Mathematics
1 answer:
Gelneren [198K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

it depends

Step-by-step explanation:

If 17 is the hypotenuse

c=17\\\\b=12\\\\a=?\\\\c^{2} =a^2+b^2\\\\17^2=a^2+12^2\\\\17^2-12^2=a^2\\\\(17-12)(17+12)=a^2\\\\5(27)=a^2\\\\a=\sqrt{9*3*5} \\\\a=3\sqrt{15} \\\\a=11.6

if you are looking for the hypotenuse

a=17\\\\b=12\\\\c=?\\\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\17^2+12^2=c^2\\\\289+144=c^2\\\\433=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{433} \\\\c=20.8

En un pozo petrolìfero produce cada dia 2680 barriles de petroleo. Si cada barril contiene 159 litros de petroleo, cuantos litro
Aliun [14]

Answer:

426,120 litros se producen en un día Se producen

12,783,600 litros por mes (para un cálculo de 30 días en un mes)

Step-by-step explanation:

Aquí, debemos calcular la cantidad en litros de petróleo producido en un pozo petrolero.

Se nos dice que se producen 2.680 barriles por día y cada barril contiene 159 litros de petróleo.

La producción diaria en litros es, por lo tanto, de 159 * 2680 = 426,120 litros.

Ahora, para la producción mensual, supongamos que hay 30 días en un mes, la cantidad en litros producidos por mes sería la cantidad diaria multiplicada por la cantidad de días en un mes.

Matemáticamente, eso sería 30 * 426,120 = 12,783,600 litros
