Answer:

9:8

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the word problem, Joe has 6 frogs, 8 hamsters, 9 goldfish, and 3 snakes.

The question is asking the ratio of Joe's frogs AND snakes TO hamsters.

To find out the ratio of frogs and snakes, add how many frogs there are to how many snakes there are.

6 + 3 = 9.

The last part of the equation should be obvious.

There are 8 hamsters.

Therefore, the ratio of Joe's frogs and snakes to hamsters is 9:8.

Step-by-step explanation:

$sin \: 45 \degree = \frac{39}{z} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} } = \frac{39}{z} \\ \\ \therefore \: z = 39 \sqrt{2} \\ let \: p \: be \: the \: perpendicular \: \\ \\\therefore \: tan \: 45 \degree = \frac{39}{p} \\ \\ \therefore \:1 = \frac{39}{p} \\ \\ \therefore \:p = 39 \\ \\ sin \: 60 \degree = \frac{39}{x} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{39}{x} \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{78}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\ \therefore \: x = \frac{78 \sqrt{3} }{ 3 } \\ \\ \therefore \: x = 26 \sqrt{3} \\\\tan\: 60 \degree = \frac{39}{y} \\ \\ \therefore \: \sqrt{3} = \frac{39}{y} \\ \\ \therefore \: y = \frac{39}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \\ \therefore \: y= \frac{39 \sqrt{3} }{ 3 } \\ \\ \therefore \: y = 13 \sqrt{3} \\$

How many times greater is the value of the 7 in 874,699 than the value of

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

C. 10 times greater

Step-by-step explanation:

every time you move left a number space, the value increases by a multiple of 10x (the opposite is true for moving right)

for example:

1.0

10.0

100.0

10 is 10x greater than 1

100 is 10x greater than 10 or 100x greater than 1

*notice how the number 1 is moving one space to the left

Oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 mill

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794 million per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 million barrels of oil in the well; six years later 1,500,000 barrels remain.

i.e. if V stands for volume of oil, then

$V' =kV\\dv/V= kdt\\ln V = kt+C\\V = Ae^{kt}$
