Explain how to find the difference -4/5-3/5

erastovalidia [21]

Hello There!

The denominators are already the same therefore you don't need to work on making them the same.
Simply just subtract the numerators:
-4 - 3 = -7
The answer is - 7/5

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

If a fire is burning a building and it takes 2 hours to put it out using 2000 gal./min., what minimum diameter cylindrical tank

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The minimum diameter of the cylindrical tank needed to store the quantity needed to put out the fire is approximately 58.415 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A gallon equals 0.134 cubic feet. First, we determine the amount of water ( $Q$ ), measured in cubic feet, needed to put out the fire under the assumption that water is consumed at constant rate:

$Q = \dot Q \cdot \Delta t$ (1)

Where:

$\dot Q$ - Volume rate, measured in feet per minute.

$\Delta t$ - Time, measured in minutes.

If we know that $\dot Q = 2000\,\frac{gal}{min}$ and $\Delta t = 120\,min$ , then the amount of water is:

$Q = \left(2000\,\frac{gal}{min} \right)\cdot (120\,min) \cdot \left(0.134\,\frac{ft^{3}}{gal} \right)$

$Q = 32160\,ft^{3}$

And the diameter of the cylindrical tank based on the capacity found above is determined by volume formula for a cylinder:

$Q = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}\cdot h$ (2)

Where:

$D$ - Diameter, measured in feet.

$h$ - Height, measured in feet.

If we know that $Q = 32160\,ft^{3}$ and $h = 12\,ft$ , then the minimum diameter is:

$D^{2} = \frac{4\cdot Q}{\pi\cdot h}$

$D = 2\cdot \sqrt{\frac{Q}{\pi\cdot h} }$

$D = 2\cdot \sqrt{\frac{32160\,ft^{3}}{\pi\cdot (12\,ft)} }$

$D \approx 58.415\,ft$

The minimum diameter of the cylindrical tank needed to store the quantity needed to put out the fire is approximately 58.415 feet.

A bird flies up and then down again, approximately following the

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

112.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum is achieved at vertex of parabola.

The x- coordinate of the vertex is determined by x = - b/(2a).

x = - 15/(-0.5*2) = 15

The maximum height is the corresponding y- coordinate

y = - 0.5(15²) + 15(15) = 112.5 ft

Answer: The customer should buy Giana’s jewelry box.

Step-by-step explanation:

The jewelry boxes are rectangular prisms, in order to find the box that would hold the most amount of jewelry we need to find the volumes of each box.

V= l.w.h

Katherine’s box: 5x5x5= 125

Giana’s box: 10x12x2= 240

Jackson’s box: 10x5x4= 200
