Answer:

About 13.45 miles ( rounded )

Step-by-step explanation:

You would use the pythagorean theorem to solve this. (a^{2}+ b^{2} = c^{2})

a^{2} would be one length of that triangle, we'll use 9.

b^{2} would be the other length of that triangle, we'll use 10.

So, now you have to square both of them.

9^{2} = 81 ( 9 x 9 )  10^{2} = 100 ( 10 x 10 )

Which you will get 81 and 100. Then you add those two numbers together.

100 + 81 = 181

Now that you have 181, you have to square root 181.

\sqrt{181}

With that you should get 13.45 miles. (rounded)

You’re solving for the volume of the cylinder. so the way you would do this is the area of the base of the cylinder (pi times radius squared) which in this case would be 3.14 x 10^2 which is 314. you would then multiply by h, the height, which here is 10. 314 x 10 is 3140.

3. A vehicle uses 15 gallons of gasoline to travel 13 miles. At this rate, how many miles can the
Tems11 [23]
1. Start by identifying what the question wants so we are looking for miles per 1 gallon.
2. Set up a statement. When the word “per” is being used it relates to a fraction or a ratio. In this question we need to find how many miles a single gallon will give us. So set it up as miles/gallons
3. Plug in your numbers. Now our statement is 13 miles/15 gallons
4. Calculate. So do 13/15 which equals 0.86 miles per 1 gallon.
Tip: always add in words into your calculations. Mainly the units you are using so you can quickly look and know what the units will be. This will help you in upper placement math as well

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

42 minutes is the median amount of time

Step-by-step explanation:

The Median is the middle value of data set.

If there is "odd" number of numbers, and there are n numbers, the median is:

(n/2) + 1 th  number

If there is "even" number of numbers, and there are n numbers, the median is:

Average of n/2th and (n/2) + 1 th number

Here, we have 5 numbers, so the median would be:

(5/2) + 1 th number

That is

3rd number

But, we need to arrange the numbers from least to greatest. Lets write it:

19, 23, 42, 56, 67

The third number is 42, this is the median
