Let x be the number of red fish
3:5 = x:20
3/5 = x/20

5x = 60
x =12

How many moles are in a sample of 3.01 x 10^18 formula units of sodium hydroxide (NaOH)?
Lunna [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula to find the number of moles. As ,

:\implies n = No. of particles/ N_A

:\implies n = 3.01× 10¹⁸/6.022 × 10²³

:\implies n = 1/2 / 10⁵

<h3>Hence the number of particles is 1/2 / 10⁵ </h3>

What is the scale factor from L to S?
MariettaO [177]

Answer: While I don’t have the picture to actually know the answer I will explain how to get it.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If the shapes are on a grid count the amount of grid squares that are located between each end point of the shape. If it’s not on a grid use a ruler to measure the side lengths. You will need to find out the side amounts for both shapes L and S.

2. From there if the L shape is SMALLER than the S shape, then take the S shape’s sides and divide it by the L shape’s sides, and whatever number you get from each of your division problems will be your scale factor. BUT If the L shape is BIGGER than the S shape then easiest way to find out your scale factor is to take the last scale factor you got and convert it into a fraction. For example, if you got 3 then it would be 1/3. Hope this helped!

Suppose that the cost of drilling x feet for an oil well is C=f(x) dollars. a) What are the units of f'(x)? b) In practical term
antiseptic1488 [7]
A. The term "units" refers to the measurements in the original question or problem. When looking at the question, the units we are measuring are dollars/feet. 
B. In this case, the f'(x) means we are looking for the cost (in dollars) to drill the next foot down. 
C. Since the cost increases the more feet we drill down, the sign of f'(x) is positive.
