Answer:

(1 gallon)/(100 ft^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1 gallon)/(100 ft^2) is a good conversion factor.  We could also use (100 ft^2)/(1 gallon), but I like the first, since the calculation is simpler:

(300ft^2)*/(1 gallon)/(100 ft^2) = 3 gallons  [I like multiplication better than division, and especially here, since 300/100 is 3, if my memory is correct.

Which values of k are solutions to the inequality StartAbsoluteValue negative k minus 2 EndAbsoluteValue less-than 18? Check all
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

You could just replace all the given possible values of k in the inequality and see which ones are solutions, but let's solve this in a more interesting way:

First, remember how the absolute value works:

IxI = x if x ≥ 0

IxI = -x if x ≤ 0

Then if we have something like:

IxI < B

We can rewrite this as

-B < x < B

Now let's answer the question, here we have the inequality:

I-k -2I < 18

Then we can rewrite this as:

-18 < (-k - 2) < 18

Now let's isolate k:

first, we can add 2 in the 3 parts of the inequality:

-18 + 2 < -k - 2 + 2 < 18 + 2

-16 < -k < 20

Now we can multiply all sides by -1, remember that this also changes the direction of the signs, then:

-1*-16 > -1*-k > -1*20

16 > k > -20

Then k can be any value between these two limits.

So the correct options (from the given ones) are:

k = -16

k = -8

k = 0

How far does the unicycle move if the wheel turns once?
algol [13]

The unicycle moves a distance of 251.20cm if the wheel turn once and the wheel must rotate 32 times to cover a distance of 100m

<h3>Circumference of a circle</h3>

The formula for calculating the circumference of a circle is given as:

C = 2pi r

r is the radius of the circle

a) r = 80/2 = 40cm

C = 2(3.14)(40)
C = 251.20 cm

Hence the unicycle moves a distance of 251.20cm if the wheel turn once

b) Number of revolution * 2pi r = distance covered

n * 2(3.14)(50) = 10000
314n = 10000
n = 10000/314

n =32

Hence the wheel must rotate 32 times to cover a distance of 100m
