Answer:

  25 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming miles-per-gallon is a constant, the amount of gas is proportional to the miles driven:

  gallons/(500 mi) = (13 gal)/(260 mi)

  gallons = (500 mi)/(260 mi)(13 gal) . . . . multiply by 500 mi

  gallons = 25 gal . . . . do the arithmetic

The van will need 25 gallons of gas to go 500 miles.

QUESTION :-

what is the value of x to the nearest whole number?

ANSWER :-

\cos( \theta)  =   \frac{base}{hypotenuse}  \\  \cos(30)  =  \frac{x}{24}  \\  \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ \cancel2}  =  \frac{x}{ \cancel{24}}  =  \frac{x}{12}  \\ 1.732 =  \frac{x}{12}  \\ 12 \times 1.732 = x \\ x = 20.7

SO

the nearest whole number-->

20.7 --> approximately --> 21 units

In her wallet, Ms. Thompson has one-dollar, five-dollar and ten-dollar bills totaling $171. She has the same number of five-doll
Phantasy [73]
 6 one-dollars = $6 15 five-dollars = $75 9 ten-dollars = $90 Add them all up to get $171, so that is correct. Add the number of one-dollar bills and the number of ten-dollar bills together. 6 + 9 = 15, which is the number of five-dollar bills, so that is correct as well. Add all the numbers of bills together, 6 + 9 + 15 = 15 + 15 = 30.

Explain how proving to triangles congruent can help prove parts of the triangle congruent.
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

CPCTC - Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

When two triangles are congruent, this means they have the same shape and the same size. To have the same shape, each angle must be congruent. To have the same size, each side length must be congruent. When you know two triangles are congruent you can say each corresponding part of congruent triangles is congruent. This is known as CPCTC.
