Answer:
x =20.8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the value of 1/2 of x using the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 6^2 = 12^2
a^2 = 36+144
a^2 = 108
Take the square root
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt( 108)
a =sqrt(36*3)
a = sqrt(36) sqrt(3)
a = 6sqrt(3)
Now x = 2 times the length of a
x = 2 * 6 sqrt(3)
x = 12 sqrt(3)
x =20.78460969
x =20.8
3.2 m is converted to 320 cm
Amount of fuel in the tank before the story begins . . . . . zero.
Total amount poured in . . . . . 3/4 gallon.
Total amount burned:
on Friday . . . . . 1/4 gallon
on Sunday . . . . 1/4 gallon
Total used . . 1/2 gallon .
Amount remaining in the tank on Monday:
(3/4 gallon in) - (1/2 gallon burned) = 1/4 gallon left.
==> NOT empty
The tank would have been empty on Monday IF Becky
had poured in only 1/2 gallon, instead of 3/4 of a gallon
before the first flakes began to fly.
