Rafael Drive 405 miles using 20 gallons of gas. At that rate, how many gallons of gas would he need to drive 243 miles?

1 answer:

3 0

This is how I'd set it up:
405/20 = 243/x
this means the mpg (miles / gallons) for 1 situation is the same as the mpg for the other situation (because the rate is the same)
then just cross multiply and solve:
405x=243*20 or 405x=4860 or x = 12
he would need 12 gallons of gas for 243 miles

A cone has a diameter of 6 cm and a height that is 3 times the diameter. Using 3.14 for pi, which of the following can be used t

Zinaida [17]

Option A: 1/3(3.14)(3cm)^2(18cm) is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Diameter of Cone = d = 6 cm

Radius will be:

r = d/2 = 6/2 = 3 cm

Height of cone = h = 3d = 18 cm

The volume of cone is given by:

$V = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

Putting the values

$V = \frac{1}{3} (3.14)(3)^2(18)$

Hence,

Option A: 1/3(3.14)(3cm)^2(18cm) is the correct answer

Write the first 4 terms of the sequence defined by the given rule f(n)=n2 -1

Softa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute n = 1, n = 2, n = 3 and n = 4 to the equation f(n) = n² - 1:

f(1) = 1² - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0

f(2) = 2² - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

f(3) = 3² - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8

f(4) = 4² - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15
