Answer:

60 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : a water pipe leak floods 50 square feet every 1/5 minute.

To find :  what is the flooded area after 6 minutes.

Solution : We have given

In \frac{1}{5} minute water pipe leak flood = 50 square feet.

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 50 * \frac{1}{5].

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 50 * \frac{1}{5}* 6 square feet.

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 10 * 6 square feet.

In 1 minute water pipe leak flood = 60 square feet.

Therefore,

60 square feet.

The story problem is very straightforward. Normally, you need to read the problem and understand it.

Let's look at the question again.

Although we do not have all the quantities, we can still show how to solve the problem.

Let x be the total  number of flowers.

There are 4 vases.

Therefore, the number of flowers in each vase will be:

x/4

Flow the same rule for similar problems.

What is the approximate perimeter of the figure?
exis [7]
<span>This is a perimeter of 1/4 of a circle. We know that the radius of the circle: r = 5 in. Also the perimeter of the circle is : 2 * r * Pi = 2 * 5 * 3.14 = 31.4 in. For the quarter of a circle it its 31.4 : 4 = 7.85 in. After that we can add the 2 lengths of the radius: P = 5 + 5 + 7.85 = 17.85 in ( approx. 17.9 in ). Answer: C ) 17.9 in. </span>

Westkost [7]

Answer:

         \large\boxed{\large\boxed{3\times 10^8meters}}

Explanation:

One of the applications of scientific notation is to make estimations rounding the whole part of the numbers, i.e. the digits before the decimal point, to the nearest integer, and adding the exponents of the powers of base 10.

Here, you must estimate this product of two numbers written is scientific notation:

          (3.21\times 10^3)(1.13\times 10^5)

Then, for an estimation you round 3.21 to 3 and 1.13 to 1, then multiply 3 × 1 = 3. That will be the coefficient of your new power of 10.

The power or exponent will be the sum of the powers of the numbers that are being multiplied, i.e. 3 + 5 = 8.

And the result is 3\times 10^8

The unit is meters, so you write your answer as: 3\times 10^8meters
