Answer:

Step 1

Because the number in front of the bracket is 1 and it is also affected by the negative sign(-),5 is supposed to be negative not positive because (negative by positive is negative)

And since the first step has an error in it,the remaining steps would also be wrong.

Jose left the White House and drove toward the recycling plant at an average speed of 40 km/h. Rob left some time later driving

Aleks04 [339]

Let $x$ represent Jose's drived distance and $y$ represent Rob's.
So what you need to do is to solve the equation:
$40x=48*5$
$40x=240$
$x=240/40=6$

So Jose drove for 6 hours before Rob caught him.

The density of mercury is 13.6 grams per cubic centimeter. Complete the steps for converting 13.6 g/cm^3 to kg/m^3

Mama L [17]

1 cubic meter = 100 cm * 100 cm * 100 cm = 1 x 10^6 cc

1 kilogram = 1,000 grams

13.6 g / cc

If we had a cubic meter of mercury, its mass would be (or it would "weigh") 13.6 * 1,000,000 = 13,600,000 grams or 13,600 kilograms.

And so its density would be 13,600 kg / cubic meter.
