The correct question is
<span>Zach keeps his pet chameleon Pinky in a terrarium with the dimensions 8 x 20. There are three inches of sand in the bottom of the terrarium. Zach gets a new terrarium that is larger. The base of the new terrarium is 10 x 24 inches. Zach moved the existing sand to the new terrarium. How deep will the sand be in the new terrarium?
</span>

Step 1
find the volume of sand
volume of sand=8*20*3------------>Volume of sand=480 in³

Volume of sand in the new terrarium=10*24*h
where h------------> is the deep in the new terrarium
remember that the volume of sand is the same
so
10*24*h=480----------> h=480/(10*24)-----------> h=2 in

the answer is 2 in

Solve the following multiplication and division problems. a. 8 T. 1,398 lb. 14 oz. × 6 b. 349 lb. 6 oz. ÷ 130 c. 6 T. 294 lb. ÷
tester [92]

Answer:  a) 278382 oz

b) 43 oz

c) 64.1 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 8 T. 1,398 lb. 14 oz. × 6

First we need to change it in 'oz'.

As we know that

1\ ton=32000\ oz\\\\1\ lb=16\ oz

so, it becomes,

8\times 32000+1398\times 16+14\ oz\\\\=278382\ oz

8 T. 1,398 lb. 14 oz. × 6 becomes

278382\times 6\\\\=1670292\ oz

b) 349 lb. 6 oz. ÷ 130

It becomes,

349\times 16+6\ oz\\\\=5590\ oz\\\\\text{ at last it becomes}\\\\=\frac{5590}{130}\\\\=43\ oz

c) 6 T. 294 lb. ÷ 3,071

First it becomes,

6\times 32000+294\times 16\ oz\\\\=196704\ oz

At last it becomes,

\frac{196704}{3071}\\\\=64.1\ oz

Hence, a) 278382 oz

b) 43 oz

c) 64.1 oz

Joshua started cycling at 5:15 pm By 8:09 pm, he has covered a distance of 7250 mWhat was Joshua's average speed during that tim
vivado [14]

The average speed of Joshua during that time is 2500 m/h.

Explanation:

It is given that Joshua started cycling at 5:15 pm. By 8:09 pm he has covered a distance of 7250 m.

The total time taken by Joshua from 5:15 pm to 8:09 pm is

2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2 \mathrm{h}+\frac{54}{60} {h}

Dividing we get,

2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2 \mathrm{h}+0.9 {h}

Adding, we have,

2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2.9 {h}

Thus, the total time taken by Joshua is 2.9 {h}

To determine the average speed we use the formula,

speed=\frac{distance}{time}

where distance=7250 and time=2.9

Hence, substituting the values we have,

speed=\frac{7250}{2.9}

Dividing, we get,

speed=2500

Thus, the average speed of Joshua during that time is 2500 m/h.

A bakery uses 70% of its milk in one week. They now have 36 quarts of milk left. The bakery started the week with how many quart
PIT_PIT [208]
The bakery starts a week with 100% quarts of milk.
In the course of the week they use 70%, meaning the remainder is 30% quarts of milk.
Therefore, the remaining quarts are equivalent to 30%
thus,  36 = 30% to get 100% ;
     (36/30) ×100 = 120
Therefore, the bakery started the week with 120 quarts of milk

What is the approximate length of arc s on the circle below? Use 3.14 for Pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
slega [8]

Answer:

The approximate length of arc s is 14.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

step 1

Find the circumference of the circle

The formula to calculate the circumference is equal to

C=2\pi r

we have

r=6\ in\\\pi=3.14

substitute

C=2(3.14)(6)\\C=37.68\ in

step 2

Find the approximate length of arc s

we know that

The circumference of a circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

so

using proportion

Find the arc length s for a central angle of 135 degrees

\frac{37.68}{360}=\frac{x}{135}\\\\x=37.68(135)/360\\\\x= 14.1\ in
