Answer:

$5.058 USD/gal
$60.70 USD to fill the tank

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the cost per gallon of gas and the cost for 12 gallons of gas when the cost per liter is $1.31 CDN and the exchange rate is $1.02 USD per CAD.

<h3>Cost per gallon</h3>

The conversion between liters and gallons is ...

1 US gallon = 3.785411784 liters (exactly)

Then the cost conversion is ...

$\dfrac{\$1.31\text{ CAD}}{1\text{ L}}\times\dfrac{3.785411784\text{ L}}{1\text{ gal}}\times\dfrac{\$1.02\text{ USD}}{\$1.00\text{ CAD}}\approx\boxed{\$5.058\text{ USD/gal}}$

The cost per gallon in terms of US dollars is about $5.06.

The cost for 12 gallons will be ...

(12 gal)×($5.058 /gal) ≈ $60.70

It will cost you $60.70 to fill your 12 gallon tank.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The price of gas is routinely specified to tenths of a cent, both in the US and in Canada. As of today, the cost of gas in Canada has declined to $1.864 CAD/liter. At today's exchange rate of about $0.77 USD per CAD, the equivalent price is $5.406 USD/gal.

HI PLEASE HELP ME WITH MY CALCULUS 1 HW? I AM REALLY STUCK. I need help with parts d,e,g.

asambeis [7]

(d) The particle moves in the positive direction when its velocity has a positive sign. You know the particle is at rest when $t=0$ and $t=3$ , and because the velocity function is continuous, you need only check the sign of $v(t)$ for values on the intervals (0, 3) and (3, 6).

We have, for instance $v(1)\approx-0.91$ and $v(4)\approx0.91>0$ , which means the particle is moving the positive direction for $3$ , or the interval (3, 6).

(e) The total distance traveled is obtained by integrating the absolute value of the velocity function over the given interval:

$\displaystyle\int_0^6|v(t)|\,\mathrm dt=\int_0^3-v(t)\,\mathrm dt+\int_3^6v(t)\,\mathrm dt$

which follows from the definition of absolute value. In particular, if $x$ is negative, then $|x|=-x$ .

The total distance traveled is then 4 ft.

(g) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so $a(t)$ is the derivative of $v(t)$ :

$a(t)=v'(t)=-\dfrac{\pi^2}9\cos\left(\dfrac{\pi t}3\right)$

Compute the acceleration at $t=4$ seconds:

$a(t)=\dfrac{\pi^2}{18}\dfrac{\rm ft}{\mathrm s^2}$

(In case you need to know, for part (i), the particle is speeding up when the acceleration is positive. So this is done the same way as part (d).)

for lyla: a. state which formula should be used to solve this problem. b. write the function for lyla. c. determine how much lyl

tresset_1 [31]

The formula is P=Poe^rt and after 20 years the amount will be $14134.41

For Lyla, the formula used to solve the problem is P=Poe^rt

The function is P=3000 e^0.775t

After 20 years lyla amount will be P=3000e^0.775×20=14134.41$

The exponential function is a type of mathematical function which are helpful in finding the growth or decay of population, money, price, etc that are growing or decay exponentially.
Exponents are used in exponential functions, as the name indicates. But take note that an exponential function does not have a constant as its base and a variable as its exponent (if a function has a variable as the base and a constant as the exponent then it is a power function but not an exponential function).
As the name implies, exponential functions employ exponents. The base and exponent of an exponential function, however, are not a constant and a variable, respectively (if a function has a variable as the base and a constant).

Events A and B are independent. find the missing probability<br> P(A)= 1/4 , P(B)= 3/5, P(B I A) =?

Svetach [21]

Answer:

hello : P(A and B) = 3/20

Step-by-step explanation:

events A and B are independent:

P(A and B) = P(A)×P(B)

P(A and B) = (1/4)×(3/5)

P(A and B) =3/20

continu ....

P(B/A)= P(A and B) / P(A)

Roberta grows pea plants, some in shade and some in sun. She picks 8 plants of each type at random and records the heights. Shad

natita [175]

Answer: 2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the mean of Shade's plant heights.

= 7+12+12+8+9+8+8+8/8

= 72/8

Step 2: Calculate the range of Shade's plant heights. Range is highest minus lowest number. This will be:

12 - 7 = 5

Step 3: Calculate the mean of Sun plant heights.

19+24+20+23+24+23+23+20/8

= 176/8

= 22

Step 4: Find the range of Sun plants height.

= 24 - 19 = 5

Step 5: Find the difference of means

= 22 - 9

= 13

Step 6: Divide the difference of means by the range.

= 13 ÷ 5

= 2.6
