11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

a.  4 litres in 5 minutes (litres per minute)

4 litres per 5 minutes means 4/5 litres per 1 min = 0.8 litres per minutes

b. 12 litres in 45 minutes = 12/3 litres in 45/3 minutes = 4 litres per 15 minutes

60 minutes = 4*15 minutes

4 * 4 = 16 litres per hour

c. 800 kilowatt hours in 2 months

1 year = 12 months = 2*6 months

kilowatt per year = 800 * 6 = 4800 kilowatt per year

Hope this helped :3

The measure of an angle is 8 times the measure of its complement. tina writes an equation and finds the correct measure of each
pogonyaev
One of the unknown angles (let's called it n) has a complement (meaning their sum adds up to 90 degrees) and the other angle is 8 times the unknown angle (8n)

With all this information, you should have the equation:

n + 8n = 90

To solve, combine like terms to get:

9n = 90

Divide by 9 on both sides to isolate the variable n.

n = 10

Now we plug back in to find our angle measurements. The first angle, n, is 10 degrees. The second angle, 8n, is 8 * 10 which is 80; the second angle is 80 degrees.

sukhopar [10]
Answer:
There are 2.22 grams of clay are in each pot.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Dakota has 4/10 kg of clay. He divides the clay to make 888 equal-sized pots.
Now, to find the number of grams of clay are in each pot.
Dakota has clay =
So, by using conversion factor we convert it into grams:

Quantity of clay he has = 400 grams.
Number of equal-sized pots to make = 888.
Now, to get the quantity of grams of clay are in each pot we divide number of equal-sized pots to make by quantity of clay he has:
Therefore, there are 2.22 grams of clay are in each pot.
