To determine the number of gallons of gasoline that is used, we need to know the rate of usage of gasoline. This rate would describe the number of gasoline in units of volume that is being used per distance in units of length. In this case, we need the rate in units of miles per gallon. From what is asked and the given values, we simply divide the rate to the the total distance that was traveled by the car. We calculate as follows:
Gallons of gasoline = 293 miles / 57 miles / gallon
Gallons of gasoline = 5.14 gallons
Therefore, about 5 gallons of gasoline was consumed by the hybrid car for a distance of 57 miles.
Answer:
It has 5 significant figures.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a = 5.81 m
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
where b= 1.5 and c= 6
a^2 +1.5^2 = 6^2
a^2 +2.25 = 36
Subtract 2.25 from each side
a^2 +2.25-2.25 = 36-2.25
a^2 = 33.75
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(33.75)
a = 5.809475019
We only take the positive root because length must be positive
Answer:
The possible rational roots are
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given the equation 3x^3+9x-6=0 and we have to list all possible rational roots by rational root theorem.
The factors of constant term are 
The factors of leading coefficient are 
From ration root theorem, the possible roots are the ratio of the factors of the constant term and the factors of the leading coefficient. We include both positive as well as negative, hence we must include plus minus.
