Answer:

23.88 miles/gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Total distance covered by car = 430 miles

Total gallons used by car = 18 gallons

Miles per gallons = ?

Solution:

Miles per gallon car does = Total distance covered by car/Total gallons used by car

By putting values in above formula:

Miles per gallon car does = 430 miles/18 gallons

= 23.88888 miles/gallon

What does it equal? Because I'm really confused

It equals to 3/13
this is easy to solve because the denominator is already the same. all you'll need to do is add the the numerators:
2+1=3
and your answer will be 3/13

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem:

$leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2\to a^2+b^2=c^2$

$41.\\\\a=1,\ b=1,\ c=x\\\\x^2=1^2+1^2\\\\x^2=1+1\\\\x^2=2\to x=\sqrt2$

$42.\\a=1, b=2,\ c=x\\\\x^2=1^2+2^2\\\\x^2=1+4\\\\x^2=5\to x=\sqrt5$

$43.\\a=3,\ b=x,\ c=5\\\\3^2+x^2=5^2\\\\9+x^2=25\qquad\text{subtract 9 from both sides}\\\\x^2=16\to x=\sqrt{16}\to x=4$

$44.\\\\a=4,\ b=x,\ c=8\\\\4^2+x^2=8^2\\\\16+x^2=64\qquad\text{subtract 16 from both sides}\\\\x^2=48\to x=\sqrt{48}\\\\x=\sqrt{16\cdot3}\qquad\text{use}\ \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\\\\x=\sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt3\\\\x=4\sqrt3$
