Answer:

Ronnie walked the shortest distance by (365 - 262.15 ) = 102.85 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The image attached represent the rectangular park. In this case, the dimensions are;

AB = CD = 215 ft

AC = BD = 150 ft

Total distance walked by Ross = AB + BD = 215 + 150 = 365 ft

Distance walked by Ronnie = AD

∠ABD = right angle triangle, using pythagoras rules;

AD² = AB² + BD²

AD² = 215² + 150²

AD² = 68725

AD = √68725

AD = 262.15 ft

Distance walked by Ronnie = 262.15 ft

Ronnie walked the shortest distance by (365 - 262.15 ) = 102.85 ft

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with the dimensions: base 3 1 2 cm, height 1 1 2 cm, and length 5 1 2 cm?
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The volume of a rectangular prism is 28\frac{7}{8}\ cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the rectangular prism is equal to

V=BHL

Convert the given dimensions to an improper fractions

B=3\frac{1}{2}\ cm=\frac{3*2+1}{2}=\frac{7}{2}\ cm

H=1\frac{1}{2}\ cm=\frac{1*2+1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\ cm

L=5\frac{1}{2}\ cm=\frac{5*2+1}{2}=\frac{11}{2}\ cm

substitute in the formula

V=(\frac{7}{2})(\frac{3}{2})(\frac{11}{2})=\frac{231}{8}\ cm^{3}

Convert to mixed number

\frac{231}{8}=\frac{224}{8}+\frac{7}{8}=28\frac{7}{8}\ cm^{3}

What is the constant of proportionality in the table below?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:  \dfrac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of proportionality 'k' between two variables ( one independent and one dependent ) is given by :-

k=\dfrac{\text{Value of dependent variable}}{\text{Value of independent variable}}

In the given table, independent variable = Days

Dependent variable = Total Miles

From first row,  Days = 3

Total Miles = 1\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{6}{5}

Then, the constant of proportionality in the table

k=\dfrac{\dfrac{6}{5}}{3}=\dfrac{6}{5\times3}=\dfrac{2}{5}

Hence, the constant of proportionality in the table is \dfrac{2}{5} .
