Look at the picture.

We have the right triangle x, y and r. From the Pythagorean theorem we have:

We have the point

Substitute:


Using proportions, it is found that:
- Peter is walking at a rate of 3 km/h.
- MJ is biking at a rate of 9 km/h.
---------------------------
- Peter is walking at a rate of x km/h.
- MJ is biking 6 km/h faster than Peter, thus 6 + x km/h.
- Opposite directions, thus, their distance increases at a rate of (6 + 2x) km each hour, as
.
6 + 2x km each hour, 18 km after 1.5 hours, thus, the rule of three is:
1h - (6 + 2x) km
1.5h - 18 km
Applying cross multiplication:






Then:
- Peter is walking at a rate of 3 km/h.
- MJ is biking at a rate of 9 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:
25-x=3 (1/2)
you just subtract 25 by 3 (1/2), and you get 21 (1/2).

Answer:
-4.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the diameter:
Diameter = √(19.3^2 - 9.5^2)
Diameter = √(372.49 - 90.25)
Diameter = √282.24
Diameter = 16.8 m
Volume of a cylinder = PI x r^2 x h
r = 1/2 diameter = 16.8 /2 = 8.4
h = 9.5 m
Volume = PI x 8.4^2 x 9.5
= PI x 70.56 x 9.5
= PI x 670.32
In terms of PI volume = 670.32PI
As a decimal:
670.32 x 3.14 = 2104.8048 = 2100m^3 ( rounded to the nearest hundred)
