Answer: 5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation: 200 is your total. You start with 50 and the car travels 30 miles per gallon so in the equation it should look like 30g. All together it should look like this 200=50+30g.

From here you slove by subtract 50 from both sides and get:

200 - 50 = 150

50 - 50 = 0

150 = 30g

Then you divide on both sides to get g or gallons alone.

150 / 30 = 5

30 / 30g = g

5 = g

Final answer is 5 gallons

Total gallons needed
1 gallon / 30 miles * 200 miles = 20/3  gallons = 6.67 gallons

<span>gallons used so far : </span>
1 gallon /  30 miles *  50 miles  = 5/3 gallons = 1.67 gallons

<span>remainder  : </span>
<span>20/3 - 5/3 = 15/3 = 5 gallo</span>

if i have a known points of polynomial(2,5),(3,2) and (4,5). what would be the polynomial function will be?
faltersainse [42]
I think you mean "if the points <span>(2,5), (3,2) and (4,5) satisfy an unknown 3rd degree polynomial, what is the polynomial?"

Since 3 roots {2, 3, 4} are known, we might begin by assuming that this poly would have the form y = ax^3 + bx^2 +  cx + d (which has three factors).  Unfortunately, three roots are not enough to determine all four constants {a, b, c, d}.

So, let's assume, instead, that the poly would have the form y = ax^2 + bx + c.  Three given points should make it possible to determine {a, b, c}.

(2,5):  5 = a(2)^2 + b(2) + c => 5 = 4a + 2b + c

(3,2):  2 = a(3)^2 + b(3) + c   => 2 = 9a + 3b + 5 - 4a - 2b

(4,5):  5 = a(4)^2 + b(4) + c   => 5 = 16a + 4b + 5 - 4a - 2b

Now we have two equations in a and b alone, which enables us to solve for a and b:

</span>2 = 9a + 3b + 5 - 4a - 2b becomes -3 = 5a + b
<span>and 
</span>5 = 16a + 4b + 5 - 4a - 2b becomes 0 = 12a + 2b, or 0 = 6a + b, or 0=-6a-b
<span>
Adding this result to -3 = 5a + b, we get -3 = -a, so a =3.
Thus, since -3 = 5a + b, -3 = 5(3) + b, so b = -18

All we have to do now is to find c.  Let's do this using </span>5 = 4a + 2b + c.
We know that a = 3 and b = -18, so  this becomes   5 = 4(3) + 2(-18) + c.

Thus, 5 = 12 - 36 + c, or c = 29.

With a, b and c now known, we can write the poly as y = 3x^2 - 18x + 29.

Now the only thing to do remaining is to verify that each of the three given points satsifies        y = 3x^2 - 18x + 29.  Try this, please.

A binomial distribution has the following properties;
1. There is a fixed number of trials.
2. Each trial is independent of the others.
3.Each trial has a constant probability of success.
4. There are only two possible outcomes, 'success' and 'failure'.

Statements B and D meet the requirements for the variable X to have a binomial distribution.

Help please?????????
sashaice [31]

Answer:

About 4 times the MAD

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go in from right to left moving you finger one dot at a time then the center of the Data Set A is 42.5 beacuse you add the two numbers together (this is because you have an even number of dots) and the center of Data Set B is 20. The MAD for set A is about 5.83 the MAD for set B is about 5.83 also. Now you have to figure out the means. The mean of data set A is 42.5, the mean for data set B is 20. The difference in the means is 22.5 and if you divide the difference of the means by the MAD you will get 3.859348199, or ≈4 times the MAD

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the base of a cylinder is a circle,

area of cylinder= πr²h

Radius, r

= diameter ÷2

= 3 ÷2

= 1.5 inches

Volume of can

= 3.14(1.5)²(5)

= 35.325 in³
