The Silver Lake Reservoir in California is being drained to make way for an underwater pipeline. The reservoir holds 400400400 m

illion gallons of water, and it is estimated that the drainage will take at least 252525 days. If the water is drained at a constant rate, what is the maximum rate of drainage, in millions of gallons per day?

Divide the total the lake holds by the number of days:

400 million / 25 days = 16 million gallons per day.

Mr. Woo wants to ship a fishing rod to his son that is 42 inches long. He has a box that measures 10 inches by 10 inches by 40 i
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The 42 inches long fishing rod will fit in the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal of a cuboidal box is the largest measurement inside the box.

Now, the dimensions of the box are 10 inches by 10 inches by 40 inches.

Therefore, the diagonal length of the box is \sqrt{10^{2} + 10^{2} + 40^{2}} = 42.42 inches which is greater than 42 inches.

Hence, the 42 inches long fishing rod will fit in the box. (Answer)

It takes Wayne 1/10 hours to walk a 1/6 mile park loop. What is Wayne's unit rate, in miles per hour
olchik [2.2K]
To solve this problem, we should set up a proportion, letting x represent our unknown number of miles that Wayne walks in one hour.

1/6 mile / 1/10 hours = x miles / 1 hour

Now we use cross-products or the multiplication of the numerator of one fraction times the denominator of the other fraction, setting these two numbers equal.  The resulting equation is:

1/6 = 1/10x

Finally, we must divide both sides by 1/10 to cancel it out on the right side of the equation and get the variable x alone.

x = 5/3 or 1 2/3

Therefore, Wayne walks 1 2/3 miles per hour.

1. Write 3,876,943,000 using scientific notation.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

3.876943x10^9

7.317x10^-4

Step-by-step explanation:

3,876,943,000

Put the decimal at the end

3,876,943,000.

Move it so only 1 number is before the decimal

3.876943000

We moved it 9 places, so that is the exponent

We moved it to the left, so the exponent is positive

The three zeros at the end can be dropped because they are the last numbers to the right of the decimal

3.876943x10^9

0.0007317

Move it so only 1 number is before the decimal

00007.317

We moved it 4 places, so that is the exponent

We moved it to the right, so the exponent is negative

The four zeros at the left can be dropped because they are the last numbers to the left of the whole number

7.317x10^-4

After learning the midpoint construction Sally realizes that she could determine one fourth the length of a segment how could sh
Viefleur [7K]
The midpoint of two points is the point which divides the line segment joining the two points into two equal parts.

Suppose, we have a line segment AB with a point C, between point A and point B such that the distance AC is equal to the distance CB, then we say that point C is the midpoint of line AB.

Suppose, we have another point D between point A and point C, such that the distance AD is equal to the distance DC, then we say that point D is the midpoint of AC.

Notice that point D is a fourth of line segment AB.

Thus, AD is <span>one fourth the length of segment AB.

Therefore, one fourth the length of a segment can be obtained by evaluating the midpoint of the midpoint of the line segment.
