Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.

As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics.

At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said:

"I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone."

"They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.

They spoke no more until camp was made.

The value of a digit in a number can be found by setting the other digits to zero.

The value of 2 in 12.5 is 2.

The value of 2 in 0.912 is 0.002.

The ratio of values is 2.000/0.002 = 2000/2 = 1000.

A customer purchased 3 pairs of jeans for $94.50. If each pair of jeans costs the same amount, write an equation and then solve for the amount a single pair of jeans costs

Answers

Answer:

One pair of jeans will cost $31.50

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much one pair of jeans will cost let's write an equation

where the cost of one pair of jeans is x

∴ 3×x=94.50

to find x we will divide both sides by 3

∴3÷3×x=94.50÷3

which makes the equation

x=31.50

meaning that one pair of jeans costs $31.50

if each pairs of jeans is the same amount

94.50=3*x

solve for x

94.59/3=x

31.50=x
each pair of jeans will cost $31.50

What is the slope please help you’ll be marked brainliest TYSMMMMMM

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is the ratio "y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point to another.

I think I can recognize two good points with integer coordinates :

(-30, -90) and (70, 70)

x changes by +100 (from -30 to 70)

y changes by +160 (from -90 to 70)

the slope is then +160/+100 = 16/10 = 8/5

a computer performs a calculation in 3.5 x 10^-5 seconds to solve a math problem. How long does the computer need to calculate the solutions to 5 x 10^4 math problems. Enter your answer in standard form

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

let's do this in 2 steps :

1. go for 1×10⁴ math problems

2. multiply that result by 5 to fully cover 5×10⁴

1.

3.5×10^-5 × 1×10⁴ = 3.5×10^-1

2.

5 × 3.5×10^-1 = 16.5×10^-1 = 1.65×10⁰

so, the computer needs 1.65×10⁰ or simply 1.65 seconds.

Answer:

2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must get rid of the exponent, which is that little 3 at the top.

To do this, we will do:

(-2) × (-2) × (-2) = -8

Now we have -8 + 3.4, which equals -4.6

Next we will combine the numbers in the denominator, to get -2.

Now, all together, we have -4.6/-2.

Last but not least, we will divide -4.6 by -2, to get 2.3

And that's your answer, hope this helps you :)

The Venn diagram for given situation is as shown below.

The number of students who study exactly one subject = 56

What is set?

"It is a collection of well-defined elements"

What is Venn diagram?

"It is a pictorial representation that uses circles to show the relationships among sets."

For given example,

We have been given the data for 120 mathematics students at a college concerning the languages French, German, and Russian

Let set A, B and C represents the number of students who study French, German and Russian respectively.

⇒ n(A) = 65

⇒ n(B) = 45

⇒ n(C) = 42

20 study French and German

⇒ n(A ∩ B) = 20

25 study French and Russian,

⇒ n (A ∩ C) = 25

15 study German and Russian.

⇒ n(B ∩ C) = 15

8 study all three languages.

⇒ n(A ∩ B ∩ C) = 8

So, the Venn diagram for given situation is shown below.

Now, we find the number of students who study exactly one subject.

28 students study French only, 18 students study German only and 10 students study Russian only.

So, the total number of students who study exactly one subject is,

28 + 18 + 10 = 56

Therefore, 56 students study exactly one subject
