Mathematics
1 answer:
polet [3.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A car is more fuel efficient and it goes 30 miles per gallon (5/12 gallon to travel 12 1/2 miles)

Step-by-step explanation:

A car : 5/12 gallon to travel 12 1/2 miles

(12 1/2) / (5/12) =

(25/2) / (5/12) =

25/2 * 12/5 =

150/5 =

30 miles per gallon

B car : 5/7 gallon to travel 20 5/7 miles

(20 5/7) / (5/7) =

(145/7) / (5/7) =

145/7 * 7/5 =

145/5 =

29 miles per gallon

most fuel efficient is A car....it gets 30 miles per gallon

Malik grills a steak 45 minutes longer than he grills a serving of fish. The fish takes twice as long as the asparagus to grill.
stellarik [79]

Vasellasar26,

Penso che tu parli italiano, quindi ecco la risposta alla domanda in italiano. Malik griglia una bistecca 45 minuti in più rispetto a u.na porzione di pesce. Il pesce impiega il doppio del tempo per grigliare gli asparagi. Malik griglia i pomodori tagliati a metà per 3 minuti, che è 3 minuti in più rispetto a quando griglia gli asparagi. 3 33 Questa domanda è composta da 3 parti. Assicurati di completare tutte le parti. A Indicazioni: digita la tua risposta nella casella. Scrivi un'espressione che rappresenti il ​​tempo durante il quale Malik griglia la bistecca se gli asparagi grigliano x minuti.

Assume a plane is flying directly north at 200 mph, but there is a wind blowing west at 23 mph. Part I: Express both the velocit
yuradex [85]
Define i  as a unit vector in the eastern direction.
Define j as a unit vector in the northern direction.

Part I
Because the wind is blowing west, its velocity vector is
 -23i mph or as (-23, 0) mph
Because the plane is traveling north, its velocity vector is
  200j mph or as (0, 200) mph 

Part II
The actual velocity of the plane is the vector sum of the plane and wind velocities.
That is,
200j - 23i or (-23, 200) mph

Part III
The ground speed of the plane is the magnitude of its vector.
The ground speed is
√[200² + (-23)²] = 201.32 mph

The ground speed of the plane is 201.3 mph (nearest tenth)

Not:
The direction of the plane is
 tan⁻¹ 23/200 = 6.56° west of north.

What is 9.5% in a decimal
Delvig [45]
Percentage means 'out of 100 100 '. Convert the decimal number to a fraction by shifting the decimal point in both the numerator and denominator. Since there is 1 1 number to the right of the decimal point, move the decimal point 1 1 place to the right.
