Answer:

34.22 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

A car averages 28.5 miles per gallon of gasoline

How many liters of gasoline will be needed for a trip of 415 km

let us convert 415km to miles first

1 km is 0.621371 miles

415km is x miles

cross multiply we have

x= 415*0.621371

x=257.86 miles

Step two:

if 1 gallon of gasoline will cover 28.5 miles

the x gallons will cover 257.86 miles

cross multiply we have

28.5x= 257.86

divide both sides by 28.5

x= 257.86/28.5

x=9.04 gallons

Step three:

let us convert gallons to liters

1 gallon is 3.78541 liters

9.04 gallons will be x liters

cross multiply we have

x=9.04*3.78541

x= 34.22 liters

From a square piece of cardboard paper of area size 9 m2 , squares of the same size are cut off from each corner of the paper. T
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Max vol = 2 cubic metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that from a square piece of cardboard paper of area size 9 m2 , squares of the same size are cut off from each corner of the paper.

Side of the square = 3m

If squares are to be cut from the corners of the cardboard we have the dimensions of the box as

3-2x, 3-2x and x.

Hence x can never be greater than or equal to 1.5

V(x) = Volume = V(x) = x(3-2x)^2\\= 9x+4x^3-12x^2

We use derivative test to find the maxima

V'(x) = 9+12x^2-24x\\V"(x) = 24x-24\\

Equate I derivative to 0

9+12x^2-24x=0\\x=1/2,3/2

If x= 3/2 box will have 0 volume

So this is ignored

V"(1/2) <0

So maximum when x =1/2

Maximum volume

=9(1/2)+4(1/2)^3-12(1/2)^2\\=2 cubic metres

Pls help due tomorrow just numbers 7 - 12
Luden [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7). 5.75% = \frac{5.75}{100} = \frac{575}{10000} = \frac{23}{400}

10). 16\frac{2}{3} % = \frac{50}{3} % = \frac{50}{300} = \frac{1}{6}

12). 79\frac{5}{6} % = \frac{479}{6} % = \frac{479}{600}

Now is you turn. You can do it!

five consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence have a sum of 40. The product of the middle and the two end terms is 224. Find
ratelena [41]
Let the five terms be: a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, a + 4d, then
a + a + d + a + 2d + a + 3d + a + 4d = 5a + 15d = 40
i.e. a + 3d = 8
Also, (a + 2d)(a + 3d)(a + 4d) = 224
(a + 3d - d)(a + 3d)(a + 3d + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8)(8 + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8 + d) = 224/8 = 28
64 - d^2 = 28
d^2 = 64 - 28 = 36
d = sqrt(36) = 6
But a + 3d = 8
a + 3(6) = 8
a = 8 - 18 = -10

Therefore, the term of the sequence is: -10, -10 + 6, -10 + 2(6), -10 + 3(6), -10 + 4(6)
= -10, -4, -10 + 12, -10 + 18, -10 + 24
= -10, -4, 2, 8, 14
