Answer:

The mean rate of the racer is 153.8 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

It took a race car driver 3 hours and 15 minutes to go 500 miles.

Now converting 3 hours and 15 minutes to hours.

15 minutes = \frac{15}{60}= 0.25 hours

Now, we have that it took a race car driver 3.25 hours to go 500 miles.

So, the average speed will be = \frac{500}{3.25}=153.8 mph

Hence, the mean rate of the racer is 153.8 mph.

3 x 60 (because there are 60 minutes in an hour) = 180. then 180 + 15 = 195. 500 / 195 = 2.6 miles per minute. 2.5 x 60 since its asking for miles per hour, is 156. he goes 156 miles per hour.

Find the volume of the cylinder in terms of π.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Hello There!

The volume for a cylinder is Pi*r^2*h

We are going to leave our Answer in terms of pi so first we need to square our radius which we know is 5

Our radius is 25 because we squared 5. Next, we need to multiply 25 by our height which is 11.

25 multiplied by 11 is 275 so our Answer would be 275\pi

The second side of a triangular deck is 3 feet longer than the shortest​ side, and the third side is 3 feet shorter than twice t
neonofarm [45]

Answer: the lengths are 20 feet, 23 feet and 37 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of the shorter side of the triangular deck.

The second side of a triangular deck is 3 feet longer than the shortest​ side. This means that the length of the second side is (x + 3) feet.

The third side is 3 feet shorter than twice the length of the shortest side. This means that the length of the third of the triangle is (2x - 3) feet.

If the perimeter of the deck is 80 ​feet, it means that

x + x + 3 + 2x - 3 = 80

4x = 80

x = 80/4

x = 20

The length of the second side is

20 + 3 = 23 feet

The length of the third side is

20 × 2 - 3 = 40 - 3 = 37 feet
