Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

By subtracting 130, 35, and 74 from the total of 400, you arrive at 160 left. Next, simplify this fraction by finding the greatest common divisor to get 2/5!

Answer: 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben donates 35 counters to Sonia, 130 to Phil, and 75 to Lance, leading to a total of 240 counters given away. Consequently, there are 160 counters remaining in his bag, equating to a fraction of 160/400. Reducing this fraction involves dividing by 20 to yield 8/20, which further simplifies to 2/5 when divided by 4.

The water level of a river is 170 feet. The river recedes 4 feet each year. Ingrid claims that the equation that represents this
Zina [12379]

Sample Answer: No, Ingrid's statement is incorrect. In this situation, the starting point is at 170 feet, which denotes the y-intercept. The reduction of 4 feet per year symbolizes the rate of change, or slope. In the slope-intercept equation format, y = mx + b, with 'm' denoting the slope and 'b' signifying the y-intercept, the accurate equation would be y = −4x + 170.

The formula F=9/5(k-273.15)+32 converts a temperature from kelvin K to degrees Fahrenheit F.
Svet_ta [12734]

Step One

Deduct 32 from both sides.

F - 32 = \frac{9}{5}(k - 273.15)

Step Two

Multiply each side by \frac{5}{9}.

\frac{5}{9}(F - 32) = \frac{5}{9} \times \frac{9}{5}(k - 273.15)

\frac{5}{9}(F - 32) = k - 273.15

Step Three

Add 273.15 to both sides.

\frac{5}{9}(F - 32) + 273.15 = k

Problem B

F = 180

Solve for k

k = \frac{5}{9}(F - 32) + 273.15

k = \frac{5}{9}(180 - 32) + 273.15

k = \frac{5}{9} \times 148 + 273.15

k = 82.2222 + 273.15

k = 355.3722

k = 355.4  <<< Answer

A spring stretches by 21.0 cm when a 135 n object is attached. what is the weight of a fish that would stretch the spring by 49
Inessa [12570]
When the stretch is proportional to the weight, it can be expressed as:
weight/(49 cm) = (135 N)/(21 cm)
weight = (49/21)×135 N
weight = 315 N

The fish's weight would be 315 N.
