Answer:

1.33 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of any shape is given by cross sectional area multiplied by height. Therefore, V=Ah

Where A is area and h is height

Since their cross sections are the same, then volume depends on height.

If 12cm equals 2 liters

8cm equals x

X=(2*8)/12=1.3333333333333 liters

Approximayely, the smaller pail has capacity of 1.33 liters

Si el largo de un rectángulo mide el doble del ancho que es "a", ¿cuál es su área?

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

El área es 2 veces el cuadrado del ancho del rectángulo.

Step-by-step explanation:

El área de un rectángulo viene dado por:

$A = a*l$

En donde:

a: es el ancho

l: es el largo

Si el largo es el doble del ancho:

$l = 2a$

Entonces el área es:

$A = a*l = a*(2a) = 2a^{2}$

Por lo tanto, el área es 2 veces el cuadrado del ancho del rectángulo.

HELPPPP PLZZ ND THANK YOU SOO MUCH

Answer:

50, 40, 30, 250, 350

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 = 0.5, 0.5 x 100 = 50 (0.5 -> 5 -> 50)

2/5 = 0.4 (10 / 5 [the denominator] = 2, 0.2 x 2 [the numerator] = 0.4), 0.4 x 100 = 40 (0.4 -> 4 -> 40)

3/10 = (10 / 10 [the denominator] = 1, 0.1 x 3 [the numerator] = 0.3), 0.3 x 100 = 30 (0.3 -> 3 -> 30)

5/2 = 2.5 (2 1/2), 2.5 x 100 = 250 (2.5 -> 25 -> 250)

7/2 = 3.5 (3 1/2), 3.5 x 100 = 350 (3.5 -> 35 -> 350)

Note: I'm not sure if I understand the question completely, but I changed the fraction into a decimal and multiplied it by 100. Not sure what it means by "Divide fraction".

Elise walks diagonally from one corner of a square plaza to another. Each side of the plaza is 50 meters. What is the diagonal d

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

70.7 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Elise walks diagonally from one corner of a square plaza to another. Each side of the plaza is 50 meters.

Since we know that diagonal of a square is product of side length of square and $\sqrt{2}$ . So we will find diagonal of our given square plaza by multiplying 50 by $\sqrt{2}$ .
