Answer:   c. elm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The circumference of the oak tree= 0.539 meters

=0.539\times100=53.9\text{ cm}   [∵ 1 m = 100 cm]             (1)

The circumference of the ash tree= 0.509 yards

=0.509\times3\text{ feet}   [∵ 1 yard = 3 feet]

=0.509\times3\times 30.48\text{ cm}  [∵ 1 foot = 30.48 cm]

=46.54296\approx46.54\text{ cm}        (2)

The circumference of the elm tree = 6281.70 millimeters

=\dfrac{6281.70}{10}=628.17\text{ cm}          (3)

The circumference of the poplar tree = 0.000385 miles

=0.000385 \times5280\text{ feet}   [∵ 1 mile = 5280 feet]

=0.000385 \times5280\times30.48\text{ feet}  [∵ 1 foot = 30.48 cm]

=61.959744\approx61.96\ \text{ cm}              (4)

From (1) , (2) , (3 ) and (4) it is clear that

46.54< 53.9 < 61.96 < 628.17

Hence, the elm tree has the greatest circumference.

Show your work. What is 93 divided by 3 using repeated subtraction.
tamaranim1 [39]
To use repeated subtraction, you could keep subtracting 3 until you reach 0.
So, we can do
93-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3=0
This has 31 -3s,
So 91/3 is 31.

Does anyone know this need help
madreJ [45]

Answer:

32 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance across the river is give as x and we are interested in finding the value of x.

Both the triangles are similar by AA Postulate.

Therefore,

20/x = 10/16 (by c.s.s.t.)

2/x = 1/16

x = 16*2

x = 32 m

How many solutions does this linear have y= 5x-1 -15x-3y=3?
musickatia [10]
-15x - 3y = 3

-15x - 3(5x-1) = 3 [input y]
-15x - 15x - 3 = 3 [distribute 3 over 5x and -1]
-30x - 3 = 3 [combine like terms]
-30x = 6 [add 3 to eliminate the negative]
x = \frac{6}{-30} [divide by -30 to get x alone]
x = \frac{1}{-5} [reduce the fraction]

Hopefully this is helpful enough to get you to your answer
