A unit rate is a value compared to how many units

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aloiza [94]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Ex: If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.

120/3 = 40/1

The unit rate of 120 students for every 3 buses is 40 students per bus. You could also find the unit rate by dividing the first term of the ratio by the second term.

Ben wants to get a 94 in math class. His grade will be the average of two test scores. He scored an 89 on the first test. What g
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Ben needs to get a 99% on his second test

Step-by-step explanation:

The average is the sum of both test scores, divided by the total number of test scores (2).

Let x by the grade Ben must receive on his second test.

(89 + x)/2 = 94

Multiply by 2 on both sides

89 + x = 188

Subtract 89 on both sides

x = 99

Check work:

(89 + 99)/2 = 188/2 = 99

A cylinder and a cone have the same volume. The cylinder has radius x and height y. The cone has radius 2x. Find the height of t
weqwewe [10]
V(cylinder)=πR²H
Radius of the cylinder R=x, height of the cylinder H=y.
We can write for the cylinder
V(cylinder)=πx²y

V(cone) =(1/3)πr²h
Radius of the cone r=2x.
We can write for the cone
V(cone)= (1/3)π(2x)²h=(1/3)π *4*x²h

V(cylinder) =V(cone)
πx²y=(1/3)π *4*x²h
y=(4/3)*h
h=(3/4)*y
