5 gallons is 0.66 cubic feet, 0.5 cubic feet per container.
The answer is 3,926,780 when you times 11 to 3,56980
Answer:
2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
For a kayak speed of k miles per hour in still water, the speed upstream is (k-2) and the speed downstream is (k+2). Over the distances given, the times are the same, so we can write ...
10/(k-2) = 14/(k+2)
Multiplying by (k+2)(k-2) gives ...
10(k+2) = 14(k -2)
10k +20 = 14k -28 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
48 = 4k . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 28-10k
12 = k
Then the time for 28 miles downstream is ...
time = 28 / (12 +2) = 2 . . . . hours
It will take the person 2 hours to kayak 28 miles downstream.

Answer:
17 ft, 27 ft, 20 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the length of the shortest side. The the longest side is (2s-7) and the third side is (s+3). The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths:
64 = s +(2s -7) +(s +3)
64 = 4s -4 . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
16 = s -1 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
17 = s . . . . . . . . . add 1
2s -7 = 2·17 -7 = 27 . . . . . the length of the longest side
s +3 = 17 +3 = 20 . . . . . . . the length of the third side
The side lengths are 17 feet, 27 feet, and 20 feet.
