-40°F is how many °C?
-40
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-40 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-72) = {{-72 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {-360 \over 9}\)
\(C° = -40\)
Which of the following would be used to make a drilling guide mark in a sheet of metal?
center punch
A punch is narrow and is used to drive objects like nails (pin punch) or for making guide marks for drilling (center punch) or patterns in wood or metal.
Which of the following allows encapsulating complex circuit designs for easier integration into electronic devices and machines?
integrated circuits
Circuits containing transistors are packaged into integrated circuit chips that allow encapsulating complex circuit designs (CPU, memory, I/O) for easier integration into electronic devices and machines.
This circuit component symbol represents a(n):
AC source
In contrast to the constant one-way flow of direct current, alternating current changes direction many times each second. Electricity is delivered from power stations to customers as AC because it provides a more efficient way to transport electricity over long distances.
If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.
bisects
A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, __________ ?
The equation for this sequence is:
an = an-1 + 2(n - 1)
where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:
a6 = a5 + 2(6 - 1)
a6 = 21 + 2(5)
a6 = 31
Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in:
amperes
Current is the rate of flow of electrons per unit time and is measured in amperes (A). A coulomb (C) is the quantity of electricity conveyed in one second by a current of one ampere.
A menswear store is having a sale: "Buy one shirt at full price and get another shirt for 50% off." If Damon buys two shirts, each with a regular price of $39, how much will he pay for both shirts?
By buying two shirts, Damon will save $39 x \( \frac{50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$39 x 50}{100} \) = \( \frac{$1950}{100} \) = $19.50 on the second shirt.
So, his total cost will be
$39.00 + ($39.00 - $19.50)
$39.00 + $19.50
$58.50
