Leokris [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The enormous sinkhole that appeared in the middle of Guatemalan neighborhood in the year 2010  swallowed a three story building above it and the  sinkhole has an estimated depth of about 100 feet

How much material is needed to fill the sinkhole?

Then , the material needed to fill the sinkhole will be dependent on the volume of the sinkhole.

Determine what information is needed to answer the question.

The information that is needed to answer this question are:

the base area of the sinkhole will be required; &

the height should also be known

if the base area is determined then we can proceed to determine how much material is needed to be calculated.

Do you think your estimate is more likely to be too high or too low

No, the estimate is not likely to be too high or too low rather the estimate of the material required will be almost  equal to the volume of the sinkhole, but that does not implies that it will be exactly the same since the sinkhole is not uniform and regular in shape.

Superman needs to save Lois from the clutches of Lex Luthor. After flying for 6 seconds, he is 2430 meters from her. Then at 12
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

2700.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance would be 2700.

Distance traveled between in 6th second and 12th second is 2430-2160=270 meter. That means Superman covered 270 meter in 6 seconds.

So, now if he is moving at the same speed, he should cover the same distance in first 6 seconds which is 270 meter.

Suppose the whole distance is X when time is 0, and after flying for 6 seconds he now is 2430 meter away. It means that he must have covered the distance of X-2430=270.

Finding for X, we gets the full initial distance, when time was 0.

The simple trick is, once we get the distance he has covered in 6 seconds, we can form the equation like subtracting the whole distance- remaining distance equals to covered distance.
