Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/4 = 1.25

14 1/2 = 14.5

1.25 gallons is needed to travel 14.5 miles...

14.5 / 1.25 = 11.6  (or 11 3/5) miles per gallon

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A vehicle uses 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline to travel 14 1/2 miles.

I.e

5/4 gallon of gasoline for 29/2miles

1 gallon of gasoline= 29/2 ÷5/4miles

= 29/2 × 4/5miles

= (29×2)/5 miles

= 58/5miles

= 11 3/5 miles

Evaluate using <br> Definite integrals

Since [0,4]=[0,1]\cup(1,4], we can rewrite the integral as

\displaystyle \int_0^1f(t)\;dt + \int_1^4 f(t)\; dt

Now there is no ambiguity about the definition of f(t), because in each integral we are integrating a single part of its piecewise definition:

\displaystyle \int_0^1f(t)\;dt = \int_0^11-3t^2\;dt,\quad \int_1^4 f(t)\; dt = \int_1^4 2t\; dt

Both integrals are quite immediate: you only need to use the power rule

\displaystyle \int x^n\;dx=\dfrac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}

to get

\displaystyle \int_0^11-3t^2\;dt = \left[t-t^3\right]_0^1,\quad \int_1^4 2t\; dt = \left[t^2\right]_1^4

Now we only need to evaluate the antiderivatives:

\left[t-t^3\right]_0^1 = 1-1^3=0,\quad \left[t^2\right]_1^4 = 4^2-1^2=15

So, the final answer is 15.

A store offers 20% off all items. If x is the original purchase price, which expression represents the final price with the disc
denis23 [38]

Answer:

B & D

Step-by-step explanation:

We use percents in decimal form to multiply it with the price. We convert percents into decimals by dividing the percent number by 100. For example, 78% divided by 100 becomes 0.78.

There are two ways to look at it:

  • For finding the price we pay during a sale, we focus on the percent we pay. If 22% off is the sale, then we spend 78% or 100-22=78. If 20% off is the sale, then we pay 80% or 0.80. Multiply that by x an unknown price and we have 0.8x.
  • We can find the percent off by multiplying the price by the percent conversion. So 20% is 0.20. Then subtract it from the original price to find the leftover that we pay. This is x-0.2x.

A force of 10 lb is required to hold a spring stretched 4 in. beyond its natural length. How much work is done in stretching it
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

W = 15/4 ft . ib

Step-by-step explanation:

Force = 10ib

According to hooked law, f(x) = kx

x = 4inches = 4/12 ft

x= 1/3ft

f(x) = 1/3k

10 = 1/3k

k = 30 ib/ft

f(x) = 30x

Workdone = integral of f(x) with its limit

6 inches = 6/12 ft

= 1/2ft

W = integral(1/2 to 0) of 30x

W = 15x^2(1/2 to 0)

W = 15(1/2)^2 - 15(0)^2

W = 15(1/4) - 0

W = 15/4 ft. Ib

<span>Christopher bought a new watch at the store when they were having a 20% off sale.

</span><span>If the regular price of the watch was $48, what did Chris have to pay after the discount was applied?

Let w represent the cost of the watch.  Then the discounted price would be (1.00-0.20)($48) = 0.8($48) = $38.40   (answer)</span>
