Answer:

3.8 ; 3.79 ; 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1 gallon is equal to about 3.785 litres

3.785 to the nearest tenth :

Tenth digit = 7 ; round up 8 to 1 and add to 7

Hence,

3.785 = 3.8 (nearest tenth)

3.785 to the nearest hundredth :

Hundredth digit = 8 ; round up next digit 5 to 1 and add to 8

3.785 = 3.79 ( nearest hundredth)

What is the greatest number of whole liters of water you could pour into a one-gallon container without it overflowing?

The greatest Number of whole liters of water that could be poured into a 1 gallon container without it overflowing is 3 liters because, rounding up 3.785 to the nearest integer of 4 means we will exceed the maximum litres by about 0.215 gallons and hence, cause the container to overflow.

6. A coupon offers $1.00 off the 16-ounce size. Which size is the better<br><br> buy then?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Both sizes are better because they cost Same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A coupon offers $1.00 off the 16

            Quantity     Price

Pint           16           $3.98

Quart        32           $5.98

If he gets $1 off for the 16-ounce size. The price will be:

3.98-1=2.98

He needs to pay $2.98 for 16-ounce pint.

Now find which one is better by calculating the unit rate.

\frac{Cost}{weight}=\frac{2.98 }{16}\approx0.186

Therefore, the cost of 1lb would be $0.186

For Quart 32 find the unit rate as shown:

\frac{Cost}{weight}=\frac{5.98}{32}\approx0.186

Therefore, the cost of 1lb would be $0.186

Hence, both of the size are better as the unit rate is same.

Line segment 19 units long running from (x,0) ti (0, y) show the area of the triangle enclosed by the segment is largest when x=
Debora [2.8K]
The area of the triangle is

A = (xy)/2

Also,

sqrt(x^2 + y^2) = 19

We solve this for y.

x^2 + y^2 = 361

y^2 = 361 - x^2

y = sqrt(361 - x^2)

Now we substitute this expression for y in the area equation.

A = (1/2)(x)(sqrt(361 - x^2))

A = (1/2)(x)(361 - x^2)^(1/2)

We take the derivative of A with respect to x.

dA/dx = (1/2)[(x) * d/dx(361 - x^2)^(1/2) + (361 - x^2)^(1/2)]

dA/dx = (1/2)[(x) * (1/2)(361 - x^2)^(-1/2)(-2x) + (361 - x^2)^(1/2)]

dA/dx = (1/2)[(361 - x^2)^(-1/2)(-x^2) + (361 - x^2)^(1/2)]

dA/dx = (1/2)[(-x^2)/(361 - x^2)^(1/2) + (361 - x^2)/(361 - x^2)^(1/2)]

dA/dx = (1/2)[(-x^2 - x^2 + 361)/(361 - x^2)^(1/2)]

dA/dx = (-2x^2 + 361)/[2(361 - x^2)^(1/2)]

Now we set the derivative equal to zero.

(-2x^2 + 361)/[2(361 - x^2)^(1/2)] = 0

-2x^2 + 361 = 0

-2x^2 = -361

2x^2 = 361

x^2 = 361/2

x = 19/sqrt(2)

x^2 + y^2 = 361

(19/sqrt(2))^2 + y^2 = 361

361/2 + y^2 = 361

y^2 = 361/2

y = 19/sqrt(2)

We have maximum area at x = 19/sqrt(2) and y = 19/sqrt(2), or when x = y.
