Answer:

a is any number that is multiples of 3

3, 6, 9, 12, etc...

Step-by-step explanation:

5 1/3 ÷ 4/a

16/3 * a/4

16a/12

\frac{4}{3} a

since denominator is 3, a can be any whole number that is a multiple of 3

\frac{4}{3}(3) = 4

\frac{4}{3}(6) = 8

\frac{4}{3}(9) = 12

so on and so on....

Lelu [443]

Answer:

-72 feet : Shark is 72 feet below sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent depth of the shark.

We have been given that the submarine’s depth was twice the depth of the shark. This means that depth of submarine would be 2x.

We have been given that a submarine was 144 feet below sea level, so submarine's elevation would be -144\text{ ft}.We can represent this information in an equation as:

2x=-144

To find shark's position, we need to solve for x.

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-144}{2}

x=-72

Therefore, -72 feet represents shark's elevation, which represents that shark is 72 feet below sea level.

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

  45 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the triangle is given by ...

  A = (1/2)bh

where b is the base, 2 cm + 3 cm = 5 cm, and h is the height, 6 cm.

  A = (1/2)(5 cm)(6 cm) = 15 cm^2

__

The area of the rectangle is given by ...

  A = bh

where b is the base, 12 cm, and h is the height, 2.5 cm.

  A = (12 cm)(2.5 cm) = 30 cm^2

__

The area of the whole figure is the area of the triangle added to the area of the rectangle:

  drawing area = 15 cm^2 + 30 cm^2 = 45 cm^2
