Answer:

B. 80 cm of chain weighs 2 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to choose the correct answer, we need to define the comparative relation between the length and weight of the chain. We will do this by performing the simple operation of division.

It is easier to divide the larger number by the smaller and that is what we will show here (although <em>you can do as you wish and still get the same result</em> - it's math!):

320 ÷ 8 = 40

The result we got is 40. This means that <u>the length of the chain is equal to the value of forty of its weights!</u> And this will be the operation we will perform in order to determine the right answer:

A) Does 2 (kg) multiplied by 40 equal 40 (cm)? No, therefore, it is incorrect.

B) Does 2 (kg) multiplied by 40 equal 80 (cm)? <u>Yes, this answer is correct!</u>

Just in case, we will perform this action with the rest of the possible choices:

C) 4 kg × 40 = 160 and NOT 80 cm.

D) 2 kg × 40 = 80 and NOT 160 cm.

The range of the sprinkler will be the area of a circle with a radius of 40 feet.

area of circle = \pi r^{2}

area of circle = \pi (40^{2})

area of circle = 1600\pi = 5026.55 ft^{2} approx.

PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!

Answer:

10 sides (decagon)

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the perimeter by adding up all the sides of a shape.

side + side + side + side... = perimeter

You know that <em>each</em> side is 4/5 centimeters. You also know that the perimeter is 8 centimeters.

<u>You can set up an equation like this:</u>

4/5 * number of sides = 8

<em>or you can write it in a simpler form as:</em>

4/5x=8

<u>Now solve it like a normal equation:</u>

5 * (4/5x) = (8) * 5

(4x) / 4=(40) / 4

x = 10

So, you know the shape has 10 sides that are 4/5 centimeters each.
