Ellen drove 357.9 miles. Her car gets about 21 miles per gallon. Which is the best estimate of how many gallons of gas Ellen use

olga55 [171]

The best thing to do is to divide the amount she has driven (357.9) by the miles (21)
As you're looking for an estimate, you have to round them.
357.9 rounds to 360
21 rounds to 20
Therefore, you've got to divide them
360/20= 18
Therefore, Ellen has driven approximately 18 miles
Hope this helps :)

Anyone know how to do area or volume? Any help will do! thanks

Answer:

Volume: x(x+6)(x+2) Area: $x^{2}$ + 8x +12

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume Explanation:

To find the volume of a 3d figure, we must multiply the length, width, and the height. Therefore we multiply (x)(x+6)(x+2)= $x^{3}$ + 8 $x^{2}$ + 12x. Simplify this equation and we will get x(x+6)(x+2) for the formula to find the volume of the 3D figure.

Area:

To find the area of a 2D figure, we must multiply length x height. Therefore, we multiply the equations (x+6)(x+2)= $x^{2} + 2x + 6x +12$ to get a final answer of $x^{2} +8x +12$ . This will be the formula when you find the area of the 2D figure in question.
