Answer: 1/40 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

1 orange weighs 1/5 pound

since if has been cut into 8 slices, then 1 out of those slices is 1/8

Let x = weigh of 1/8 slices.

We can solve this using proportion

1/5 pounds = 1 orange

x = 1/8 orange

Lets cross multiply

x = 1/5 × 1/8

x = 1/40 pound.

Therefore each slice weigh 1/40 pound

Each angle is bisected by the ray. Solve for x please!!
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

The Bisector Angle Theorem basically states that if a bisector cuts the middle of an angle, the two angles that it creates will be equal to each other.

Therefore:

#7 -> x=38

#8 -> x=144

#9 -> 2x=84 -> x=42

#10 -> x+3=30 -> x=27

A corn field has an area of 28.6 acres. It requires about 15,000,000 gallons of water. About how many gallons of water per acre
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

500,000

Step-by-step explanation:

so here's what's up, because it says about we can round 28.6 acres up to about 30. and there is 15,000,000 water every time. its a rather simple question. because all of the water needs to be divided equally, we must divide 15,000,000 by 30. and that makes a total of 500,000. so your answer is 500,000. but be carful because sometimes you must do the opposite.
