Answer:

Bob the builder need 180 kg sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of concrete mixture is 480 kg. It is given that concrete is made by mixing cement, sand and gravel in the ratio 1:3:4.

Let the amount of cement, sand and gravel in concrete mixture be x, 3x, 4x respectively.

x+3x+4x=480

8x=480

Divide both sides by 8.

x=60

The amount of sand is 3x, so

3\times 60=180

Therefore bob the builder need 180 kg sand.

1x+3x+4x = 480

8x = 480

xdivide by 8

x=60

cement: 1x = 60kg

sand : 3x = 3*60 = 180kg

gravel : 4x = 4*60 = 240kg

Answer:

18) 4 * 10 ^ -10

19) t ^ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

18. When multiplying in scientific notation, just multiply the regular numbers together and add the exponents for the tens.

So it'll be 40 * 10^-11

However, the beginning number should have the decimal right after the 4, not any place after (for example, it's 3.056, not 30.56 or 3056.)

To fix this, move the decimal place forward one space from 40. to 4.0, and add 1 to the -11 power.

So the answer is now 4 * 10^-10

19. When dividing exponents, if the base number is the same, you can divide. (Basically, you can not divide x^2 and y^3 because x and y aren't the same)

Since in this case it's t, you can divide.

Dividing exponents is simple: just subtract them.

14 - 5 = 9

so the answer is t ^ 9

WILL AWARD BRAINIEST!! Question is in the attached image.

Answer:

Look down at explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

First off if it is true in inches you could use a ruler to measure the bottom it works if you are desperate a lot of the time. Also the bottom of the trapezoid is 6 meters. If you didn't know the perimeter you could split the trapezoid into a rectangle and a triangle. You just have to take off the irrelevant sides when you put it together. So you take the 2 meters from the top of the trapezoid and then the bottom of the triangle is 4, so just split up the trapezoid and find the perimeter of the triangle and rectangle.

Equations which are never true

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Equation of a Straight Line

2.2     Solve   2x-5y-5  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  2x-5y-5  = 0 and calculate its properties
