Answer:

25 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

30 km/hr = (30 km/1 hr)*(1000 m/1 km)*(1 hr/60 min)*(1 min/60 sec)

30 km/hr = (30*1000*1*1)/(1*1*60*60) meters per second

30 km/hr = 8.3333333333 m/s (approximate)

----------

The speed or rate is r = 8.3333333333 meters per second approximately, and the time is t = 3 seconds, so,

distance = rate*time

d = r*t

d = 8.3333333333 * 3

d = 24.9999999999

Due to rounding error, the true answer should be d = 25. We can see this if we opted to use the fraction from of 8.3333... instead of the decimal representation which isn't a perfect exact measurement.

What is the hight of a Building 1 Angle 71o Distance 20 meters

vlabodo [156]

The height of a building is 58.08 meters if the angle is 71 degree and the distance between A and B is 20 meters.

<h3>What is trigonometry?</h3>

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationship between sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.

We have:

Angle = 71 degree

Distance between A and B = 20 meters

Let's suppose the height of the building is x meters.

From the right angle triangle applying the tan ratio:

tan71 = x/20

x = 58.08 meter

Thus, the height of a building is 58.08 meters if the angle is 71 degree and the distance between A and B is 20 meters.

when full the gas tank of a car holds 15 gallons. it now contains 12 gallons. what percent represents how full the tank is?

Masteriza [31]

Hello!

to find the percent of a whole, use this equation here:

(remaining) / (total) = X

X * 100 = %

in this case:

12 / 15 = 0.8

0.8 * 100 = 80

your answer is 80%

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
