Answer:
18.2 feet^3 of water
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find 80% of the full capacity, which is 24. To do that, multiply 24 x 0.8, which is 19.2.
Now how much space to the fish take up? There are 8 fish, and each one takes up 1.5 cubic INCHES. 8 x 1.5 = 12 cubic inches, but we need cubic feet. Luckily, there are 12 inches in 1 foot so it'll be a clean and simple 1 foot. The "cubic" part only shows that we're measuring volume.
The 80% capacity - fish capacity = how much water is needed. That will be 19.2 - 1 = 18.2
That's it! Hopefully this helped!
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
If (1/5)^2 equals 1/25, then (1/5)^-2 should be the opposite.
(1/5)^-2 equals 25
Answer: -5/12
Step-by-step explanation: Before multiplying two fractions together by multiplying across their numerators and multiplying across their denominators, you should always try to cross-cancel as your first step.
So in this problem, the 2 and 8 cross-cancel to 1 and 4.
Also, watch out for your signs. In this problem we have a negative times a positive so we know that our answer will be negative.
Now we can multiply across the numerators and across the denominators.
So we have 5 · 1 which is 5 and 4 · 3 which is 12.
So our answer is -5/12.
Be very careful with your signs!
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(2x+5)-x=5(x+1) +15
distribute
-4x-10-x=5x+5+15
add common terms
-5x-10=5x+20
move common terms to the same sides
-30=10x
divide
x=-3
