Both vehicles will never have the same amount of fuel in their tanks

<h3>In how many miles will both vehicles have the same amount of fuel in their tanks?​</h3>

The given parameters are:

Vehicle A

Initial = 22-gallon

Rate = 20 miles per gallon

Vehicle B

Initial = 16.7-gallon

Rate = 30 miles per gallon

The equation of each vehicle is represented as;

Fuel = Initial - Rate * Number of miles

So, we have

y = 22 - 20x --- A

y = 16.7 - 30x --- B

Substitute y = 16.7 - 30x in y = 22 - 20x

16.7 - 30x = 22 - 20x

Collect the like terms

30x - 20x = 16.7 - 22

Evaluate the difference

10x = -5.3

Divide by 10

x = -0.53

Distance cannot be negative

Hence, both vehicles will never have the same amount of fuel in their tanks

Help, pls!!!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with this.  When do you think the mean would NOT be an appropriate measure of center?  Well, maybe your  data points are 1,2,4,1,5,3, 1,000,000.  If you took the mean of that it wouldn't be anywhere near any of the numbers, and would just be in between two.  So not in the center at all.  

The point is you want your data set well balanced.  You want about an equal number on one side as the other.  So let's look at yours.  

The furthest away from the middle has 11 on the left side and 12 on the right.  If youw ere weighing them on a scale and took the 11 and 12 as the weight, they would be pretty close to equal.  The next two are 21 and 23.  Less close, but still only two away.  The middle is the middle, so nothing to balance it out with.  If you look at it as a whole, the right side is 3 more than the left.  I would say 3 is still pretty close when you are looking at "weights" above 10.  So I would say mean is a pretty appropriate measure of center.  

Stats takes a lot of "gut feelings" like this.  Thinking, "yeah, these are pretty close" so you'll get the hang of it pretty soon.

Please answer correctly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will mark brainliest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

U is a point in the line segment TV

TV = TU + UV

TV = 3x

UV = x + 1

TU = x

3x = (x+1) + x

3x = 2x + 1

3x - 2x = 1

x = 1

Length of TU = 1

Hope this will help..

True or False? A direction angle will always be a value between -90° and 90°.
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

  False

Step-by-step explanation:

The short reason the statement is false is, "it depends on what you mean by <em>direction angle</em>".

The long reason the statement is false is that "direction angle" sometimes refers to a navigation direction that is specified in terms of compass directions. For example, you might have N20°E, or S80°E. The angle measure in such directions is 0 to 90°. It does not take on a negative value when the direction is expressed in the standard form, an angle east or west from north or south.

An arbitrary vector is an expression that has a magnitude and direction. Such a quantity can have either or both values be positive or negative and of <em>any magnitude</em>. There is no reason for direction to be restricted to values in the range ±90°.
