Find the length of the third side to the nearest 10th

9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagorean theorem a^2+b^2=c^2, we can say that 3^2+b^2=10^2.

Simplify and you get 9+b^2=100. Subtract 9 from both sides and you get b^2=91. When you take the square root you get 9.53939... round to the nearest tenth and the missing side is 9.5.

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
