Answers

Answer 1

Answer: First lets get the ratio for the avocado and pear trees and work from there
We know there are 5 pear trees for every 2 avocado trees or 5:2

Since we know the total Avocado trees is 18 we can find out how much to multiply the ratio by dividing the total number of trees(18) by the Avocado portion of the ratio (2) 18/2 = 9.

This means to get the total number of pear trees we need to also multiply the pear side of the ratio (5) by 9. 5*9 = 45 pear trees

Now that we know the pear trees we do the same thing with the apple and pear trees to figure out the total apple trees. The ratio of apple to pear trees is 4:3.

Since we know the total number of pear trees is 45 we divide that by the pear side of the ratio (3) to get our multiplier. 45/3=15.

We then multiply our apple side of the ratio (4) by our multiplier (15) to get our total number of apple trees. 4*15=60

Now we know that we have 60 apple trees and 18 avocado trees or 60:18 which reduced is 10:3 apple trees:avocado trees

D. 1.92559524e-44

Answers

Answer:

C. 1.791875241e13

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

Amount of water flows over Niagara Falls per second = 5.67811×10⁵

Also, the number of seconds in a year = 3.15576×10⁷

Thus,

Liters of water that flows in a year = Amount of water that flows × Number of seconds

i.e. Liters of water = 5.67811 × 10⁵ × 3.15576 × 10⁷

i.e. Liters of water = 17.91875241 × 10¹²

i.e. Liters of water = 1.791875241 × 10¹³

Hence, the liters of water that flows through Niagara Falls each year is 1.791875241 × 10¹³ i.e. 1.791875241e13

1) 1/2 = 3/6
1/2 = 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 3/6
1/2 = 3 * 1/6 = 3/6

2) 1/4 = 2/8
1/4 = 1/8 + 1/8 = 2/8
1/4 = 2 * 1/8 = 2/8

3) 1/4 = 4/16
1/4 = 1/16 + 1/16 + 1/16 + 1/16 = 4/16
1/4 = 4 * 1/16 = 4/16

Write each ration number as a fraction-27, -16

Answers

-27 = -27/1 or 27/-1 .

-54/2 and -81/3 etc. also work,

-16 = -16/1 or 16/-1 .

-32/2 , -48/3, -64/4 etc. also work.

Just put the number over 1. so -27 as a fraction is -27/1
-16 is -16/1
