Answer:

Approximately 3,333 acres per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first find out how many hours are in 3 days.

There are 24 hours in one day.

24 times 3 = 72.

There are 72 hours in 3 days.

So the wildfire is destroying 240,000 acres every 72 hours.

240,000 divided by 72 = 3,333.3333, which is about

3,333 acres per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

240000 acres in 3 days.

1 day = 24 h

3 days = 24×3 = 72 h

acres destroyed per hour = 240000 / 72 =

= 3,333.333333...

One large jar and five small jars can hold 26 ounces of jam. One large jar minus one small jar can hold 2 ounces of jam. Use the
Lesechka [4]

Using a system of equations, it is found that one large jar holds 6 ounces and one small jar holds 4 ounces.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

  • Variable l: Weight that a large jar holds.
  • Variable s: Weight that a small jar holds.

One large jar and five small jars can hold 26 ounces of jam, hence:

l + 5s = 26, which is the first equation in matrix form.

Then:

l = 26 - 5s.

One large jar minus one small jar can hold 2 ounces of jam, hence:

l - s = 2, which is the second equation in matrix form:

Then:

l = 2 + s = 26 - 5s

2 + s = 26 - 5s

6s = 24

s = 4.

l = 26 - 5s = 6.

Find the dimensions of a rectangular building with a perimeter of 110 meters if the length is four
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

b = 11 m

l = 44 m

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 4b (length is four times width)

Perimeter = 110 m

2 * ( l + b ) = 110

2 * (4b + b ) = 110

         2 * 5b = 110

                b = 110 / ( 2*5) = 11

b = 11 m

l = 4b = 4 * 11 = 44 m
