 8 chickens

Hence, we can say that 8 chickens will produce 24eggs in 24 hours

The sun burns 6 million tonnes of hydrogen a second. Calculate how many tonnes of hydrogen it burns a year (that's 365.25 days)
Illusion [34]
Your answer is 189,345,600,000,000 tons per year

There are 86,400 seconds in a day, and 365.25 days in a year. So 86,400*365.25= 31,557,600 seconds per year. Now if each second the sun burns 6 million tons we have to multiply that by the number of total seconds per year. So 31,557,600 * 6,000,000= 189,345,600,000,000 hydrogen tons per year.
Hope this helped :)

1)Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point shown and is perpendicular to the line shown.
dimulka [17.4K]
To find the equation for the line in slope-intercept form y= mx + b, perpendicular to the line shown and passing through (6, -6):

The slope of the blue line is the rise (change in y) divided by run (change in x)
Choosing two points on the line (0, -6) and (2,0)
Slope = (0 - (-6)) / (2 - 0) = 6 / 2 = 3
The slope of our perpendicular line will be the opposite inverse, so: 
m = -1/3
We have the point (6, -6) so we can solve for b
y = mx + b
-6 = (-1/3)*6 + b
-6 = -2 + b
b = -4
We know that m= (-1/3) and b= -4, so: 
y = (-1/3)x - 4

This is definitely the correct answer. None of the above answers describe the line that is perpendicular to the blue line and passes through (6, -6). Make sure you wrote the options down correctly.

Simplify, thank you in advance
Tems11 [23]

\bf \cfrac{3}{x+4}+\cfrac{2}{x^2-16}\implies \cfrac{3}{x+4}+\cfrac{2}{\stackrel{\textit{difference of squares}}{x^2-4^2}}\implies \cfrac{3}{x+4}+\cfrac{2}{(x-4)(x+4)}\\\\\\\stackrel{\textit{so our LCD will be }(x-4)(x+4)}{\cfrac{(x-4)3+(1)2}{(x-4)(x+4)}}\implies \cfrac{3x-12+2}{(x-4)(x+4)}\implies \cfrac{3x-10}{(x-4)(x+4)}

Tameka bought 50 cans of soda ( cola, grape, and orange) to serve at a party. She has 8 more colas than grape sodas, and 3 less
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Orange = 12

Grape = 15

Cola = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Turning this into equations you can give each soda a variable

Cola = C | Grape = G | Orange = R

Then you get:

8 + G = C

R + 3 = G

C + G + R = 50

We want to get a variable all by itself in an equation so first I'm going to put the second equation (R + 3 = G) in the first (8 + G = C) by replacing the G to get

8 + (R + 3) = C  Combine the variables 11 + R = C and put that new equation into the last equation

(11 + R) + G + R = 50    

Now plug our original second equation (R + 3 = G) into our third to get

(11 + R) + (R + 3) + R = 50    

Combine and get

14 + 3R = 50      Subtract over the 14

3R = 36              Divide by 3

Orange Sodas = 12

Our new 3rd Equation is now:   C + G + 12 = 50, subtract over 12 to get

C + G = 38

Plug either equation 1 or 2 into that one, I'll do 1

(8 + G) + G = 38

8 + 2G = 38

2G = 30

Grape Sodas = 15

Now our 3rd equation is C + 15 = 38, subtract over 15

Cola Sodas = 23

Orange = 12

Grape = 15

Cola = 23

12 + 15 + 23 = 50
