She will go for 7 trips if she has  15 1/2 gallons of water

<h3>Proportion and equations</h3>

From the given information, Ellen can carry 1 3/8 gallons of water each trip, this means:

  • 1 trip = 11/8 gallons

In order to calculate the number of trips, it will take to make 15 1/2 gallons of water, we will have:

x = 21/2 gallons

Take the ratios of both expressions:

1/x =  11/8 * 2/21

1/x = 22/168

x = 168/22

x = 7.64 trips

Hence she will go for 7 trips if she has  15 1/2 gallons of water

Given two angles that measure 50 degrees and 80 degrees and side that measures 4 feet, how many triangles, if any, can be constr
kirza4 [7]
The angles are the only constraint here that counts.  If one of the three interior angles of a supposed triangle is 50 degrees and another is 80 degrees, then the third angle must be 50 degrees.  Thus, we have a 50-50-80 triangle, which is isosceles though not a right triangle.  If 4 feet is a measure of one of the equal sides of a supposed triangle, then obviously the adjacent side also has measure 4 ft.

The set of angles remains the same (50-50-80), but subject to the constraint mentioned above, the measure of any one of the sides has infinitely many possible values, so long as those values are positive.

Work out 12+8÷(9-5) 0.018÷0.06 Express as single fraction 5/7÷2/5
Anettt [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if the first set of numbers is all in one set, but I'll do my best to give you an answer.

Really all you need to do is use PEMDAS for the first question.

(Parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract. In that order)

1 2 + 8 \div (9 - 5) \\ 12 + 8 \div 4 \\ 12 + 2 \\ 14

Then to simplify that fraction next to it, notice that 0.018 is 3x 0.06.

that's a 3:1 ratio, so it ends up simplifying to this:

\frac{3}{1}

Lastly, to solve the division of that fraction. If you divide by a fraction, you multiply whatever it's dividing by its inverse.

So...

\frac{5}{7}  \div  \frac{2}{5}  \\  \frac{5}{7}  \times  \frac{5}{2}  \\  \frac{25}{14}
