Answer:

1.57 gallons of water to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of minutes in a day = 24*60 minutes.

1 L = 0.26 gal

So 4.2 milliliters =   0.26 * 4.2 / 1000 gals.

So the number of gallons leaked in a day

= 24* 60 * (0.26*4.2) / 1000

= 1.572 gals.

suter [353]

Answer: (1) Distributive (2) Commutative (3) Associative

              (4) Commutative  (5) Addition Property of Equality

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1) Distributive

(x + 4) was multiplied by 3 and (2x - y) was multiplied by 5

2) Commutative

10x and -5y switched places

3) Associative

The parenthesis changed partners

4) Commutative

(12y - 5y) and 10x switched places

5) Addition Property

Like terms were added together --> 3x + 10x = 13x and 12y - 5y = 7y

FInd the solution for 4(x - 5)=2(x - 10) +2x
crimeas [40]
Hello!

You solve this like an algebraic equation

You first distribute the 4 and 2

4x - 20 = 2x - 20 + 2x

Combine like terms

4x - 20 = 4x - 20

subtract 4x from both sides

-20 = 0x - 20

Add 20 to both sides

0 = 0

This means that there are infinite solutions to the equation.

Hope this helps!

The volume of the shape below is 6 square units. Determine the volume of the shape in two different ways.
REY [17]

The volume of the shape is 6 cubic units

<h3>How to determine the volume of the shape?</h3>

<u>Method 1</u>

From the figure, we can see that:

  • There are 6 cubes in the figure
  • The dimensions of the cubes are equal
  • The volume of each cube is 1 cubic unit

So, the volume of the shape is

Volume = Number of cubes * Volume of each cube

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Volume = 6 * 1

Evaluate

Volume = 6

<u>Method 2</u>

From the figure, we can see that:

  • There are 6 cubes in the figure
  • 2 cubes at the top and 4 at the bottom
  • The dimensions of the cubes are equal
  • The volume of each cube is 1 cubic unit

So, the volume of the shape is

Volume = Top cubes +  Bottom cubes

This gives

Volume = 2 * Volume of each cube + 4 * Volume of each cube

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Volume = 2 * 1 + 4 * 1

Evaluate

Volume = 6

Hence, the volume of the shape is 6 cubic units

A cyclist rides her bike at a rate of 15 miles per hour. What is this rate in kilometers per hour? How many kilometers will the
Trava [24]

Answer:

1. 24 km/hour

2. 48 km

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mile = 1.6 km

cyclist = 15 miles/ hour

we want to multiply speed by something that will cancel miles out and leave km. to do this, we want to multiply it by something with miles on the bottom and km on the top.

this is because

miles * km / miles = km as the miles cancel out and km is left in the numerator

thus,

1 mile = 1.6 km

divide both sides by 1.6 km to get 1 on a side

1 mile / 1.6 km = 1

alternatively, divide both sides by 1 mile to get 1 on a side

1.6 km / 1 mile = 1

since we want miles on the bottom, we choose the second option

cyclist = 15 miles / hour = 15 miles/hour * 1 = 15 miles/hour * 1.6km / 1 mile = 24 km /hour

24 km/hr for 2 hours = 24 km/hr * 2 hours = 24 * 2 km = 48 km
