Answer: the elephant is twenty times as heavy as the tiger.

Step-by-step explanation: The weight of an African elephant is 6 × 10^6 grams; the weight of a tiger is 3 × 10^5 grams. How many times heavier is the elephant than the tiger?

2 times

20 times

200 times

2,000 times

The weight of the African elephant is 6 x 10^6 grams = 6,000,000 grams

The weight of the tiger is 3 x 10^5 grams = 300,000 grams

Ratio of the weight of the elephant to that of the tiger is 6,000,000 : 300,000 which on division gives:

= 6,000,000/300,000 = 20.

Therefore the elephant is 20 times as heavy as the tiger.

2 grams

6 x 106 = 636
3 x 105 = 315

315 x (2) = about 630

Sophie [7]

Answer:

She should take 112 steps west  

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the relation between the four directions

- North and South on the same line by in opposite directions

- East and West on the same line by in opposite directions

- East and West are perpendicular to the North and South

* Now lets study the situation i the problem

- Sally 100 steps due to South from the starting point

- Then she walk West when she gets the next clue

- The distance between her starting point and ending point is 150 steps

∵ The South is perpendicular to the West

- Lets consider her trip is a right angle triangle ABC, where AB

 her steps South and BC her steps West and AC the distance

 between her starting point and ending point

∵ AB = 100

∵ AC = 150

∵ m∠B = 90°

- By using Pythagoras theorem

∵ BC = √(AC² - AB²)

∴ BC = √(150² - 100²) = 50√5 = 111.8 steps

* She should take 112 steps west

<h3>Answer:</h3>

\huge{\boxed{n=-4}}

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

\begin{array}{cc}\begin{flushright}\text{Divide both sides of the equation by 3.}\end{flushright}&\begin{flushleft}-4n-9=7\end{flushleft}\\\begin{flushright}\text{Add 9 on both sides.}\end{flushright}&\begin{flushleft}-4n=16\end{flushleft}\\\begin{flushright}\text{Divide both sides by -4.}\end{flushrigh}&n=-4\end{array}

A. ( x + 5)<br><br>B. ( x - 5 )<br><br>C. ( x + 3 )<br><br>D. ( x - 3 )
Blababa [14]

Answer:

(x + 5) B. (x - 5) C. (x + 3) D. (x - 3) = = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculator performs basic and advanced operations with fractions, expressions with fractions combined with integers, decimals, and mixed numbers. It also shows detailed step-by-step information about the fraction calculation procedure. Solve problems with two, three, or more fractions and numbers in one expression.

Rules for expressions with fractions:

Fractions - use the slash “/” between the numerator and denominator, i.e., for five-hundredths, enter 5/100. If you are using mixed numbers, be sure to leave a single space between the whole and fraction part.

The slash separates the numerator (number above a fraction line) and denominator (number below).

Mixed numerals (mixed fractions or mixed numbers) write as non-zero integer separated by one space and fraction i.e., 1 2/3 (having the same sign). An example of a negative mixed fraction: -5 1/2.

Because slash is both signs for fraction line and division, we recommended use colon (:) as the operator of division fractions i.e., 1/2 : 3.

Decimals (decimal numbers) enter with a decimal point . and they are automatically converted to fractions - i.e. 1.45.

The colon : and slash / is the symbol of division. Can be used to divide mixed numbers 1 2/3 : 4 3/8 or can be used for write complex fractions i.e. 1/2 : 1/3.

An asterisk * or × is the symbol for multiplication.

Plus + is addition, minus sign - is subtraction and ()[] is mathematical parentheses.

The exponentiation/power symbol is ^ - for example: (7/8-4/5)^2 = (7/8-4/5)2
