2 to the power of 20/3 to the power of 8. 2^20/3^8 for short.
Answer: 1/40
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are told that Sinister Stan stole 3 3/4 oz of slime from Messy Molly and stole another 2 3/5 oz of slime from Rude Ralph. The total oz of slime stole would be:
= 3 3/4 + 2 3/5
= 3 15/20 + 2 12/20
= 5 27/20
= 6 7/20
We are told that his evil plans require 6 3/8 oz of slime, the amount needed for Sinister Stan for his evil plan would be:
= 6 3/8 - 6 7/20
= 6 30/80 - 6 28/80
= 2/80
= 1/40
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
butterfly = x minutes
breast = y minutes
total is 50 minutes
breast stroke = butterfly +20
Part A
x+y = 50
y = x+20
Part B
Substitute the second equation into the first
x+ (x+20) = 50
2x+20 = 50
2x+20-20 = 50-20
2x = 30
2x/2 = 30/2
x = 15
y = x+20
y = 20+15
y = 35 minutes
35 minutes on the breast stroke
Part C
45 minutes on the butterfly is not reasonable
We only have a total of 50 minutes
50-45 = 5
But he spend more time on the breast stroke ( 20 minutes more), but if he spend 45 minutes on the butterfly, he would have to spend less on the breast stroke.
Well the answer would be 12.5. I hoped that this helped. :)
