This is the concept of arithmetic:
Given that Carol ran a total 1 3/4 miles for 5 days last week, the total distance covered was:
Total distance=(distance per day)×(total number of days)
=1 3/4×5
=7/4×5
=35/4
=8 3/4 miles
Total distance ran this week is:
Total distance=(2 1/4×4)
=9/4x4
=9 miles
therefore we conclude that the distance covered this week was greater than the distance covered last week.

b] this distance was greater by:
difference=(distance covered this week)-(distance covered last week)
=9-35/4
=(36-35)/4
=1/4
the answer is 1/4 miles

An oil tank is leaking into a lake at a rate of 0.1 m3/day. The oil slick forms a semicircular disk whose center is at the leak
gregori [183]

Answer:

17.9  m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the slick =  0.5 x π r² h--------------------------------- (1)

Where r = radius of slick

           h = thickness of slick, 10⁻⁶m

If 0.5m³ of oil leaked, then the radius of the semicircular slick can be calculated from equation (1)

V  =  0.5 x π r² h

0.5=  0.5 x  π x  r² x 10⁻⁶

r²   =  10⁶/ π

r =     10³/√π

dV/dt =   πrh dr/dt  + 0.5π r² dh/dt----------------------------------- (2)

Asumming the film thickness is constant , equation (2) becomes

dV/dt =   πrh dr/dt-------------------------------- (3)

dV/dt = 0.1m³/day

r=  10³/√π

dr/dt= rate of expansion of the slick

Substituting  into (3);

0.1 =  π x 10³/√π x 10⁻⁶ x dr/dt

dr/dt = 0.1  x 10⁶/ ( π x 10³/√π)

       =  17.9479 m/s

       ≅  17.9  m/s

A state park has two pools. The olympic size pool holds 8.12 x 10^5 gallons of water and the smaller pool holds 5.27 x 10^5 gall
Ainat [17]

B) 1.339 x 10^6 gallons. When you add 812,000 to 527,000 you get 1,339,000, and to write that in scientific notation you need to make the number less than 10 and more than 1, which is 1.339 and to get the 1,339,000 you need to multiply 1.339 by 10^6.
