Answer:

5 5/8 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Martin can run 3 ¾ miles in 2/3 of an hour. Write a unit rate to describe the situation and explain the context.

We are asked to write the unit rate , this means we are to find out how many miles he can run per hour

Hence,

2/3 hour = 3 3/4 miles

1 hour = x

Cross Multiply

2/3 hour × x = 3 3/4 miles × 1 hour

x = 3 3/4 miles × 1 hour/ 2/3 hour

x = 3 3/4 ÷ 2/3

x = 15/4 ÷ 2/3

x = 15/4 × 3/2

x = 45/8

x = 5 5/8 miles per hour

Answer:

V = 120.6796

LA = 110.8513

SA = 174.8513

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me know if you need more of an explanation for any of these

First we need the height, one way to find that out is to use the diagonal of the and one of the diagonal edges of the pyramid. Specifically we will need half of the diagonal of the square. We will call the diagonal of the square d.

$8^2+8^2=d^2\\d=\sqrt{64+64} \\d=\sqrt{128}$

Gonna leave it like that for ease of writing. So then half of the diagonal is $\frac{\sqrt{128}}{2}$

The height, h, will be $(\frac{d}{2})^2+h^2 = 8^2$ . Plugging everything in gets us $h=\sqrt{32}$

last, we need to find slant height, which we will call s.

$(\frac{8}{2})^2+h^2 = s^2\\s=\sqrt{48}$

s is also the height of the triangles for purposes of finding area. Now for the volume and areas.

Volume is area of the base times height divided by 3, so $V=8^2\frac{\sqrt{32} }{3} = \frac{64\sqrt{48} }{3} = 120.6796$

Lateral area is the sum of the four areas of the triangles, and each of those are $\frac{8*h}{2}$ so the whole lateral area is 4 times that. So we get $4\frac{8\sqrt{32} }{2} =110.8513$

Total surface area is the lateral surface area + the area of the base, so 110.8513 + 64 = 174.8513

Helpppppppppppppp meeee!!!!

The answer is 10 days

(after 4 days, they still needed to install 360 chairs, 600-360=240 - meaning they installed 240 chairs in 4 days. to find out how many chairs they installed in 1 day, divide 240 by 4 and you find they installed 60 chairs per day. Then divide 360 by 60 to find the remaining days needed to install the rest of the chairs, which is 6 days then add it onto the 4 days already completed)
