<h3>Answer: Choice D.  12,600 feet</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

We have two similar triangles here, so we can set up the proportion below to solve for x

5200/(5200+6500) = 5600/x

5200/11700 = 5600/x

5200x = 11700*5600 .... cross multiply

5200x = 65,520,000

x = (65,520,000)/(5200)

x = 12,600 which shows why the answer is choice D

side note: 12,600 ft = 2.386 miles approximately

The volume of a cylindrical soup can is represented by the expression πr3 + 7πr2, where r is the radius of the cylinder. Which s
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the volume of the cylindrical soup expressed as V = πr³+ 7πr²

From V = πr³ + 7πr²;

factor out the common variable

V = πr³ + 7πr²

V = πr²(r+7) ... 1

The original volume of a cylinder V =  πr²h .... 2 where;

r is the radius of the cylinder

h is the height of the cylinder

Equating equation 1 and 2, we will have;

πr²(r+7)  =  πr²h

Divide both sides by  πr²

πr²(r+7)/ πr² = πr²h/ πr²

r+7 = h

h = r+7

<em>Hence the factor in the context given is equivalent to the height of the cylinder written as a function of its radius r</em>.<em> The statement means that the height of the cylindrical soup is 7 more than its radius.</em>

The formula for determining the pressure, p, exerted on an object at a depth, h, below the surface of a liquid is p = s + dgh, where s is the atmospheric pressure, d is the density of the liquid, and gas the acceleration due to gravity.

p = s + dgh

dgh = p - s

h = (p - s)/dg

Which formula represents h in terms of p, s, d, and g? Formula B is correct.

The weight of a full steel bead tire is approximately 800
AleksAgata [21]

Answer: 1.76

1.54

Step-by-step explanation:

we have to divide 800 by 453.592, and the result is 1.763699... rounding it: 1.76

now we do the same for 700 :

700 divided by 453.592 is 1.5432... so rounding it down: 1.54

A playground is shaped like a rectangle with a width 5 times it’s length. What is the simplified expression for the distance bet
Bad White [126]
Width:  W
length: L = 5W

Use the Pyth. Theorem to find the length of the diagonal:

|D| = sqrt(W^2 + [5W]^2) = sqrt(W^2 + 25W^2) = sqrt(26W^2), or 

                                                                            Wsqrt(26)   (ans.)
