If 16 cups equals one gallon than one 1/4 gallon equal cups

Mathematics

Well...this is a proportion problwm. for every 16 cups I have 1 gallon, so I can write that as:

16 cups
-----------
1 gallon

this value will be proportional to 1/4 a gallon equal "so many" cups. let's equal the unknown about of cups to x.

16 cups______ x cups
-----------.... = ..... ----------
1 gallon _____ 1/4 gallons

I can cross multiply to find x.

1 gallon • x cups = 16 cups • 1/4 gallons

16 times 1/4 is the same as 16/4, which equals 4.

1 gallon • x cups = 4 cups gallons

divide both sides by gallons

x cups = 4 cups

so! 1/4 of a gallon equals 4 cups.

The diagram shows the entrance to a tunnel.
gladu [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

it filled up half the circle (up to the center point) - if we had a full circle. but a little bit is cut off (below AB).

what we see is that the shaded area is the sum of the area of the triangle AOB and 2 equally sized circle segment areas left and right of AOB.

since we are dealing with a half-circle, we have 180° in total. 120° are taken by AOB, so, that leaves us with 180-120 = 60° for both circle segments (so, one has an angle of 30°).

and 2×30° = 1×60°, so we can calculate the area of one 60° segment instead of two 30° segments.

AOB is an isoceles triangle (the legs are equally long, and therefore also the 2 side angles are equal).

the area of this triangle AOB is

1/2 × a × b × sin(C) = 1/2 × 3 × 3 × sin(120) =

= 3.897114317... m²

a circle segment area of 60° is 60/360 = 1/6 of the full circle area (as a full circle = 360°).

so, it's area is

pi×r² × 1/6 = pi×3²/6 = pi×3/2 = 4.71238898... m²

so, the total area of the shaded area is

3.897114317... m² + 4.71238898... m² =

= 8.609503297... m²

Which of the following lines is perpendicular to the x-axis and contains the point (-11.4, 12.8)
sergejj [24]

The line x = -11.4 is perpendicular to the x-axis and contains point

(-11.4 , 12.8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the equations of the vertical lines and horizontal lines

  • The vertical line is a line parallel to y-axis
  • The x-coordinates of all points lie on the line are equal
  • The equation of the vertical line basses through point (a , b) is x = a
  • The horizontal line is a line parallel to x-axis
  • The y-coordinates of all points lie on the line are equal
  • The equation of the horizontal line passes through point (a , b) is y = b
  • The vertical line and the horizontal line are perpendicular to each other when intersect each other

∵ The line is perpendicular to the x-axis

∴ The line is a vertical line

∴ The equation of the line is x = a, where a is the x-coordinate

   of any point lies on the line

∵ The line contains point (-11.4 , 12.8)

∵ The x-coordinate of the point is -11.4

∴ a = -11.4

∴ The equation of the line is x = -11.4

The line x = -11.4 is perpendicular to the x-axis and contains point

(-11.4 , 12.8)
