Which of the following is the best estimate of the number of centimeters (cm) in 9 yards? (Note: 1 yard=3 feet; 1 foot =12 inches; 1 inch =2.54 cm)

C organizes the collection correctly.

We use the given slope to find the minimum length of the ramp. In this case, slope is the ratio of height to length of the lamp. Thus,

If we let x be the minimum length of the ramp. Then,

Substituting the value of slope into the above equation results in,

Solve for value of x by cross-products

X = 18 Feet

Thus, the minimum length of the ramp needed to provide access to a door that is 1.5 high is 18 feet.

The length of the chair could be appropriately measured in centimeters. Kilometers are used to measure long distances while micrometers could be used to measure the length of small microorganism in microbiology lab. However, milligrams are used to measure the masses of small quantities.

we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.

Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows

(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})

If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})

Cross-multiply to find the value of x.

(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})

(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)

(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)

Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.

We are asked to determine Japheth’s uncle’s age relating to Japheth’s age.

First, express Japheth’s uncle’s age in terms of Japheth’s age as follows

Japheth’s age=k

Japheth’s uncle’s age, u = 3k-10.

Thus, the relationship between Japheth’s uncle’s age to that of Japheth is u=3k-10.

Here, we are required to find the unit of measuring mass. The SI unit of mass is kilogram but other derived units are grams, milligrams, microgram and more.

A kilogram is a large quantity for measuring heavier objects but grams can used to measure small and light objects such as the mass of the mobile phone. Therefore, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a mobile phone.

Let the unknown length of the x. The resulting triangle is shown below.

We use the Pythagoras theorem as follows to find the unknown value of x as:

Thus, the value of unknown side of the triangle is 21.8 feet.

Based on the given scenario, the outcome of measuring the daily dollar rate is the decline in investment, stock prices, and forex exchange. The three outcomes are dependent variables while the dollar rate is the independent variable.

The percentage change in weight is found in three steps below:

Absolute change in weight=final weight-initial weight

Absolute change in weight=(left|120-153 ight|=left|-33 ight|=33)

Relative change in weight=(frac{absolute change}{initial weight}=frac{33}{153}=0.216)

Percent change=relative change * 100%

Percent change=0.216*100%=21.6%

The percent change in weight lost is 21.6 %, which is about 22%.

We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.

First, we convert 2 ¼ into improper fraction as:

Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:

Solve the value of x by cross-products

Dividing both sides by 60, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 81/16 cups, which is equal to 5 1/16 cups.
