A unit rate in math is the single rate of which something is happening.

Ex: John buys 6 bags of peanuts for $4.56. How much did he pay for each bag. TO find this out you would divide 4.56/6=0.76

0.76 per bag.

Just an example

Hello!

A unit rate is the total cost for a single item.

Example: 10 dollars for 2 brooms (idk xD)

You would divide it. 10 ÷ 2 = 5

It would be 5 dollars for 1 broom

^ Unit rate

Hope this helps! Have a lovely day! ~Pooch ♥

A company is constructing an open-top, square-based, rectangular metal tank that will have a volume of 49 cubic feet. What dime

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

b = 4.6 ft

h = 2.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the tank is given by:

$b^2*h=49$

Where 'b' is the length of the each side of the square base, and 'h' is the height of the tank.

The surface area can be written as:

$A=b^2+4bh\\A=b^2+4b*({\frac{49}{b^2}})\\A=b^2+\frac{196}{b}$

The value of b for which the derivate of the expression above is zero is the value that yields the minimum surface area:

$\frac{dA}{db} =0=2b-\frac{196}{b^2}\\2b^3=196\\b=4.61\ ft$

The value of h is then:

$h=\frac{49}{4.61^2}\\h=2.31\ ft$

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the dimensions are b = 4.6 ft and h = 2.3 ft.

Solve for x. Round to two decimal places if necessary.

Alik [6]

Answer:

Length of JK is 68.27 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying geometric mean theorem (leg theorem) in the triangle attached,

$\frac{KL}{KM}= \frac{JK}{KL}$

(KL)² = (KM)(JK)

(32)² = (15)(x)

x = $\frac{1024}{15}$

x = 68.2666

x ≈ 68.27

Therefore, length of JK is 68.27 units.
