The smiths previously lived in a house that had 1450 sq ft of space. The sq ft of their new home is 3800 sq ft. What is the perc

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

162.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Size of previous living space = 1450 sq ft

Size of new living space = 3800 sq ft

% increase in living space ;

Increase in living space = 3800 - 1450 = 2350 sq feet

(Increase / previous size) * 100%

(2350 / 1450) * 100%

1.6206 * 100%

= 162.06%

= 162.1%

What is the prime factorization of 240? Question options: 24 · 3 · 7 23 · 3 · 5 24 · 5 23 · 5 · 7 24 · 3 · 5

timama [110]

The prime factorization of 240 is $2^{4}$ . 3 . 5 ⇒ last answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime number is the number that has only 2 factors 1 and itself

{2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , ............}

In prime factorization we use only the prime numbers

Ex: The factors of 15 are 1 , 3 , 5 , 15,

Then the prime factors of 15 are 3 and 5 only because they are

prime numbers

So to find the prime factors of a number do that

1. Factorize the number by divide it using prime numbers only

2. Write the number as a product of its prime factors

∵ 240 divisible by first prime number 2

∴ 240 ÷ 2 = 120

∵ 120 ÷ 2 = 60

∵ 60 ÷ 2 = 30

∵ 30 ÷ 2 = 15

- We divided the number by 2 for 4 times

∴ $2^{4}$ is a prime factor of 240

∵ 15 is divisible by prime number 3

∴ 15 ÷ 3 = 5

∴ 3 is a prime factor of 240

∵ 5 is divisible by prime number 5

∴ 5 ÷ 5 = 1

∴ 5 is a prime factor of 240

∴ The prime factors of 240 are $2^{4}$ , 3 , 5

The prime factorization of 240 is $2^{4}$ . 3 . 5

A househusband is cooking beef stew for his family in a pan that is (a) uncovered, (b) covered with a light lid, and (c) covered

raketka [301]

Answer:

Cooking will be shortest when the househusband covers the beef stew with the heavy lid.

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation for this is that water boils at 100°C at normal atmospheric pressure & it remains at that temperature until all the water evaporates as steam; the temperature can then go higher in steam form.

So, if he leaves the pan uncovered the pressure above the beef stew will be the atmospheric pressure and the temperature of the stew will not pass the 100°C mark and the food cooks at 100°C.

If he places a light lid on top, the pressure will build up & the temperature at which water remains liquid is a bit higher, but eventually the steam will push the lid to escape thereby releasing pressure & reducing the temperature.

If he puts a heavy lid on the pan the pressure can build up the highest and the temperature of the water in the stew will stay the highest ensuring the fastest cooking.

Basically, the heavier the lid, greater the pressure in the pan. As the pressure gets greater, the saturation temperature at which water starts boiling will be higher. And higher boiling temperatures mean shorter cooking times.
