Answer:

243 trees were saved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recycling one metric ton (1000 kg) of corrugated cardboard will save number of trees = 17

Warehouse recycled 14327 kg of cardboard last year. So we have to find the number of trees saved.

To find the number of trees we will use the unitary method.

∵ Recycling 1000 kg of cardboard number of trees saved = 17

∴ Recycling 1 kg cardboard number of trees saved = \frac{17}{1000}

∴ 14327 kg cardboard will save the number of trees = \frac{17}{1000}\times 14327

= 243.559

≈ 243 trees

Therefore, 243 trees were saved.

1 kg = 0.001 metric tons..so 14327 kg = (14327 * 0.001) = 14.327 metric tons
and if 1 metric tons saves 17 trees....then 14.327 tons saves : 14.327 * 17 = 243.559 saved trees...and since u cant have 0.559 trees, u would round to 243 trees

Intersecting is where two lines cross at any angle.
Perpendicular means two lines cross at exactly a 90-degree angle
Parallel indicates that the two lines have the same slope and never cross.

Ben has 2 identical pizzas.
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Let the weight if a whole pizza be x grams

Then 1/4 of a pizza weighs x/4  grams and one eighth weighs x / 8.  The difference is 32 grams so we can make the following equation:-

x/4 - x/8  = 32
x / 8  = 32
Multiplying both sides by 8:-

x = 8*32 =  256 

Answer is 256 grams.

Im confused <br><br><br> khan academy 8th grade
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

hi! so the question is asking what h is when you input -18 for x, right?

inputing in this question means to substitute, meaning that in this equation, -18 will take the place of x!

  • let's see what the equation looks like now
  • h = 17 + \frac{-18}{6}
  • easy as that!

now let's do the math :)

  • because of PEMDAS, remember to do the fraction (dividing) first!
  • h = 17 + (-3)

we can change that to --> h = 17 - 3

h = 14

let me know if you're still confused!

Find the conjugate and product of<br><br>2-i5 ​
WITCHER [35]

Answer: 2+i5,\ 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Complex number is 2-i5

Its conjugate is obtained by changing the sign of the original number i.e. 2+i5

The product of the two numbers is

\Rightarrow (2-i5)(2+i5)=2^2-(5i)^2\quad \quad [(x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2]\\\\\Rightarrow (2-i5)(2+i5)=4-25i^2\\\\\Rightarrow (2-i5)(2+i5)=4+25=29

Everett is rolling a block with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 on it. Finley is drawing one disk from a basket of three disks:
ioda

Option A:

The probability that Everett and Finley end up with an even number and a blue disk is \frac{1}{6}.

Solution:

Given data:

Everett is rolling a block with numbers = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Finley is drawing one disk from basket with colors = {blue, red, yellow}

Total number of numbers = 6

Total number of colors = 3

$\text { Probability }=\frac{\text {Number of possible outcomes}}{\text {Total number of outcomes}}

$P\text{(Even number)} =\frac{3}{6}$

$P\text{(Blue disk)} =\frac{1}{3}$

$P\text{(Even number and Blue disk)} =\frac{3}{6}\times\frac{1}{3}$

                                                  $=\frac{3}{18}

Divide numerator and denominator by the common factor 3.

                                                  $=\frac{3\div3}{18\div3}

                                                  $=\frac{1}{6}

Option A is the correct answer.

Hence the probability that Everett and Finley end up with an even number and a blue disk is \frac{1}{6}.
