Time for fractions!!!

I’m going to set a rate of miles per gallon and then cross multiply to get me answer.

41miles/gallon = 617.3/xgallons

617.3 multiplied by 1 and then divided by 41 = about 15.05 gallons

A reasonable estimate then is 15 and a half gallons, because rather than measuring down to the hundredths, the next closest and reasonable measurement is 15 and a half or under.

Comment if you don’t understand and I’ll try to help.

Jerry’s rhombus has a base of 15 inches and a height of 9 inches. Charlene’s rhombus has a base and a height that are 13 the bas
neonofarm [45]

Answer:  The area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that the exercise says "\frac{1}{3} times the base and height of Jerry’s rhombus".

The area of a rhombus can be calculated with the following formula:

A=b*a

Where "b" is the length of the base  and "a" is the altitude or the height.

Then, you can calculate the area using the formula shown above.

Therefore, you get:

1. Jerry's rhombus:

A_1=(15\ in)(9\ in)\\\\A_1=135\ in^2

2. Charlene's rhombus:

A_2=(\frac{1}{3}*15\ in)(\frac{1}{3}*9\ in)\\\\A_2=(5\ in)(3\ in)\\\\A_2=15\ in^2

Dividing the area calculated, you get:

\frac{135\ in^2}{15\ in^2}=9

Therefore, you can conclude that the area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.

According to the empirical rule, 68% of 7-year-old children are between ___ inches and ___ inches tall.
AveGali [126]

Using the empirical rule 68% would fall within one standard deviation of the mean.

The standard deviation is given as 2 inches and the mean is 49 inches.

Since it is only one standard deviation find the lower number by subtracting the standard deviation from the mean and find the higher number by adding the standard deviation to the mean.

49 - 2 = 47

49 + 2 = 51


68% would be between 47 inches and 51 inches tall.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

In year 1986 the average  cost of car is  $12,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost function:

C = 30.5t² + 4192

Cost = $12,000

Find:

Year

Computation:

C = 30.5t² + 4192

12,000 = 30.5t² + 4192

t = 16 year

So,

Year 1970 + 16 year

1986

So, In year 1986 the average  cost of car is  $12,000
