What is the correct unit rate?

The correct unit rate = 2 pound per gallon

What was Henry's likely error?

Henry's likely error was that instead of dividing the fractions he multiplied them

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry incorrectly said the rate 1/5 pound/1/10 gallon can be written as the unit rate 1/50 pound per gallon .

What is the correct unit rate?

The correct unit rate

= 1/5 / 1/10

= 1/5 ÷ 1/10

= 1/5 × 10/1

= 2 pound per gallon

What was Henry's likely error?

Henry's likely error was that instead of dividing the fractions he multiplied them

1/5 / 1/10

Henry calculated it : = 1/5 x 1/10 = 1/50

This is wrong.

The correct step is given below

1/5 / 1/10

= 1/5 ÷ 1/10

= 1/5 × 10/1

= 2 pound per gallon

Answer from: Quest

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.

Drag and drop the answers into the boxes to complete this informal argument explaining how to derive the formula for the volume of a cone. since the volume of a cone is part of the volume of a cylinder with the same base and height, find the volume of a cylinder first. the base of a cylinder is a circle. the area of the base of a cylinder is , where r represents the radius. the volume of a cylinder can be described as slices of the base stacked upon each other. so, the volume of the cylinder can be found by multiplying the area of the circle by the height h of the cylinder. the volume of a cone is of the volume of a cylinder. therefore, the formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 1/2 1/3πr^2h 1/2πr^2h πr^2h πr^2
