Answer:

<em>The sea cow can stay under water for 16 minutes.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

A hippopotamus can stay under water for 15 minutes.

A sea cow can stay under water y minutes and this is 11 minutes longer than one-third the time a hippopotamus can.

So, "11 minutes longer than one-third the time a hippopotamus can" means:  [\frac{1}{3}(15)+11] minutes

Thus, the equation will be:   y= \frac{1}{3}(15)+11

Now, solving the above equation, we will get.........

y= \frac{1}{3}(15)+11 \\ \\ y=5+11= 16

So, the sea cow can stay under water for 16 minutes.

Find All numbers whose absolute value is 2
Elanso [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute Value. Absolute value describes the distance of a number on the number line from 0 without considering which direction from zero the number lies. The absolute value of a number is never negative. The absolute value of 2 + 7 is 5.

Has two solutions x = a and x = -a because both numbers are at the distance a from 0. ... An absolute value equation has no solution if the absolute value expression equals a negative number since an absolute value can never be negative.

How do you solve (20.3×0.7)×7 with pemdas step by step
JulijaS [17]
TheProfessor35's answer is correct, but here's a step by step as you asked. PEMDAS stands from Parentheses Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction. So, in the problem, you first solve the part inside the parentheses. Are there exponents? No, so we move on. Anything need to be multiplied? Yes, 20.3 x 0.7. That gives us 14.21. Now, there is nothing left in the parentheses to be divided, added, or subtracted, so we move on to the outside. We multiply 14.21 by 7 and get 99.47.
