6.5 - 1.3 = 5.2
5.2 metres = 520 centimeters
520/4 = 130 centimeters on each cushion

a chef uses 4 3/4 cups of broth for 10 servings of soup.how much broth is is one serving . let x represent amount. 4 3/4/10 =x/1

enyata [817]

Let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to "improper" and then proceed,

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
\stackrel{broth}{cups}&servings\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
4\frac{3}{4}&10\\\\
x&1
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\quad \stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{3}{4}}\quad }{x}=\cfrac{10}{1}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{4\cdot 4+3}{4}\quad }{x}=\cfrac{10}{1}$

$\bf \cfrac{\quad \stackrel{improper}{\frac{19}{4}}\quad }{x}=\cfrac{10}{1}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{19}{4}\quad }{\frac{x}{1}}=\cfrac{10}{1}\implies \cfrac{19}{4}\cdot \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{10}{1}\implies \cfrac{19}{4x}=\cfrac{10}{1}
\\\\\\
19=40x\implies \cfrac{19}{40}=x$

Advocard [28]

$x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n} \\ \\
3^{10}=59049 \\
3^{-10}=\frac{1}{3^{10}}=\frac{1}{59049} \\ \\
\boxed{3^{-10}=\frac{1}{59049}}$

A square has an area of 144 sq. units. how long is its perimeter?

Arada [10]

Formula for Area of a square:

$\boxed {\boxed {\text {Area = Length x Length}}}$

Given that the area is 144 unit²:

$\text {Length}^2 = 144$

$\text {Length} = \sqrt{144} = 12 \text { units}$

Formula for Perimeter of a square:

$\boxed {\boxed {\text {Perimeter = 4 x Length }}}$

$\text {Perimeter = } 4 \times 12 = 48 \text { units}$

$\boxed { \boxed { \text {Answer: The perimeter is 48 units.}}}$
