Answer:

The answer to your question is: 30 miles can the car travel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

gasoline used = 11 1/2 gal

distance = 345 mile-trip

distance travel with 1 gal = ?

Process

Convert 11 1/2 to a improper fraction 11 1/2 = 23/2

Rule of three

23/2 gal ----------------------- 345 miles

1 gal ---------------------- x

x = (1 x 345) / 23/2

x = 345 / 23/2

x = 690/ 23

x = 30 miles

Answer:

y = root under 24 (evaluate it if necessary)

or y = 2 root 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the reference angle be x

for the triangle in left,

b = 6-4 = 2

Now,

taking x as refrence angle,

cosx = b/h

or, cosx = 2/h

again,

for the bigger triangle,

taking x as reference angle,

cosx = b/h

or, cosx = b/6

As we can see base of bigger triangle is equal to hypotenuse of triangle at the left,

Let's suppose its a

so, cosx = a/6 = 2/a

now,

a/6 = 2/a

or, a² = 12

now,

for bigger triangle, using pythagoras theorem,

h² = p²+b²

or, 6² = y² + a²

or, 36 = y² + 12

or, y² = 24

so, y = root under 24

The function H(t) = −16t^2 + 112t + 24 shows the height H(t), in feet, of a cannon ball after t seconds. A second cannon ball mo

raketka [301]

Answer:

see the attachment for a table

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The table is shown in the attachment. The solution to h(t) = g(t) is at a value of t that lies between 6 and 7. At t=6, h(t) > g(t). At t=7, h(t) < g(t). Since both functions are continuous, they must have equal values somewhere between t=6 and t=7. (Intermediate value theorem.)

B. The solution means the cannon balls will have the same height at a value of t between 6 and 7.

The sum of two numbers is 27. The larger number is 6 more than twice the smaller number. What are the numbers?

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Let the smaller number be x

Then the sum is

(6 + 2x) + x = 27

We now find for x

2x + x + 6 = 27

3x + 6 = 27

3x = 27-6

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

Therefore the smaller number is 7

The larger number is (2×7) + 6 = 20
