Answer:

The generator will run for 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the volume of the gas tank that is on the generator. I am told that the gas tank is a rectangular prism that has the dimensions of 20 cm, 15 cm, and 10cm.

Area of any prism = height * width * length

Area of prism = 20 cm * 15 cm * 10 cm = 3,000 cm cubed

I am told the important info that <u>1,000 cm cubed = 1 liter </u>

Therefore, 3,000 cm cubed = 3 liters

I am also told that the generator will run for 2 hours on 1 liter of gas

Lets make a ratio table:

Hours the generator will run for : liters of gas

                                                   2 : 1

                                                   6 : 3

the generator will run for 6 hours.

Artemon [7]
Short answer:
TotalCost = 12.96


Long answer:

It gives you the equation of

total cost = C + 0.08C

You just need to plug-in the $12 to the equation.
In other words, the equation is:
TotalCost = 12 + 0.08*12
TotalCost = 12 + 0.96
TotalCost = 12.96

A train leaves at 11:32 and arrives at 13:24. It travelled at an average speed of 85 km/h.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

<h2>33.2Km</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Time used for journey = </h3>

13 : 24 - 11 : 32 = 1 : 92

1 : 92 = 1 hour 92 minutes

1 hour 92 minutes = 2 hours 32 minutes

<h3>changing 32 minutes to hours</h3>

1 h = 60 min

x = 32 min

x= 32 /60

x= 8/15 hours

<h3>Adding the 2hours to 8/15 hours</h3>

8/15 h + 2 h = 38 / 15

<h3>Using formula for distance</h3>

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 85km / h × 38 /15 h

Distance = 33.15 km

To 1DP = 33.2
