Answer:

The gestation period of rhinos ​(487 ​days) is​ 121. 3 percent longer than the gestation period of bears ​(220 ​days).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Gestation period of rhinos = 487  ​days

Gestation period  of bears = 220 ​days

To Find:

Percentage increase = ?

Solution:

The percentage increase =\frac{ \text{new value} - \text{final value} }{\text{final value}} \times 100

On substituting the  values,

= \frac{ 487 - 220}{220}\times 100

=\frac{267}{220}\times 100

=>1.213 \times 100

=> 121.3 %

a water tank holds 24,000 gallons how many hours will it take for two thirds of the water to be used if the water is used at an
melomori [17]
In this question there are several important information's worth noting.Based on these information's the answer can be easily found. It is given that the total capacity of the tank is 24000 gallons. in 24 hours or in 1 day the amount of water used is 650 gallons. The question requires us to find the time it will take to use 2/3 rd of the water in the tank.
then
2/3 rd water in respect to total water in tank = (2/3) * 24000
                                                                       = 16000
So 2/3 rd water of full tank is equivalent to 16000 gallons.
Now
650 gallons of water is used in = 24 hours
So
16000 gallons of water will be used in = (24/650) * 16000
                                                             = 590.77 hours
So it will take 590.77 hours to consume 2/3rd of the total water present in the tank.

Solve the equation 5x + (−2) = 6x + 4 using the algebra tiles. What tiles need to be added to both sides to remove the smaller x
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

a) Adding -5x on both sides of the equation to remove the smaller x-coefficient

b) Adding -4 on both sides will remove the constant from the right side of the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

5x + (−2) = 6x + 4

a) What tiles need to be added to both sides to remove the smaller x-coefficient?

Smaller x-coefficient is 5x to remove the smaller x-coefficient

So, Adding -5x on both sides of the equation to remove the smaller x-coefficient

b) What tiles need to be added to both sides to remove the constant from the right side of the equation?

the constant on right side is 4

Adding -4 on both sides will remove the constant from the right side of the equation

Using the side-splitter theorem, which segment length would complete the proportion?
tia_tia [17]

we know that

<u>The Side-Splitter Theorem</u>: States that If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then it divides those two sides proportionally

so

in this problem

\frac{GH}{HE} =\frac{GJ}{JF}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The segment length is GJ
