Answer:

Answer:160 miles


Explanation:

You can work out this type of question by using the 'unitary' method, which means finding out how much for ONE.


If you set out the steps with short sentences it will be clearer.


 

On 15 gallons, a car can travel 400 miles÷15↓

On 1 gallon, a car can travel 400÷15=262


miles


Once you know the distance travelled on 1 gallon of fuel, you can work out the distance travelled for any number of gallons.


 

On 6 gallons the car can travel

6

×

26

2

3

miles.

(6 times further than on 1 gallon)


6

×

80

3

=

160

George is 1.94 meters tall and wants to find the height of a tree in his yard. He started at the base of the tree and walked 10.
Free_Kalibri [48]
Draw a diagram to illustrate problem as shown below.

Let h = the height of the tree.

Because ΔABC ~ ΔADE, therefore
DE/BC = AD/AB

That is,
h/1.94 = (5.1 + 10.2)/5.1 = 3
h = 1.94*3 = 5.82 m

Answer: 5.82 m
