Answer:

3 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

y×(2/3)=2.25 (the same as 2 1/4)

÷2/3. ÷2/3

y=3.375

3 3=8 gallons

more of break down:

y×2/3=9/4

÷2/3 or ×3/2

y= 9. 3. 27

--- × ---- = ----- = 3 3/8

A parcel has a mass of 500g. Calculate its weight. (Assume the gravitational field strength is 10N/kg).
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The weight of the parcel is 5 N

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Weight can be calculated using the equation:

 W=mg

where

W ----> weight (W) is measured in newtons (N)

m ----> mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)

g ----> gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)

In this problem we have

g=10\ N/kg

m=500\ g

Remember that

1\ kg=1,000\ g

To convert g to kg

Divide by 1,000

so

m=500\ g=500/1,000=0.5\ kg

substitute the values in the equation

W=(0.5)(10)=5\ N

therefore

The weight of the parcel is 5 N

Six neighbors share 4 pies equally how much of a pie does each neighbor get
salantis [7]
Divide 4 by 6. Easier if you write it as a fraction: 4/6 This can be reduced to 2/3.   This means that each person gets 2/3 of a pie equally.

How many extraneous solutions does the equation below have? StartFraction 2 m Over 2 m + 3 EndFraction minus StartFraction 2 m O
xeze [42]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the fraction \frac{2m}{2m+3} -\frac{2m}{2m-3}

Step 1. Use LCM of the fraction, (2m+3)(2m-3), to simplify the fraction:

\frac{(2m-3)(2m)-(2m+3)(2m)}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =\frac{2m^2-6m-[2m^2+6m]}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =\frac{2m^2-6m-2m^2-6m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =\frac{-12m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)}

Step 2. Equate the resulting fraction to zero and solve for m:

\frac{-12m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =0

-12m=0[(2m+3)(2m-3)]

-12m=0

m=\frac{0}{-12}

m=0

Step 3. Replace the value in the original equation and check if it holds:

\frac{-12m}{(2m+3)(2m-3)} =0

-12m=0

Since m=0,

-12(0)=0

0=0

Since the only solution of the equation holds, the equation bellow doesn't have any extraneous solution
