Using proportions, the estimate of the per capita consumption from 2011 was 29.25 gallons.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of the total amount, the measures are related using a rule of three.

The amount in 2012 was an increase of 5.3% from 2011,

105.3% = 1.053 of x,

The consumption per capita was 30.8 gallons,

hence:

1.053x = 30.8

x = 30.8/1.053

x = 29.25 gallons.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

8 or 9

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you first need to take 4/5 of 400 (320).  Then, you can count by 75s for a bit

75students; 2chaperones

150; 4

225; 6

300; 8

now, you have 20 students left over...since one chaperone would watch about 37 kids, you can either divide the remaining kids up among the other chaperones, or you can add one more chaperone to watch the 20 kids.  i don't know what the teacher wants, so either 8 or 9 chaperones

The stream of water from a fountain follows a parabolic path. The stream reaches a maximum height of 7 feet, represented by a ve
xenn [34]

First of all, I'm going to assume that we have a concave down parabola, because the stream of water is subjected to gravity.

If we need the vertex to be at x=4, the equation will contain a (x-4)^2 term.

If we start with y=-(x-4)^2 we have a parabola, concave down, with vertex at x=4 and a maximum of 0.

So, if we add 7, we will translate the function vertically up 7 units, so that the new maximum will be (4, 7)

We have

y = -(x-4)+7

Now we only have to fix the fact that this parabola doesn't land at (8,0), because our parabola is too "narrow". We can work on that by multiplying the squared parenthesis by a certain coefficient: we want

y = a(x-4)^2+7

such that:

  • a
  • when we plug x=8, we have y=0

Plugging these values gets us

0 = a(8-4)^2+7 \iff 16a+7=0 \iff a = -\dfrac{7}{16}

As you can see in the attached figure, the parabola we get satisfies all the requests.
