The answer is 10 ft.  make a triangle 6ft tall, 8ft long (90 degrees to the other line) and draw a line to complete the triangle.  This is a type of 3,4,5 triangle, a 6,8,10.  The other way to do it is sqrt(6^2+8^2) = sqrt(36+64) = sqrt (100) = 10.

Question 2(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points) (04.01)The Boardman family walked two over five of a mile in two over seven of an hou
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The unit rate in miles per hour = <em>1.4 miles/hr</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance walked by Boardman family = Two over five of a mile = \frac{2}{5}\ miles

Time taken by Boardman family = Two over seven of an hour = \frac{2}{7}\ hour

To find:

The unit rate in the miles per hour = ?

Solution:

Formula for the rate or the speed can be given as:

Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}

Putting the values:

\Rightarrow \dfrac{\frac{2}5}{\frac{2}7}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{7}{5}\\\Rightarrow \bold{1.4\ miles/hr}

So, the unit rate in miles per hour = <em>1.4 miles/hr</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Ratio=  1:4:7

combined ratio= 1+4+7= 12

Total amount= $636,000

Apply the part to all method

The first person will take

1/12= x/ 636,000

cross multiply

12x= 636,000*1

x= 636,000/12

x= 53000

The second person will take

4/12= x/ 636,000

cross multiply

12x= 636,000*4

x= 2544000/12

x= 212000

The third person will take

7/12= x/ 636,000

cross multiply

12x= 636,000*7

x= 4452000/12

x= 371000

Karl set out to Alaska on his truck. The amount of fuel remaining in the truck's tank (in liters) as a function of distance driv
Stells [14]

Answer:

500 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel (y) Karl has in his car is a function of the distance (x) Karl travelled. The amount of fuel (y) is dependent on the distance (x) Karl travelled.

On the y-axis, we have amount of fuel.

On the x-axis, we have distance travelled.

At the time Karl travelled when he had 200 liters of fuel (y) remaining in his car, he had travelled a distance (x) of 500 kilometers.

We know this by looking at the graph given. When x (distance) = 500, y (fuel) = 200.
