The correct answer is 110 cm

Explanation:

Fractions always include two values (one at the top and the other at the bottom) and they represent the proportion of something, for example, 1/2 of an apple means there is only half apple. Now, to calculate how much is 5/7 of 154 centimeters, simply divide the total number into the denominator (bottom number) and then multiply the result by the numerator (top number). This process is shown in detail below:

\frac{5}{7}  -  5 is the numerator and 7 is the denominator

5/7 of 154 cm

154 cm / 7 = 22

22 x 5 = 110 cm

Determine whether the given vectors are orthogonal, parallel, or neither. (a) a = 9, 6 , b = −4, 6 orthogonal parallel neither (
labwork [276]

Answer:

(a) Orthogonal, (b) Neither, (c) Parallel, d( Orthogonal

Step-by-step explanation:

a and b are parallel is a=kb

a and b if a dot b = 0

(a) a dot b = (9)(-4)+6(6)=-36+36=0

  a and b are orthogonal

(b) a dot b = 40-7-21=12

    a=kb -> there is no k value satisfying the equation

    a and b are neither parallel or orthogonal

(c) a dot b = -12-108-48=-168

    a=kb  -> k=-3/4 satisfies the equation

    a and b are parallel

(d) a dot b= 9-3-6=0

  a and b are orthogonal

The equation for the pH of a substance is pH = –log[H+], where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ions. Which equation models t
Zanzabum

Answer:  [H+] = 10^-7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the PH of the solution = 7.2

Using the formula pH = –log[H+]. To get the H+ concentration from the pH, raise both sides by the base of 10. Then we have

10^ -pH = H+. with pH of 7.2,

Thus the answer to this problem is

[H+] = 10^-7.2

A line passes through the points (1, 8) and (0, 3). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is y=mx+b.

In this case, you plug in 3 for b, because b represents the y-intercept and the y-intercept is (0,3).

To figure out the slope, the equation is y-y/x-x, so it would be 8-3/1-0, which leves us with 5.

M represents the slope so your answer is:

Y=5x+3

Hope this helps!
