Answer:

24 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Malvin's age be x.

  • x / 2
  • x / 2 + 5 = 5x / 10  [ By taking the L.C.M.]
  • ( 5x / 10 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) = 5x / 30   [ Multiply with the reciprocal of 3 ]
  • ( 5x / 30 ) * 2 = 5x / 15

Now let's solve the equation,

5x / 15 = 8

       5x = 8 * 15

       5x = 120

         x = 120 / 5

         x = 24

Therefore, Malvin is 24 years old.

A conical-shaped umbrella has a radius of 0.4 m and a height of 0.45 m. Calculate the amount of fabric needed to manufacture thi
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The correct answer will be "0.756596 m²".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

The radius of an umbrella,

r = 0.4 m

The height of an umbrella,

h = 0.45 m

As we know,

The lateral surface of an umbrella will be:

⇒  \pi r\sqrt{r^2+h^2}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒  \pi \times 0.4\sqrt{(0.4)^2=(0.45)^2}

⇒  0.756596 \ m^2

So that the amount of fabric needed will be "0.756596 m²".

When dividing the polynomial using synthetic division, which of the following setup boxes would be used?
Galina-37 [17]

The setup boxes in the synthetic division are (b)

<h3>How to determine the setup boxes?</h3>

The dividend is given as:

x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6

The divisor is given as:

x - 2

Set the divisor to 0

x - 2 = 0

Solve for x

x = 2

Remove the variables in the dividend

1 + 4 + 1 - 6

Remove the arithmetic signs

1  4  1 - 6

So, the setup is:

2 | 1  4  1 - 6

Hence, the setup boxes are (b)

Todea what did one pencil say to another mathematics algebra order of operations answer
Serjik [45]
Part 1

6- \frac{18-3^2}{4+(2-3)} =6- \frac{18-9}{4+(-1)}  \\  \\ =6- \frac{9}{4-1} =6- \frac{9}{3} =6-3 \\  \\ =3



Part 2

7-8\div4(3^2-1)=7-8\div4(9-1) \\  \\ =7-8\div4(8)=7-8\div32=7- \frac{1}{2} \\  \\ =6  \frac{1}{2} = \frac{13}{2}



Part 3

2-2(2-5)^2+3^2=2-2(-3)^2+9 \\  \\ =2-2(9)+9=2-18+9=-7



Part 4

(5^2-9\cdot3)^2-11=(25-27)^2-11 \\  \\ =(-2)^2-11=4-11=-7



Part 5

[(2-3)^2-5]\cdot4=[(-1)^2-5]\cdot4 \\  \\ =(1-5)\cdot4=-4\cdot4=-16



Part 6

12-11\cdot2+16\div8=12-22+2 \\  \\ =-8



Part 7

-5+1\cdot3-(7-2^3)=-5+3-(7-8) \\  \\ =-2-(-1)=-2+1=-1



Part 8

8+2\cdot3-14\div7=8+6-2 \\  \\ =12



Part 9

(8-2)^2+\frac{1}{4}[4-3(6-10)]=6^2+\frac{1}{4}[4-3(-4)] \\  \\ =36+\frac{1}{4}[4-(-12)]=36+\frac{1}{4}(4+12)=36+\frac{1}{4}(16) \\  \\ =36+4=40



Part 10

7+(2-3^2)\cdot5=7+(2-9)\cdot5 \\  \\ =7+(-7)\cdot5=7+(-35)=7-35 \\  \\ =-28



Part 11

3-2[2^3+(-1)^3]=3-2[8+(-1)] \\  \\ =3-2(8-1)=3-2(7)=3-14 \\  \\ -11



Part 12

18+6\div3(2^2+5)=18+6\div3(4+5) \\  \\ =18+6\div3(9)=18+6\div27=18+ \frac{2}{9} \\  \\  =18 \frac{2}{9}
