The correct answer would be, Jeremy rides at a greater speed than Kevin.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jeremy rides at a rate of 15 miles per hour

Kevin rides at a rate given in the table

Let Y be the distance traveled by Jeremy

And X be the number of hours

Then for Jeremy:

y/x = 15/1

=> y= 15 x

For Kevin:  

(46-23)/(4-2)

= 23/2

= 11.5

So for Kevin, Y = 11.5 x

So when Jeremy's and Kevin's rates are compared,

15 > 11.5

which means Jeremy rides at a greater speed.

Berto has $12 to put gas in his car. If gas costs $3.75 per gallon,which ordered pair raw laying number of gallons of gas, x,to
muminat

Answer:

Amount of gas = 3.2 gallons

Required coordinate pair is (3.2, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of gallon of gas.

Given:

Berto has ⇒ y = $12

Gas cost per gallon ⇒ $3.75

Solution:

Using below formula.

Number of gallon of gas = \frac{Total\ cost}{Gas\ cost\ per\ gallon}

Now, we substitute total cost and gas cost per gallon.

x=\frac{12}{3.75}

x=3.2\ gallon\ of\ gas

Therefore, Berto can buy 3.2 gallon of gas and required coordinate pair is (3.2, 12).

Complete the following proof. Given: Points R, S, T, Q on circle O Prove: m\overarc RS + m\overarc ST + m\overarc TQ + m\overarc
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

360°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

R, S, T and Q are the points on a circle O.

Since, "measure of an arc of a circle is equal to the measure of the angle subtended by the arc at the center."

By this statement,

m(\widehat{RS})=m(\angle ROS)

m(\widehat{ST})=m(\angle SOT)

m(\widehat{TQ})=m(\angle TOQ)

m(major arc RQ) = m(∠QOR)

Now m(\widehat {RS})+m(\widehat{ST})+m(\widehat{TQ}) + m(major arc RQ) = m(\angle ROS)+m(\angle SOT)+m(\angle TOQ)+m(\angle QOR)

Since sum of all angles at a point = 360°

m(\widehat {RS})+m(\widehat{ST})+m(\widehat{TQ}) + m(major arc RQ) = 360°

A cubical container is 3/4 filled with water. It contains 4.374l of water. Find the base area of the container.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The base area is 3.24 dm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total volume of the cube be x l

3/4 of this is 4.374 l

Thus, we have it that;

3/4 * x = 4.374

3x = 4 * 4.374

x = (4 * 4.374)/3

x = 5.832 L

The volume of a cube is the length of its side raised to the power of 3

Let us have the length as y

so;

y^3 = 5.832

y = cube root of 5.832

y = 1.8 dm

The area of the base is simply the side length raised to the power of 2

we have this as:

1.8 * 1.8 = 3.24 dm^2
