Answer: There is 14.5 miles run by Matthew in week 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Week   Number of miles

1                         12.5

2                        13.5

First we will find the slope :

(1,12.5) and (2,13.5)

So, Slope would be

\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\=\dfrac{13.5-12.5}{2-1}\\\\=1

So, equation of line would be

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-12.5=1(x-1)\\\\y-12.5=x-1\\\\y-x=12.5-1\\\\y-x=11.5

We need to find the number of miles in week 3.

So, we put x = 3,

y-3=11.5\\\\y=11.5+3\\\\y=14.5

Hence, there is 14.5 miles run by Matthew in week 3.

find the curved surface area and total surface area of a right circular cylinder whose height is 15 cm and the radius of the bas
otez555 [7]

Answer:

CSA = 660cm^2 --- Curved Surface Area

TSA = 968cm^2  --- Total Surface Area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Cylinder

h = 15 -- height

r = 7 --- radius

Solving (a): The curved surface area (CSA)

This is calculated as:

CSA = 2\pi rh

This gives:

CSA = 2 * \frac{22}{7} * 7 * 15

CSA = 2 * 22* 15

CSA = 660cm^2

Solving (b): The total surface area (TSA)

This is calculated as:

TSA = 2\pi r(h + r)

This gives:

TSA = 2 * \frac{22}{7} * 7 * (15 + 7)

TSA = 2 * 22 * (15 + 7)

TSA = 2 * 22 * 22

TSA = 968cm^2

Marissa subtracted a negative number from a positive number. Her result was negative. Is that reasonable? Explain.
s2008m [1.1K]
No. If you subtract a negative from a positive number its equivalent to adding the inverse of that negative number. If you add a negative to a positive number It is equivalent to subtracting from that positive number.

Julia has 4 gallons 2 quarts of water.Ally needs the same amount of water but only has 12 quarts.How much more water does Ally n
ozzi
Ok so what do we know :
 
4 quarts = 1 gal
Julia has 4gal and 2 quarts or 18 quarts
ally has 12 quarts

so if julia has 18 quarts and ally has 12 that means that ally needs 6 more quarts (or 1gal 2 quarts) so that she and julia can have the same amount

The estimated measurements of the objects are shown below.
olga2289 [7]

The scientific notation is a method that scientists use to easily handle very large numbers or very small numbers. As an example, instead of writing down the value 0.0000000065, we write the value 6.5 x 10-9 in scientific notation. The number of places the decimal point got moved becomes the exponent of the number 10. When the movement is from left to right, the exponent is negative (for very small numbers). When it is right to left, the exponent is positive (for very large numbers).

 

Therefore writing estimated measurements in scientific notation:

 

length of a grain of salt : 0.0002 centimeters = 2 x 10-4 centimeters

width of a key ring : 0.02 centimeters = 2 x 10-2 centimeters
