What is Unitary method?

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Given:

thickness of penny = 0.0625

a) if  5 billion pennies minted

Then, height of the stack would be

= 5,000,000,000 x 0.0625

=31,25,00,000 miles

= 31,25,00,000 / 12 x 5280

=4932.13 miles

b) In the past 100 years, nearly 500 billion pennies have been minted.

Now, the height of stack

= 4932.13  x 100

=493213 miles

c) let  x be the number of pennies in a stack which reaches the moon then we have the equation

x × 0.0625 =239,000miles.

x =(239,000 / 0.0625 miles)  ×5280 ×12

x = 38,24,000 x 5280 x 12

x  = 2,42,28,86,40,000

kilometers.
Reset Next

Answers

Answer: I think it's 72 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not really sure?????

The total distance that John’s float travels is 71.02 kilometers.

What is distance formula?

The distance formula which is used to find the distance between two points in a two-dimensional plane is also known as the Euclidean distance formula. On 2D plane the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is Distance = √[(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²].

Given that, John’s float goes from point A to B, then to C, then to D, and back to A.

Here, DC =9 kilometers, AD=9 kilometers

A(-7, 5) and B(3, 2)

AB=√[(3+7)²+(3-5)²]

=√109

= 10.44 kilometers

B(3, 2) and C(2, -4)

So, BC =√[(2-3)²+(-4-3)²]

= √50

= 7.07

Now, distance =10.44+7.07+9+9

= 35.51 kilometers

If he repeats this route twice, the total distance that his float travels is

kilometers.

The total distance =2×35.51

= 71.02 kilometers

Therefore, the total distance that John’s float travels is 71.02 kilometers.

= 16

The number of friends called on, Sunday = 16 × 4

= 64
