Answer:
45

Solution: you can use the above method or you can cross multiply. That’s mean multiplying the numerator of the left side by the denomination of the right. And the denominator on the left by the numerator on the right (it makes an x shape). Therefore, your algebraic equation should look like this and solve for x

14x=15*42
14x=630
X=630/14
X=45

Answer:

x=45

Explanation:

by taking 42 and dividing it by 14 you get 1/3, because 14 is 1/3 of 42 you can then see that the ratio is multiplied by 3. si then you can just multiply 15 by 3 to get 45

Sergeu [11.5K]

Explanation:

Given that,

The box of oranges cannot exceed a mass of 10.222 Kg if we are sending to a friend by mail.

The mass of each orange is 198 g

We know that,

1 kg = 1000 g

10.222 kg = 10.222×1000 g

Let there are n number of oranges. So,

$n=\dfrac{10.222\times 1000\ g}{198\ g}\\\\n=51.92\approx 52\ \text{oranges}$

It means she can send 52 oranges and it is maximum quantity.

Why is the answer B?

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The center of mass lies on a line that joins position 4 of one start with position 4 of the other star. The shortest distance between these two points will produce the largest velocity. You are using F = m v^2/R

Small R = large force.

Large Force = increased speed.

The masses don't have any effect on the outcome: they remain constant.
