How can conversion of measurements help me solve real world problems

Mathematics
1 answer:
jeka57 [31]3 years ago
6 0
In different parts of the world people use different units. Being able to convert will help me understand and fit into their surroundings. Like for instance in Canada people measure speed in kilometers, so their speed limits are written in kmph. While in America the speed is measured in miles so Mph. Knowinf=g the conversions can help you drive safely and not get a ticket.
Hope that was what you were expecting.

The width of a rectangular prism is six times its length. The height is five times its length. If its length is m units, what is
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

30m^3 cubic units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent length of the rectangular prism.

We have been given that the width of a rectangular prism is six times its length, so width of the prism would be 6m.

We are also told that the height is five times its length, so height of the prism would be 5m.

We know that volume of rectangular prism is height times width times length.

\text{Volume of rectangular prism}=lwh

\text{Volume of rectangular prism}=m\cdot 6m\cdot 5m

\text{Volume of rectangular prism}=30m^3

Therefore, the volume of the given rectangular prism would be 30m^3 cubic units.

Solve the system of linear equations by elimination.<br><br> 4x−3y=8<br> 5x−2y=−11
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(-7, -12)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-3y=8

5x-2y=-11

Is there any of the like terms can be added and the result will be 0? No, so we have to multiple one OR both of the equations to make that one number do that.

(I will try to remove the y like terms so i will multiple both of them by the opposite so both of the ys will be 6)

2(4x-3y=8)

-3(5x-2y=-11)

8x-6y=16

-15x+6y=33

(now the easy part… cancel the 6s and add the equations)

8x+(-15x)=-7x

16+33=49

-7x=49

(divide 49 by -7)

x=-7

Replace x in any of the equations and you’ll get the y value.

4x-3y=8

4(-7)-3y=8

-28-3y=8

-3y=36

y=12

Threfore, there is one solution which is….. (-7,-12)

Did you mean the Pythagorean theorem? If so I believe that the answer would be that the Pythagorean theorem is used any time there is a right triangle.
