A triangle has a base of 18.1 kilometres and a height of 17.4 kilometres. What is the area?

157.47km²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

base of 18.1 kilometres

height of 17.4 kilometres

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 18.1 * 17.4

Area of the triangle = 314.94/2

Area of the triangle = 157.47km²

Hence the area of the triangle is 157.47km²

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
