Answer:

28 square metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the total surface area of the glass covered part of the rectangular aquarium

Surface area = 2(4 × 2) + 2(3 × 2)

= 16 + 12

Protective film needed = 28 square metres

Answer: Area of protective film would be 28 m².

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimensions of front and back of the aquarium is given by

4 meters by 2 meters

Dimensions of sides of the aquarium is given by

3 meters by 2 meters.

So, Area of protective film he needed is given by

$2(4\times 2)+2(3\times 2)\\\\=2\times 8+2\times 6\\\\=16+12\\\\=28\ m^2$

Hence, Area of protective film would be 28 m².

Ray has found that his new car gets 31 miles per gallon on the highwayand 26 miles per gallon in the city. He recently drove 285

Mkey [24]

Answer:

$Highway = 155\ miles$

$City = 130\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Highway = 31mi/gallon$

$City = 26mi/gallon$

$Total\ Miles = 285$

$Total\ Gallons = 10$

Required

Determine the number of miles driven on the highway and on the city

Represent the gallons used on highway with h and on city with c.

So, we have:

$c + h = 10$ ---- gallons used

and

$31h + 26c = 285$ --- distance travelled

In the first equation, make c the subject

$c = 10 - h$

Substitute 10 - h for c in the second equation

$31h + 26c = 285$

$31h + 26(10 - h) = 285$

Open bracket

$31h + 260 - 26h = 285$

Collect like terms

$31h - 26h = 285 - 260$

$5h = 25$

Make h the subject

$h = \frac{25}{5}$

$h = 5$

Substitute 5 for h in $c = 10 - h$

$c = 10 - 5$

$c = 5$

If on the highway, he travels 31 miles per gallon, then his distance on the highway is:

$Highway = 31 * 5$

$Highway = 155\ miles$

If in the highway, he travels 26 miles per gallon, then his distance on the highway is:

$City = 26 * 5$

$City = 130\ miles$
