Answer:
Using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,200 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 30 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,200 / 30
= 40 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.00 so the total cost is:
= 40 * 3
= $120
Without using the estimate:
The car has to go for 1,211 miles but it consumes a gallon of gasoline for every 29 miles. The number of gallons it will need is therefore:
= 1,211 / 29
= 41.76 gallons
Each gallon costs $3.40 so the total cost is:
= 41.76 * 3.40
= $141.98
<em>Using the estimate provides a lower cost of gasoline for the trip. </em>
Answer:
7 + 6
5 + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
the lengths of the two shorter sides of a triangle must add up to more than the length of the third side.
3 + 4 = 7 ≤ 8 no
7 + 6 = 13 > 12 yes
5 + 11 = 16 > 13 yes
4 + 6 = 10 ≤ 12 no
4 + 6 = 10 ≤ 10 no
20 cups
4 rows of 5 containing the 3 inch cups and 5 columns of 4 containing the 3 inch cups
Answer:
The answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between the mixed numbers is equal to 5/6.
<h3>How to perform the subtraction between the two mixed numbers?</h3>
A mixed number is a number that is written as a whole number plus an improper fraction, here we want to compute:
(2 + 1/2) - (1 + 2/3)
We can group the whole numbers and the fractions, so we get:
(2 - 1) + (1/2 - 2/3)
Now we can simplify this so we get:
(2 - 1) + (1/2 - 2/3)
= 1 + (3/6 - 4/6) = 1 - 1/6 = 6/6 - 1/6 = 5/6
We conclude that the difference between the mixed numbers is equal to 5/6.
