Answer: The blue whale's weight is 150 times heavier than the narwhal's weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Weight of Blue whale = 3\times10^5\text{ pounds}

Weight of Narwhal = 2\times10^3\text{ pounds}

Number of times blue whale's weight  is heavier than the narwhal's weight = =\dfrac{\text{Weight of Blue whale}}{\text{Weight of Narwhal }}

=\dfrac{3\times10^5}{2\times10^3}\\\\=1.5\times10^{5-3}\ \ \ [\dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}]\\\\=1.5\times10^2\\\\=1.5\times100=150

Hence, the blue whale's weight is 150 times heavier than the narwhal's weight.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The will play the song at the same time by 4:12 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

here, we want to know the time both radio station will play the song after 3pm.

Mathematically to get this, we shall need to find the lcm of both 18 and 24. LCM stands for the lowest common multiple of both.

The lowest common multiple of both is 72.

This means that after 72 minutes, they will both play the song

So the time then would be;

72 + 3 = 4 : 12 pm

Answer:

320 ft²  (nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • height of fence post = 8 ft
  • diameter of fence post = 1 ft  ⇒  radius = 0.5 ft
  • total number of posts = 12
  • π = 3.14

Surface area of a cylinder = 2πr² + 2πrh

⇒ SA of one fence post = 2 · 3.14 · 0.5² + 2 · 3.14 · 0.5 · 8

                                       = 1.57 + 25.12

                                       = 26.69 ft²

As there are 12 fence posts,

Total paint needed = 12 × 26.69

                                = 320.28 ft²

                                = 320 ft² (nearest whole number)
