The Leg Rule (or Leg geometric mean theorem) relates the length of each leg of a right triangle with the segments projected by them on the hypotenuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the segments into which it divides the hypotenuse. Notice the triangle used with this rule. The leg of a right triangle is the mean proportional between the hypotenuse and the projection of the leg on the hypotenuse.

Sean tried to drink as fast as he could. He drank the slushy at a constant rate. There were originally 275 milliliters of slushy

loris [4]

a. Sean drank at a rate of 5 milliliters per second.

b. It took Sean 55 s to drink all the slushy.

<h3>a. How to find the rate at which Sean drank?</h3>

Since Sean darnak at a constant rate and originally there were 275 milliliters of slushy in the cup. After 13 seconds, 210 milliliters of slushy remained.

The rate at which Sean drank, r = Change in volume of slushy/time for change

= (275 mL - 210 mL)/13 s

= 65 mL/13 s

= 5 mL/s

So, Sean drank at a rate of 5 milliliters per second.

<h3>b. How long did it take Sean to drink all the slushy?</h3>

The time it takes Sean to drink all the slushy is given by

T = V/r where

V = total volume of slushy = 275 milliliters and
r = rate of drinking by Sean = 5 mL/s

So, T = V/r

= 275 mL/5 mL/s

= 55 s

So, it took Sean 55 s to drink all the slushy.
