48 000 gallons / 2 days = 24 000 gallons per day
24 000 gallons / 24 hours = 1 000 gallons per hour
<span>1 000 gallons / 60 minutes = 16.(6) gallons per minute</span>

Decrease 248 by 30%

Snowcat [4.5K]

Okay this equation really says is what is 30% of 248.

So, lets convert 30% to a fraction, 3/10 which is easier to work with.

All you have to do now is get out a calculator and do 248 *3/10 (or .3) and get 74.4

So subtract 74.4 and get

11. Sarah claims that (x - 4) is a factor of p(x) = x2 +8x - 48.Which equation must

velikii [3]

Answer:

d) p(4) = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(4) = 0:-

p(4) = 4^2 + 8(4) - 48

= 16 + 32 - 48

= 0.

This is an application of the Factor Theorem ( a special case of The Remainder Theorem)

The Factor theorem states that if (x - a) is a factor of P(x) then P(a) = 0.
