$\frac{5}{a} +3= \frac{3}{a} -2$
$\frac{5}{a} - \frac{3}{a} =-2-3$
$\frac{2}{a} =-5$
2=-5a
a=- $\frac{2}{5}$

144 divided by 8 is 18 what is it in distributive property

OLga [1]

It is (1*8) + (10+8) which equals 144 by dividing it would be 144 divided by (1*8) which will give u 18. You can also do it the opposite way. Hope it helps :)

Carissa also has a sink that is shaped like a half-sphere. The sink has a volume of 3000

defon

Answer:

a) 80
b) 56

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Calculate the volume of the the cup using volume of cylinder equation: $V = \pi r^{2} h$

Where V = Volume, r=radius, and h=height. Your answer should be in cubic inches ( $in^3$ ).
You're given diameter, so use equation $d/2 = r$ to find radius.
Substituting these equations will give you: $V = \pi (d/2)^2 h$
However, the given volume of the sink is 3000 $\pi$ , meaning that you should modify your results to match this value. Do not substitute $\pi$ for 3.14..., leave it as a symbolic value. Your final V of the cup should = 37.5 $\pi$
Divide the volume of the sink by the volume of the cup. This number will be the amount of cups needed to empty it. In equation form:
$Vsink / V cup =$ # of cups.
Note the the $\pi$ will cancel each other out, so there's not need to factor that in.
b) Repeat the steps above with the new d (diameter) value.
