Answer:
2.5 times
Step-by-step explanation:
To compare the two quantities, find a common denominator.
1/5 is 2/10 of sugar.
1/2 cup of flour is 5/10 of flour.
There is almost 3 times as much flour as sugar. 5/ 2 = 2.5. It is 2.5 times as much.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
25b * (3a² - 1) = 25b * 3a² - 25b * 1
= 75ba² - 25b
Distributive law upon subtraction:
a(x - y) = ax - ay
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
If all the figures are similar, we'll have to shrink them at the same rate as the rest.
The ratio here is 2/5. So,
2/5 = 6.4/16
2/5 = x/10
x=4
Answer:
5 x^2 y^ (-3) z = ?
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the volume of a rectangular prism is given by
V = l*w*h
V = 2x^2 * y^-2 * ?
We are given the volume
V =10x^4 y^-5 z
Set the two equal
10x^4 y^-5 z = 2x^2 * y^-2 * ?
Divide each side by 2x^2 y^-2
10x^4 y^-5 z /2x^2 y^-2 = 2x^2 * y^-2 * ?/2x^2 * y^-2
10x^4 y^-5 z/ 2x^2 y^-2 = ?
Simplifying
10/2 * x^4/x^2 y^-5/ y^-2 z = ?
We know that a^b/ a^c = a^(b-c)
5 x^ (4-2) y^(-5 - -2) z = ?
5 x^2 y^ (-5 +2) z = ?
5 x^2 y^ (-3) z = ?
