Answer:

160 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let call dj distance run by Jess and dw distance run by Wes

By Jess courtesy Wes will be 60 meters ahead of Jess

Let call t the time in which both runners are at the same point, which in fact is when both distances are equal

dj = 8 m/sec * t and dw = 60 + 5 m/sec * t

Then we make dj = dw

8*t = 60 + 5*t

3*t = 60

t = 20 sec

Now passed 20 sec dj = 8 * 20 = 160 m

and dw = 60 + 5*20 dw = 160 m

The volume of a cone =13πr2h

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Volume of cone = 418.67 cm³ (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius of cone = 5 cm

Height of cone = 16 cm

Find:

Volume of cone

Computation:

Volume of cone = [1/3][π][r²][h]

Volume of cone = [1/3][3.14][5²][16]

Volume of cone = [1/3][3.14][25][16]

Volume of cone = [1/3][3.14][400]

Volume of cone = [1/3][1,256]

Volume of cone = 418.67 cm³ (Approx.)

Not sure if this is very clear
Patty = 45.8%
Bun = 20.8%
Cheese = 8.3%
Sauce = 12.5%
Pickles = 4.2%
Veggies = 8.3%

EXPLANATION :

The equation to find a percentage is part(the broken down calories) over whole ( the total calories) is equal to % which we replace with x (since we’re trying to find the %) over 100 because all percents are out of 100. So for simple terms, p/w = %/100.
What I did was put 550/1200 = x/100, cross multiply, leaving you with 1200x=55000, then divide 55000/1200, giving you 45.8.
