<span>The word problem gives a rate of oil consumption at a rate of 25 gallons per 3 hours and 45 minutes. 3 hours and 45 minutes can be displayed as 3.75 hours. so you can say the generator consumes oil at a rate of 25 gallons per 3.75 hours. The following equation give you the oil consumption on a per hour basis; 25/3.75 and that gives you 6.67 gallons per hour. In 6 hours the generator will consume 40 gallons.</span>
Both are correct because the ratio is 10:20 but when u simplify by dividing you get 1:2
To solve this we are going to use the simple interest formula:
where
is the final amount.
is the initial investment.
is the interest rate in decimal form.
is the time in years.
Investment A. We know that the initial investment is $10,000, so
. We also know that the number of years is 5, so
. To convert the interest rate to decimal form, we are going to divide the rate by 100%
Lets replace those values in our formula to find
:
Investment B. 
,
, and
.
We can conclude that
investment A will be worth than investment B at the end of the investment period.
If a plot of land in the shape of a horizontal ellipse has a pole at each focus. the foci are 16 feet from the center. if the plot of land is 40 feet across one axis, how long is it across the other axis is: c. 24 feet.
<h3>
Length across the other axis</h3>
Using Pythagoreans theorem formula
a²=b²+c²
Where:
c=16 feet
a=40/2=20 feet
Hence:
20²=b²+16²
b²=20²-16²
b²=400-256
b²=√144
b=12
2b=12×2
2b=24 feet
Therefore if the plot of land is 40 feet across one axis, how long is it across the other axis is: c. 24 feet.
The complete question is are:
A plot of land in the shape of a horizontal ellipse has a pole at each focus. The foci are 16 feet from the center. If the plot of land is 40 feet across one axis, how long is it across the other axis?
a. 34 feet
b. 46 feet
c. 24 feet
d. 30 feet
