Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem above is related to the topic on "Equivalent Ratios." The missing term above is <em>"the number of miles that the vehicle can travel per gallon of gasoline."</em> In order to find this term, you have to use the "cross products."

Let n be the missing term.

  • 1\frac{1}{8} gallons/13\frac{1}{2} miles = \frac{1 gallon}{n}
  • \frac{9}{8} gallons/\frac{27}{2} miles = \frac{1 gallon}{n}
  • \frac{9}{8} x n = \frac{27}{2} x 1 gallon
  • n = \frac{27}{2} ÷ \frac{9}{8}
  • n = \frac{27}{2} x \frac{8}{9}
  • n = 12 miles

Therefore, the vehicle can travel 12 miles per gallon of gasoline.

The US standard can is 4.83 inches high, 2.13 inches in diameter at the lid, and 2.60 inches in diameter at the widest point of
rewona [7]
The first thing we must do for this case is to calculate the volume of the can using the largest diameter:
 V = pi * ((d / 2) ^ 2) * (h)
 Where,
 h: height
 d: diameter.
 Calculating we have:
 V = pi * ((2.60 / 2) ^ 2) * (4.83) = 25.64 in ^ 3
 Then, to determine the amount of liquid in millimeters, we can use a simple rule of three:
 1 in ^ 3 ---> 16.3891 milliliters
 25.64 in ^ 3 ---> x
 Clearing x we have:
 x = ((25.64) / (1)) * (16.3891) = 420.22 mm
 answer
 The amount of liquid that has been bottled in milliliters is 420.22 mm
